When protein membrane receptors are activated, what usually happens? The receptors open and close in response to protein signals. A change occurs on only one membrane surface: exterior or interior. The receptor preferentially binds with lipid or glycolipid signal molecules. O A change occurs in intracellular ion concentration. The receptor changes conformation after binding with the ligand.

Cell Signaling

It allows cells to perform various cellular activities, coordinate, and interact with other cells. All cells of an organism receive signals from their environments and respond accordingly. Even the unicellular eukaryotes receive signals secreted by other cells and respond. In the case of yeast, mating takes place by signaling between the yeast cells. Communication by cell signaling in a multicellular organism has become a vast and important part of various fields of biology.
