synthesis of cAMP by
|
adenylate cyclase
-rapidly catalyzes cAMP synthesis from ATP |
|
cAMP is rapidly hydrolyzed back to AMP by
|
cAMP phophodiesterase
|
|
cAMP-dependent Protein Kinase (PKA) mediates ____
|
most of the effects of cAMP
|
|
PKA protein kinase is made of
|
4 different subunits
with 2 regulatory subunits |
|
type 1 is in the
|
cytosol
|
|
type II is
|
bound via special anchoring proteins to PM, NM, mitochondrial OM, and MT
|
|
in all cases all types move to ____
|
nucleus upon activation. once there, catalytic subunits phosphorylate gene regulatory proteins
|
|
gene transcription is activated by a
|
rise in cyclic AMP concentration
|
|
beta-adgeneric receptor is a ___
|
g-signal protein receptor responsible for changes in response to stress
|
|
3 types of inositol phospholipids
|
phosphatidylinositol
PI 4-phosphate PI 4,5 biphosphate |
|
some G-proteins activate the IP signaling pathway
|
phospholipase
c-beta activation |
|
the generation of second messengers
steps 1-3 |
generation of PI
generation of PIP generation of PIP2 |
|
PIP2 is present in ____ amounts and ____ is crucial
|
small amounts but breakdown is crucial
|
|
The hydrolysis of PI(4,5)P2 by
|
phopholipase c-beta
|
|
in step 2 PIP2 goes to
|
DAG which activates protein kinase
and IP3 (inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate) which releases calcium from the ER |
|
termination of initial ca2+ response?
|
?
|
|
how many branches are there of the inositol phospholipid pathway
|
2
what are they? |
|
ca2+ functions as a ___
|
ubiquitous intracellular messenger
|
|
generation of IP3 is coupled to ____
|
calcium release from ER
|
|
the 3 steps of generation of IP3 are 1.
|
IP3 rapidly diffuses from the PM thru the cytosol binds to IP3-gated calcium release channels present in the ER
|
|
step 1 proceeds to step 2 to generate
|
an autocatalytic, self-propagating stimulation of calcium release
|
|
the response is ____
|
quelled upon the dephosphorylation of IP3 by a specific phosphatase and the reduction of cytosolic calcium by calcium-dependent pumps in the ER and PM
|
|
there are 3 types of ca2+ channels which mediate this ca2+ channels signaling
|
voltage-gated (membrane depolarizing)
|
|
2
|
IP3-gated, g-protein mediated
|
|
3
|
ryanodine-gated (react to changes in PM potential and release ca2+ from the SR, thereby stimulating the contraction of muscle cells)
|
|
what are the main way eukaryotic cells maintain a verry low concentration of free ca2+ tightly
|
actively pumped out of cytosol
pumped into ER or mitochondria molecules in cell bind free ca2+ |
|
calmodulin
|
a ubiquitous regulator of ca2+ dependent processes (multipurpose intracellular Ca2+ receptor)
|
|
calmodulin is a small
|
(17kD) soluble protein, present in all eukaryotic cells
-1% of the cellular protein -highly conserved from yeast to humans -mediates a variety of Ca2+ regulated processes |
|
calmodulin contains 4 high ___
|
affinity ca2+ binding sites
undergoes conformational change when Ca2+ binds -binds various target enzymes to allosterically activate |
|
CaM-kinases mediate many of
|
the actions of ca2+ in animal cells
|
|
binding of the 4 sites in animal cells
|
binds inhibitory region which changes shape, become activated, able to take phosphate available from ATP and phosphorylate itself (helps molecule remember its conformation)
|
|
rhodopsin is a
|
g-transducin
-has to do with vision and also smell regulate c-n-g Ion Channels |
|
light to rhodopsin -->
|
g-transducin --> activates cGMP Phosphodiesterase --> decrease in cGMP
|
|
Light to rhodopsin is an
