A drug binds to a receptor and causes an immediate change in the electrical signaling or excitability of that cell, without activating another signaling molecule. What type of receptor is this drug most likely binding to? G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) Ligand-gated ion channel Enzyme-coupled receptor Intracellular receptor Voltage-gated ion channel
An extracellular signaling molecule binds to cell surface receptor. This cell surface receptor changes shape and activates a trimeric G-protein. What kind of receptor is this? a) Ion-channel coupled receptor b) Receptor Tyrosine Kinase c) G-Protein coupled receptor d) All of the other answers are correct e) Enzyme-coupled receptor
Which of the following types of amino acids may never be found in the transmembrane sections of G-protein coupled receptors? Alanine Arginine Valine None of the above
Which of the following statements best defines the term ‘spare receptors’? ‘Spare receptors’ refers to receptors that are broken down by cells because they are surplus to requirements. ‘Spare receptors’ occur when the KD for agonist binding to the receptor is smaller than the EC50 determined for a particular physiological response. ‘Spare receptors’ refers to the pool of intracellular receptors that are able to translocate to the plasma membrane. ‘Spare receptors’ can be defined as the number of receptors not occupied by agonist when a maximal response has been achieved, compared to the total number of receptors in the cell.
Which of the following statements most accurately describes what happens when an antagonist binds to a receptor? The antagonist binds non-covalently to the receptor and promotes internalisation of the receptor. Antagonist binding alters the structure of the receptor making it unable to function normally. At sufficiently high concentrations the antagonist can prevent the receptor from binding to its natural (endogenous) ligand. The antagonist-receptor complex binds to a heterotrimeric G protein forming a stable and inactive ternary complex.
Maximal physiological response to an external stimuli typically occurs when ______ of the receptors are bound by its ligand. A. None of the answers are true. B. All of the answers are true. C. Only a fraction D. 100% E. Most F. at least 50% G. Ligand-bound receptors do not result in any detectable physiological responses.
Describe three different responses of a cell-surfacereceptor on binding a signaling molecule and undergoing aconformational change.
Which of the following best describes the type of receptor a beta-antagonist drugs acts on a.Ligand-regulated transmembrane enzymes b.Ion channel c.G protein-coupled receptor d.Intracellular lipid-soluble signaling
For a signal to be sent down an axon of a nerve cell, an action potential must be generated. This is done by.. Select one: a. G-protein coupled receptors bind ligand, a phosphorylation cascade occurs, this causes a change in charge of the membrane due to the addition of phosphates allowing Na+ channels to open. b. Ligand-gated K+ channels open, allowing K+ to rush out of the cell and depolarize that part of the membrane. This change in charge opens neighboring voltage-gated channels. c. Ligand-gated Na+ channels open, allowing Na+ to rush in. This then depolarizes that region of the membrane resulting in opening neighboring voltage-gated channels. d. Receptor tyrosine kinases have two Na+ molecules bind, this opens voltage-gated channels allowing the “signal” to pass down the axon.
Except for?, all of the following signals may trigger receptor conformational changes without reaching the plasma membrane. o a. Receptors for steroid hormones. Tyrosine kinase receptors are a kind of receptor that binds to tyrosine phosphatase. Voltage-gated ion channels (OC). G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).
