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.

Question

1. Provide an example for each of the following types of cell to cell signaling: juxtacrine, paracrine, and
endocrine. (for example, fat cells communicating with the brain using the hormone leptin is endocrine signaling)
juxtacrine
paracrine

1a) Create a diagram which illustrates the typical signaling mechanism of action G protein-coupled receptors and possible routes of communication (autocrine etc.). Should show the specific molecules involved, the mechanisms of signal transduction and indicate the different pathways that are activated. It should include a specific example of a receptor, ligand and signalling pathway for each general class. Include as wide a variety of ligands and modes of action as you can for a novel pathway.
. which of the following statements about heterotrimetric G proteins and their receptors is incorrect? A: when GTP binds to the alpha subunit of the G protein, the beta-gamma subunit dissociates from the alpha subunit B: G-protein coupled receptors contain nine transmembrane alpha helices C: binding of arrestin causes removal of the receptor from the membrane D: G protein- coupled receptors may be desensitized by serine phosphorylation I had chosen option A and got it wrong. What is the Correct answer and explain how it is. Also, where did i go wrong in choosing option A?
1. Based on the following description, draw the cell signaling pathway described (you only need to draw the pathway in one cell, but show the type of signaling described – you may need 2 diagrams). Compound X is released from cells in the pancreas and activates cells in the liver. What general type of cell signaling is this? When compound X binds its receptor on a liver cell, some of the amino acids (Y – one letter amino acid code) on the cytoplasmic side of the receptor are phosphorylated. Label what type of receptor this is. This leads to the receptor activating a cytoplasmic protein F which then activates a kinase K which then activates protein Z (diagram what is happening here – how is protein Z activated). Protein Z activation results in several genes being expressed. Label all your parts (don’t forget to label the ligand). Circle the signal transduction pathway and put a box around the cell response.

27) One of the main differences between receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling and G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling is that: GPCR signaling involves enzyme cascades, while RTK signaling does not. Only RTK signaling involves kinase activity. Only GPCR signaling involves a GTPase. GPCR signaling is more likely to have a short-term, reversible effect.
