A

attenuation

93

G protesin hyrodlyze GTP to GDP
Phospholyrlyation is done or undone
metabolize 2 messenger
ions sequesterd or pumped out
95
Q

Receptor mediated endocytosis is:

Q

OCcurs when signaling system responds to intensity and frequency of stimulation; response is proportion to stimulus

A

Adaption

97
Q

If there is no ligand, receptors may:

A

not be localized in specific location on plasma membrane

98
Q

receptor mediated endocytosis to regulate number or amount of receptors that respond to signal
can promote degradation of both receptor and ligand

A

Adaption–because it’s induced by the binding of ligand to the receptor

99
Q

How does endocytosis of ligand-receptor complex occur

This is adaption

Done by migration of complexes to electron dense region of membrane coated in clathrin

100
Q

What happens once a receptor-ligand complex is engulfed in clarthin coated pit?

A

be recycled or

degraded

104
Q

In ________ desensitization, signaling by stimulated receptor is attenuated

A

HOMOLOGOUS

105
Q

This occurs due to covalent modification of ligand-bound receptor

A

Homologous desensitization

106
Q

In receptor desensitization, signaling by the ______ is attenuated

A

stimulated
basically receptor gets stimulated, gets signaled to get phospohrlyed, then something binds to it, so as a reslt of it’s signaling, it gets blocked from signaling

107
Q

In _______ desensitization, signaling by both the stimulated receptor and by other teypes of receptors is attenuated

A

heterologous

108
Q
