Document Summary

Lipid-soluble steroid hormones: bind to receptors inside the cell, causes shape change, passes through the nuclear membrane, attaches to the target dna. Changes gene activity within the dna and alters gene expression: in order for a cell to express what it needs, signaling has to occur, no receptor=no change in gene expression. Signal processing: not all hormones diffuse through the membrane, receptor protein embedded in the lipid bilayer, signal transduction pathway. Signal gets ampli ed on the cell surface when it binds with the protein: g-proteins or enzyme-linked receptors: Intercellular signal binds to the protein on the lipid bilayer (transmembrane protein) Signal activates an intracellular signals which can activate four other signals which continues to activate speci c genes or proteins. February 29-march 2, 2016: 2. changes the shape of the g-protein and separates from receptor, 3. Gdp gets kicked off and gtp molecule is added to the g protein: 4.

QUESTION 4

Which of these is a logical signal-transduction pathway?

	a.	An intracellular receptor activates phospholipase C, which cleaves a membrane protein to form IP₃, which then activates the opening of an ER channel protein, which releases cyclic AMP into the cytoplasm, where it binds to an intracellular enzyme that carries out a response.
	b.	A G-protein-linked receptor activates G protein, which activates phospholipase C, which cleaves a membrane lipid to form IP₃, which binds to a calcium channel on the ER, which opens to release calcium ions into the cytoplasm, which bind to an intracellular enzyme that carries out a response.
	c.	An ion-channel receptor opens, allowing a steroid hormone to enter the cell; the steroid hormone then activates protein kinases that convert GTP to GDP, which binds to an intracellular enzyme that carries out a response.
	d.	A tyrosine-kinase receptor activates adenylyl cyclase, which activates phospholipase C, which converts ATP into cyclic AMP, which binds to an intracellular enzyme that carries out a response.

QUESTION 9

If an animal cell suddenly lost the ability to produce GTP, what might happen to its signaling system?

		It would use ATP instead of GTP to activate and inactivate the G protein on the cytoplasmic side of the plasma membrane.
		It would not be able to activate and inactivate the G protein on the cytoplasmic side of the plasma membrane.
		It would employ a transduction pathway directly from an external messenger.
		It would be able to carry out reception and transduction but would not be able to respond to a signal.

QUESTION 10

A hormone signal is sent from the brain to other parts of the body via the bloodstream. Why do only certain cells respond to this signal?

		Hormones do not last long enough in the bloodstream to stimulate a cellular response
		Only cells that have a specific transcription factor gene will be able to respond to the signal
		Only cells in the immediate vicinity of the cell sending the signal will respond
		Only cells that have a receptor for the specific signal will be able to respond to it
