Ca2+ ——- in the particular compartment of the cell is the signal detected by the next member in the signaling cascade.
Ca2+ concentration in the particular compartment of the cell is the signal detected by the next member in the signaling cascade.
tf cell quiet
When Ca2+ concentration increases (10-6 M or greater
F
When cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration is low (10-7 M)
When Ca2+ concentration increases (10-6 M or greater), sensor molecules detect the rise and activate specific responses.
Cell activation depends on a —— between calcium—- and calcium- — mechanisms.
Cell activation depends on a balance between calcium-OFF and calcium-ON mechanisms.
2 ways Ca off mechanism remove Ca
pumping it from the cell
or back into internal stores
Na+ /Ca2+ exchanger (NCX)
or antiporter Ca2+ -ATPase (PMCA)
Plasma membrane proteins that are calcium pumps
Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA)
Intracellular calcium pumps
Low affinity
High transport rate
Na+ / Ca2+ Exchanger (NCX)

High affinity Low transport rate
Ca2+-ATPase (PMCA)

SERCA
Ca in with ATP breakage

TF CA binding proteins only exist in the SER
F in SER and cytoplasm(buffer action)
Calcium-ON mechanisms add Ca2+ to the cytoplasm from ——- sources and —– stores
Calcium-ON mechanisms add Ca2+ to the cytoplasm from extracellular sources and internal stores
(favored by large electrochemical gradient).
Calcium on mechanism that add Ca to cytoplasm
Ligand-gated ion channel receptors
cation selective
let Ca into cytoplasm
Voltage-gated channels
(action-potential responsive)
let Ca into cytoplasm
universal Intracellular calcium channels
1,4,5-Inositol trisphosphate receptors (IP3R)
skeletal and cardiac muscle Intracellular calcium channels
Ryanodine receptors (RyR)
AP or
voltage gated Ca channel
allow Ca into cell
Ryanodine Receptor (RyR)
and 1,4,5-Inositol Trisphosphate Receptor (IP3R)
both need to be triggered by Ca to release Ca from their compartments
Various —— -binding proteins act as molecular —– for detecting increased cellular concentration of —– .
Various calcium-binding proteins act as molecular sensors for detecting increased cellular concentration of Ca2+ .
Activated sensors stimulate a variety of —– proteins that regulate specific cellular functions.
Activated sensors stimulate a variety of downstream proteins that regulate specific cellular functions.
found in all cells where it mediates many regulatory pathways.
Calmodulin (CaM)
restricted to skeletal and cardiac muscle where it regulates contraction by controlling actin-myosin interaction
TnC
Two major Ca2+ sensors are
Two major Ca2+ sensors are tropinin C and calmodulin.
loops bind Ca
in Calmoduline
and middle alpha helix stretches

tf Ca2+/CaM-Dependent Protein Kinase is not at all active when it doesnt have Ca 2+ CaM attached to it.
F
it is 80% active although inh portion of it is free and open
Ca2+/CaM-Dependent Protein Kinase (CaM-Kinase II)
totally inactive when phospatase strips off PO4 from it3
bind inh domain of Ca2+/CaM-Dependent Protein Kinase (CaM-Kinase II)
Ca 2+/CaM
activation of Ca2+/CaM-Dependent Protein Kinase (CaM-Kinase II)
prompts autophos and Ca2+/CaM-Dependent Protein Kinase (CaM-Kinase II) is fully active
Tf 1st Ca is release then CaM is released from Ca2+/CaM-Dependent Protein Kinase when it is fully active
T renders it partially active
