Exam 4 Flashcards
Autocrine
self cell signaling
Paracrine
close cell signaling
Endorine
further cell signaling (bloodstream)
Sensor
Histidine Protein Kinase
Effector
Response regulator Aspartic acid protein kinase
Kinase
protein which can transfer a phosphate anion to another protein.
Phsophatase
proteins which remove phosphate from another protein.
Quorum Sensing
density dependent bacteria signaling, sends out autoinducer which migrates back into the bacteria.
outside sensing of bacteria concentration
Auto Inducer
signaling molecules thar are produced in responce to changes in cell-population density.
cAMP
secondary messenger in beta-adrenergic receptor.
Mitogen
small bioactive protein or peptide that induces a cell to begin cell division or enhances the rate division (mitosis)
Half life
DAG
PIP2 and water bind to DAG. it paired with IP3 turn off glycogen synthesis
G-Protein coupled receptor
beta-adrenergic receptor starts signaling. Gby binds to bARK which works with PKA to phosphorylate the GPCR cytoplasmic tail. This can now be internalized and either degraded in the lysosome or recycled into the plasma membrane.
G-protein
Heterotrimeric: Gaby.
G alpha contain built-in GTPase activity
Gby remain associated
Arrestin
binds to inhibit further signal transduction. binds to the phosphorylated GPCR cytoplasmic tail. this complex in internalized by endocytic vesicles in the cytoplasm. It the dissociates and can rebuild another GPCR.
Adenylyl cyclase
membrane protein that takes signal from Galpha to make cAMP
beta- adrenergic receptor
start of the GPCR signaling. Ligand in epinephrine binds releasing Gby.
Phosphatidylinositol
- is phosphorylated to make PI(4,5) P2
- PI specific phospholipase cleaves the phosphorylated inositol form the lipid producing 2 secondary messengers: cIP3 and membrane bound diacyl glycerol
- IP3 is ligand for Ca2+ on smooth ER, causing Ca2+ release
- DAG can activate protein kinase C which is a serine-threonine kinase
Inositol Triphosphate
secondary messenger made from PI specific phospholipase, is ligand for Ca2+ release in smooth ER
Protein kinase C
a serine-threonine kinase made from from DAG activating it.
Phospholipase
Receptor Tyrosine Kinase
receptors which auto-phosphorylate and pass signal to cell effector.
MAP
Mitogen Activated Protein
activated my Raf which is activated by Ras.
phosphorylation kinase cascade.
Auto-phosphorylation
Occurs in insulin receptor which after auto-phosphorylation phosphorylates Shc which binds to GRB2 assisting with SOS binding to Ras.
Receptor Tyrosine Linked Kinase
receptors which lack kinase activity. These receptors rely on another molecule to phosphorylate and pass the signal to the cell effector.
Ras
inactive when GDP bound
active when GTP bound
inhibited by GDI
mediated by GEF on and GAP off
activate Raf which activates MAP
Guanine dissociation inhibitor
inhibits conversion of GDP to GTP in Ras
GTPase activating protein
GAP- mediates GTP to GDP
Guanine exchange factor
GEF- mediates GDP to GTP
maturating promoting factor
Ras Activated Factor`
activated by Ras. is MAPKK, initiates MAP
Nuclear Receptor
Response element
