Receptor Mechanisms

2. G-protein-Coupled
Receptors(GPCR)

Fastest 1. Ligand-gated ion


channels
Binding of agonist in GPCR

Activaiton of GPCR

Activated by binding of
a ligand(Agonist) to G-protein activation
receptor on the
channel molecule

G-GDP to G-GTP

Activiation or Inhibition of enzyme


Binding causes with subsequent modification of
second messengers ex: cAMP,IP3
conformational change
in the receptor which
leads to ion channel Biological effect or opening or
opening closing of ion channel
3. Kinase-linked Receptors, 3. Kinase-linked Receptors,
Growth Factor Receptors
Cytokine Receptors
4. Intracellular Receptors (Nuclear
Slowest Receptors)
Growth Factor binds to
receptor
Cytokine binds to receptor
Dimerization and hsp90 protien binds to
autophosphorylation of
receptor
glucocorticoid receptor
Dimerization of receptor
Grb2 and Sos adapter
proteins binds to receptor

hsp90 causes deactivation


Binding of Jak
Activation of Ras GDP/GTP
exchange

Activation of Raf
Activation(phosphorylation)
of receptor and Jak binding of hormone steroid causes
dissociation(removal) of hsp90
Activation of Mek
Binding of Stat

Activation of MAP Kinase


Glucocorticoid receptor becomes
active
Dimerization of Stat
Activates various
transcription factors

Gene transcription Gene transcription
