Receptors Hormones and cell signaling Flashcards
1
Q
agonist
A
mimic the fuction of natural hormone, by binding (typicallt stronger than normal) leadin to a celllular response
2
Q
antagonist
A
binds at normal bindingsite but do not lead to a cellular response
inhibit signaling by natural ligand
3
Q
immuneprecipitation p. 673
A
antibody affinity
used to measure activity of particular kinase in cell extract
using beads that bind the specific kinases
