Q

Gq

A

Signal molecule ligand

GTP hits Phospholipase C which splits it into IP3 and PKC.

IP3 opens Calcium channel, activates PKC via Ca and also activates calmodulin.

Q

How does cGMP PDE inhibitors work?

A

They increase conc. of cellular cGMP which prolongs its effect. Smooth muscle relaxation and vasodilation.

Q

Cholera toxins

A

Prevents inactivation of Gs

Add ADP ribosylation to Gs, always active GTPase, AC hyperactive, Making lots of cAMP activating CFTR, Cl- channels open. Loss of electrolytes and water, diarrhea.

Q

Nitric Oxide

A

Diffuses to neighboring muscles and act. guanylate cyclase leading to production of cGMP. Causes smooth muscle relaxation and vasodilation.

17
Q

Antihistamines

A

treat allergies by inhibiting GPCR

18
Q

Cancers stemming from G proteins mutations such as

A

RAS, GEFs or GAPs

19
Q

How does Herceptin control cancer?

A

Herceptin targets HER2 gene which is a family of the RTK
