Q

What are the 4 components of signal transduction?

A

Signal
Receptor
Transduction pathways
Targets

21
Q

Signals can be 3 things. Name them

A

Soluble
Linked
Physical

22
Q

There are 7 receptor families. Name them and briefly describe them.

A

G-Pro - Ligand binding to G-Pro
Receptor tyrosine kinase - ligand binds and tyr-kinase autophosphorylates
Receptor guanylyl Cyclase - ligand - second messenger cGMP
Gated ion - Ionotropic
Adhesion - Molecules in ecm, changes conformation
Nuclear receptor - hormone binding
Cytokine receptor

*All these are metabotropic, except for Ion channels. They are ionotropic.

23
Q

What dramatically impacts signaling?

A

Ligand conc.

24
Q

What major roles does the membrane play in signaling?

A

Receptor localization
Ligand exposure
Signaling complex formation
Endocytosis

25
Q

Signal promotion does what?

Signal inhibition does what?

A

Put complexes together

Move away complexes

26
Q

Two types of lipid rafts. Name them.

A

Caveolar

Planar

27
Q

Which endocytosis happens in non-lipid raft domains?

A

Clathrin-mediated endocytosis

28
Q

Signaling cascade. Name it.

A
First messenger
Receptor
Signal transducer
Primary effector
Second messenger
Secondary effector
Signaling cascade
29
Q

MAPK Signaling. What happens?

A

Ras activates MAPKKK
Phosphorylated to MAPKK and then to MAPK
Then sent to diff. Proteins.

30
Q

JAK-STAT. Name it.

A

Phosphate tail of receptor brings “STAT” in when cytokine binds. STAT binds another STAT, then sent to nucleus to activate transcription.

31
Q

PI3K. Name it.

A

PIP2 phosphorylated to PIP3. PIP3 then affects PDK1 and AKT.

32
Q

Phospholipase C Signaling. Name it.

A

Tied with G-Pro signaling. PIP2 cleaved to DAG and IP3 comes off and causes release of Ca2+. Ca2+ interacts with PKC.

33
Q

Epinephrine signaling. Low conc. Name it.

A

Epi binds beta-adrenergic receptor. G-protein activates and binds adenylyl cyclase which interacts with ATP to make cAMP.

34
Q

Epi/Norepi high concentration. Name it.

A

Norepi/epi binds alpha1-adrenergic receptor and the g-pro is activated. It binds to PLC and PIP2 activates DAG and IP3. DAG interacts with PKCi to make PKCa, while IP3 causes Ca2+ interactions.

35
Q

Insulin cell division. Name it.

A

Tyrosine kinase is bound and IRS, Grb, Sos, ras, Raf, MEK, ERK, (Into nuc) SRF/ELK.

36
Q

Insulin metabolism. Name it.

A

IRS activates PI3K and that converts PIP2 to PIP3.

PKB is phosphorylated by PDK1 which then phosphorylated GSK3, which is not inactive. Glycogen is synthesized.

PKB stims the GLUT4 to increase uptake of glucose.
