Channel-Linked Receptor 1 Ionotropic Receptor Ligand-Gated-Ion Channel Different from [Voltage-Gated ]Ion Channel That is activated by a change in action potential Not by occupancy of a ligand Involved in fast synaptic neurotransmittion occurring over milliseconds It is activated directly when a ligand comes to bind to receptors that are incorporated as part of its structure Examples; Nicotinic Ach receptor activated by Ach

Agonist occupancy dissociates [  ] subunit, so GTP replaces GDP & go to activate effector 2.

16. Complexity of a response is governed by many ligands, receptors & effectors

17. Enzyme-Linked Receptors 3 Involved in slow action of; hormones (insulin), growth factors, cytokines, ….. Their cytosolic domain either: 1. Associate directly with an enzyme like guanyl cyclase [GC] as in atrial natriuretic peptide [ANP] receptor. 2. Possess intrisic kinase activity (as tyrosine or serine/threonine kinase) that can phosphorylate itself (autophosphorylation) & / or other proteins that dock or bind to it. Example; insulin receptor They control many cellular functions as motility, growth, different- iation, division & morphogenesis. This usually require many intracellular signaling steps that take time [min. to hrs.] to process.

18. Enzyme-Linked Receptors 3 1.Guanyle cyclase-Linked Receptors They have a single transmembrane spanning element. These have integral intrinic guanylate cyclase activity. Their 2 nd messenger is cyclic guanyl mono-phosph. [cGMP] → activates PKG → to phosphorylate other down stream protein signaling molecules. ↑ cGMP Example [ANP] Receptor

19. Phosphorylate other proteins that it docks Activated Receptor autophosphorylates Ligands dimerize receptors Tyrosine Kinase-Linked Receptors Enzyme-Linked Receptors 3 Phosphorylated docked proteins RESPONSE Example Insulin Receptor

20. Non activated Insulin Receptor Activated Insulin Receptor Insulin INSULIN RECEPTOR Tyrosine Kinase-Linked Receptors Enzyme-Linked Receptors 3

21. Nuclear Receptors 4 Are intra-cellularly located whether in cytosol or the nucleus. Their natural ligands are usually : Extracellular lipophylic hormones; steroids, thyroids, …etc Extracellular lipids; linolinic a., retinoic a. Phosphorylated protein end product of 2 nd messenger signaling Protein Transcription Translation  Involved in regulation of PROTEIN SYNTHESIS → most slowest in action.  They possess an area that recognizes specific DNA sequence in the nucleus which can bind it. This sequence is called a Responsive Element [RE]  This means that the activated receptors are acting as TRANSCRIPTION FACTORS [TF] → expressing or repressing target genes.

22. Nuclear Receptors 4 The activated GC R complex  Up-regulates expression of anti- inflammatory proteins  Represses expression of pro-inflammatory proteins by preventing the translocation of their transcription factors from the cytosol into the nucleus). GLUCOCORTICOID [GC] RECEPTOR proteins
