Resource summary

Signalling and Receptor
  1. RECEPTORS
    1. What are they?
      1. Receptor are proteins found on the plasma membrane or inside cells
      2. How do they work?
        1. Positive Physiological Response = Agonist Ligand Negative Physiological Response = Antagonist Ligand
        2. Types
          1. Enzyme- coupled Receptors
            1. Ligand attaches to receptor
              1. Two receptors join together (dimerization)
                1. Enzymatic reaction (induced or direct)
                  1. Kinases
                    1. Phoshorylates -OH on serine, threonine and tyrsoine in proteins
                    2. Phoshphatases
                      1. GTPase
                        1. GEF
                          1. GAP
                          2. RTK
                            1. MAP Kinase
                          3. G-Protein coupled
                            1. Channel
                            2. Inactivation of Receptors
                              1. Engulfed, ligand leaves receptor, ligand broken down, receptor recycled
                                1. Direct inactivation e.g using phosphotases
                                  1. Negative Feedback
                                2. MODES OF CELL SIGNALLING
                                  1. Paracrine
                                    1. A cell excretes ligand which effects neiighbouring cells as it spreads out by diffusion
                                    2. Endocrine
                                      1. Ligand excerted into blood stream
                                      2. Synaptic
                                        1. Neurotransmitters between neurone
                                        2. Contact Dependant
