BIO 1140 Lecture Notes - Lecture 13: Bcl-2-Associated X Protein, Protein Isoform, Futile Cycle
Document Summary
Gf bind to receptor, dimerize, autophosphorylate and recruits adapter protein, recruit ras, increase affinity to gtp, activated causes secondary messenger mapk which leads to ap-1. Ip3 can also bind to channel and allow calcium to be released. Phospholipase c has sh2 domain so doesn"t need adapter, bind directly to receptor which activates enzyme, enzyme has a target pl called pip2, binds to it and releases. Ip3 and dag (both have ability to function as second messenger); ip3 binds to calcium channel on er (leads to apoptosis, activate protein kinases (protein kinase. C), help kreb"s cycle, muscle contraction, releasing cell vesicles; all pathways interrelated) Because it is a fatty acid anchored protein. 2012 chemistry nobel for their work on structure and function of gpcrs: brian kobilka crystallography structure, robert lefkowitz md-biochemist, signalisation adrenergic receptors, worked with adrenal gland. Receptor for ligand on extracellular side, change conformation for the 7 spans.
