876
intracellular receptor and its signal; example
876,
selective response of cell to signals for cell regulation
signal has different responses in a cell but… expression of needed response lang for cell regulation 876
specific combination of extracellular signals
876
neurotransmitter acetylcholine and its different effects; reason for difference
877
3 major classes of cell-surface receptor proteins
878
cell-surface receptors as signal transducers
878
ion-channel-coupled receptors
synaptic signaling, nerve and muscle cells (878)
GPCR
indirect regulation of activity (878)
G protein
mediator of receptor and target (878)
enzyme-coupled receptor
functions as enzyme or associate directly with enzymes (879)
enzyme-coupled receptor as protein kinase
879
first messengers
879
intracellular signaling proteins as molecular switches
879
molecular switch by phosphorylation
879
protein kinase and phosphatase
879
two main types of protein kinase in eukaryotes
879
kinase cascades
880
two types of protein phosphatases
880
GTP-binding proteins as molecular switch
880
two major types of GTP-binding proteins
880
GAPs and GEFs
880
2 inhibitory signals = positive signal
881
many signals around thus unwanted cross-talk and interference between intracellular signaling systems
specificity and affinity (881)
docking sites
for specificity and affinity 881
scaffold proteins; 3 mechanisms
localization of the molecules into signaling complexes (882-883)
induced proximity
883
interaction domains
lego ng molbio 883
how did modular interaction domains presumably facilitate the evolution of new signaling pathways?
because it can be inserted in many locations without disturbing the protein’s folding or function; connection to additional pathways (883)
signaling proteins as adaptors
883
signaling complex using modular interaction domains/ lego in insulin receptor
884
what is the function of an intracellular signaling system?
885
what are the 7 basic signaling properties?
885
explain the speed of a response
depends on the nature of the intracellular signaling molecules (886)
what is turnover?
rate of destruction (887)
sigmoidal response to signal concentration; useful where?
must go beyond a threshold; useful for filtering to reduce inappropriate responses to low-level background signals (888)
hyperbolic response to signal concentration; useful where?
smoothly graded response; fine-tuning of metabolic processes by some hormones (888)
all-or-none response to signal concentration
turns on completely and irreversibly when a threshold is reached (888)
epinephrine example in both activation and inhibition of kontrabida ng activation resulting to sharpened response
GPCR, glycogen breakdown in skeletal muscles (888)
