- Vasopressin or antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is a peptide hormone synthesized in the a) hypothalamus. This hormone, when present, induces expression of water transport proteins (aquaporins) in the late distal tubule and collecting duct of the kidney to increase water reabsorption. Binding to the receptor triggers an intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (CAMP) pathway. Arrange the following steps of hormone signalling in the proper order by putting 1, 2, 3, etc in the space provided, CAMP activates CAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). Recruitment of inactive G-protein made of heterotrimeric subunits which has GDP bound to a-subunit. Conformation change in GPCR. Adenylyl cyclase converts ATP into CAMP. PKA phosphorylates proteins in the cell. A cellular response is seen in the cell. a-subunit with GTP bound activates adenylyl cyclase. Activation of G-protein, thus GDP released an GTP binds to a-subunit. a-subunit of G-protein dissociates from By-dimer. Hormone binding to its…arrow_forwardGive one mechanism by which a GPCR signal is stopped following stimulation.

- Which statement best describes the interaction that occurs as a result of the binding of a ligand to a ligand-gated ion channel receptor? A B с D ligand extracellular environment gate closed inactive ligand-gated ion channel receptor ions The process permanently opens or closes the ion channel. cytoplasm The process alters the membrane potential by changing the intracellular ionic concentration. The process causes G proteins to bind with GTP and become activated. The process removes three sodium ions from the cell and brings in two potassium ions.arrow_forwardDescribe how membrane-bound and intracellular receptor molecules mediate responses to intercellular chemical signals.arrow_forwardExplain Signaling by Receptors That Are Ligand-Gated Ion Channels?arrow_forward

Where these pumps are present, the same GABA receptor is actually excitatory. Again, in the context of ECl describe how the same receptor would be excitatory in cells which actively pump Cl- into the ICF.arrow_forwardWhen comparing two or more ligands, a larger numerical value for KD corresponds to a higher binding affinity. True False In radioligand binding assays, a large excess of a noncompetitive antagonist is used to determine the specific binding of the radiolabeled ligand. True False Exocrine glands have ducts that provide a passageway for secretions to move to the surface of the epithelium. True False An inverse agonist binds to a receptor with an affinity that is inversely proportional to its potency. True False Can I get the answer? I don't need explanationarrow_forward
