A

Partial agonists and antagonists can bind ot both
Inverse agonists can bind to small r
Agonists can bind to R
Lig-R can transduce when agonist is around
Lig.r cannot transduce with inverse agonist binds to r
Partial agonist
Depends on which state it binds to
To R can transduce
To r cannot transduce
Preference to bind here with active agonist
Partial agonist binds to r
When antagonist is present
Partial agonist binds to R
Antagonist
Binds to either r or R
antagonist plus R can not transduce, no conformational change

57
Q

hydropathy plots

A
X axis is aa by position
Tells what each aa is/does 
Higher number more hydrophobic
Charged > polar so charged more negative 
Polar and charged are negative 
So above x axis is in the membrane 
Doesnt show which orientatio
