Biology And Biomedical Sciences BIOL 2960 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Receptor Tyrosine Kinase, Protein Kinase A, Glycogen Phosphorylase
Document Summary
Beta-adrenergic receptor pathway in order: adrenaline (epinephrine, beta-adrenergic receptor, g(alpha s)-gtp, adenyl cyclase, camp, protein kinase a, phosphorylase kinase, glycogen phosphorylase, glucose 1-p. Growth factor pathway: growth factor, receptor tyrosine kinase (rtk, adaptor protein, sos (cycle to convert gdp to ras-gtp), ras-gtp(active, raf (serine/threonine kinase, mek (dual-specificity kinase, map kinase (serine/threonine kinase, nuclear transcription factors, cell division. Inactive ras with gdp a: gdp-gtp exchange, active ras gtp (step 5) d, becomes inactive ras with gdp. Intrinsic gtpase activity of g-proteins (ras and trimeric g proteins) Phosphorylation of 7tm receptors and subsequent arrestin binding. camp (cgmp also) -> degraded by phosphodiesterase (pde) Viagra is an inhibitor of a specific cgmp degrading enzyme, cgmp specific pde type 5. Free energy, g, is the usable energy available in a system. The change in free energy, g, of a chemical reaction determines whether the reaction will go forward. It is equal to the difference in the free energies of the reactant and the products.
