Q

signal pathways are kept seperate by _ because

A

scaffold proteins because MAP modules use same enzymes for different responses in the cell so cant have cross talk

18
Q

The PI-3-kinase-Akt signaling pathway plays a key role

A

in promoting the survival and growth of
many cell types

19
Q

PI 3 Kinase pathway

while thing

A
  • Activated RTKs recruit and activate PI 3-kinase.
  • Activated PI 3-kinase phosphorylates the phosphoinositide PIP2 to produce PIP3.
  • Two serine/threonine kinases, Akt and PDK1 are brought into close proximity by binding to PIP3 via PH domains.
  • Akt is phosphorylated on a serine by a third kinase, mTOR, resulting in a conformational change which now allows Akt to be phosphorylated on a threonine by PDK1.
  • Activated Akt dissociates from the plasma membrane and phosphorylates various target proteins.
20
Q

one target of Akt is _ which _ when not phosphorylated. Akt phosphor by _

A

One target of Akt is the
cytosolic protein Bad which, in its non-phosphorylated state,** promotes cell death via
apoptosis**. Phosphorylation of Bad by Akt creates phospho-serine-binding sites for a
scaffold protein called 14-3-3. Binding to 14-3-3 sequesters Bad, keeping it from acting and
thereby promoting cell survival.

21
Q

JAK pathway

A
  • two JAK brought lose together
  • transphosphorylation increases activity levels
  • phosphorylation from active JAKs to make docking sites
  • STATs bind to these sites
  • phosphorylated STATs disassociate
  • STAT form dimer and go to nucleus
22
Q

JAK and STATs are inactivated when

A

tyrosine phosphatases dephosphorylate their phosphotyrosines

23
Q

The JAK-STAT pathway provides one of the

A

most direct routes from cellsurface receptors to the nucleus and altered gene transcription.

24
Q

TGF beta binding pathway

A
  • TGF beta protein binds to receptor 1 and 2
  • this brings receptors together
  • Type 2 receptors phosphorylate type 1
  • activated type 1 directly bind and activate Smad family protein
  • receptor and Smad complex endocytosed
25
activation route Smad receptor complex
* endocytosis takes place via clathrin coated vesicles * deliver to early endosome * SARA anchoring protein binds
26
inactive route Smad receptor complex
* depends on caveolae and leads to Ub tagging * R activated Smads dissociate from receptors * bind to Smad4 * RSmad/Smad4 complex that inhibit Smad
27
A trimeric GTP-binding protein with GTPase activity that couples surface receptors to membrane-associated enzymes or ion channels.
G protein
28
Signaling process involving the interaction between signal molecules on the surface of one cell and receptor proteins on the surface of another cell.
contact dependent
29
Protein that organizes groups of interacting intracellular signaling proteins into signaling complexes.
scaffold protein
30
Protein domain used by intracellular signaling proteins to bind PIP3.
PH domain
31

GEF
32
Alteration of sensitivity following prolonged stimulation, reducing a cell’s response to that level of stimulus
adaptation
33
Enzyme that phosphorylates specific amino acids of target proteins.
PTK
34
Control mechanism whereby a product of a signaling response acts to stimulate its own production.
positive feedback loop
35
Intracellular signaling proteins bind to _ via specific interaction domains such as pleckstrin homology (PH).
PIP3
36
The response of a target cell will occur more _ if it involves changes in proteins already present in the cell rather than changes to gene expression and synthesis of new proteins.
rapidly
37
Most of the effects of an increase in cytosolic cAMP levels are mediated by
cyclic-AMP dependent protein kinase (PKA).
38
The head domains of these structures make transient, ATP-dependent attachments to the B tubules of microtubule doublets.
axonemal dyneins
39
Kinesin-mediated movement of vesicles and organelles from nerve cell bodies towards axon terminals.
anterograde
40
Protofilaments are a structural component of
all cytoskeletal filaments.
41
The head (motor) domains of dyneins bind to _ and also
microtubules and also bind and hydrolyze ATP.
