Signal transductions
Signal transductions
Divide into two categories:
1- Extracellular signaling
Extracellular signaling molecules are synthesized and
released by signaling cells and produce a specific
response only in target cells that have receptors for
the signaling molecules. As hydrophobic molecules
such as steroids, retinoids, and thyroxine,
spontaneously diffuse through the plasma membrane
and bind to intracellular receptors
Overview of seven major classes of cell-surface
receptors. In many signaling pathways, ligand binding to
a receptor leads to activation of transcription factors in
the cytosol, permitting them to translocate into the
nucleus and stimulate (or occasionally repress)
transcription of their target genes. Alternatively,
receptor stimulation may lead to activation of cytosolic
protein kinases that then translocate into the nucleus and
regulate the activity of nuclear transcription factors.
Some activated receptors, particularly certain G proteinC
coupled receptors, also can induce changes in the
activity of preexisting proteins (Figure 13-1)

(Figure 13-1)
Classification of Extracellular signaling
intracellular signaling molecules termed second messengers that
cascade the signal pathway into nucleus. These molecules
include
?cyclic AMP (cAMP),
?cyclic GMP (cGMP)
?1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG)
?inositol
?1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), whose structures are shown in Figure
13-7.
?Other important second messengers are Ca+2 and various
inositol phospholipids, also called phosphoinositides, which are
embedded in cellular membranes.
?Finally GTPase: the large group of intracellular superfamilly,
act as in figure (M.A.1)
2- Intracellular signaling
figure (M.A.1) GTPase-Activating Proteins, or GAPs,
or GTPase-Accelerating Proteins are a family of
regulatory proteins whose members can bind to
activated G proteins and stimulate their GTPase
activity, with the result of terminating the signaling
event.
G proteins were discovered when Alfred and Martin investigated
stimulation of cells by adrenaline. They found that, when
adrenaline binds to a receptor, the receptor does not stimulate
enzymes directly. Instead, the receptor stimulates a G protein,
which stimulates an enzyme. An example is adenylate cyclase,
which produces the second messenger cAMP. For this discovery,
they won the 1994 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.

FIGURE 13-10 Schematic diagram of the general structure of
G proteinCcoupled receptors. All receptors of this type have the
same orientation in the membrane and contain seven
transmembrane -helical regions (H1CH7), four extracellular
segments (E1CE4), and four cytosolic segments (C1CC4). The
carboxyl-terminal segment (C4), the C3 loop, and, in some
receptors, also the C2 loop are involved in interactions with a
coupled trimeric G protein.
G proteins are important signal transducing molecules
in cells. In fact, diseases such as diabetes, blindness,
allergies, depression, cardiovascular defects, and
certain forms of cancer, among other pathologies, are
thought to arise due to derangement of G protein
signaling.
The human genome encodes roughly 950 G protein-
coupled receptors, which detect photons (light),
hormones, growth factors, drugs, and other
endogenous ligands. Approximately 150 of the
GPCRs found in the human genome have unknown
functions.
G-protein function
G-protein function
G protein can refer to two distinct families of
proteins. Heterotrimeric G proteins, sometimes
referred to as the "large" G proteins that are
activated by G protein-coupled receptors and made
up of alpha (), beta (), and gamma () subunits.
There are also "small" G proteins (20-25kDa) that
belong to the Ras superfamily of small GTPases.
These proteins are homologous to the alpha ()
subunit found in heterotrimers, and are in fact
monomeric. However, they also bind GTP and GDP
and are involved in signal transduction.
Types of G protein signaling

subunits. The  subunit is responsible for GTP and GDP binding and
for GTP hydrolysis, whereas the and  subunits are associated in a

CBP/P300 (5) to stimulate
various target genes controlled
by the CRE regulatory element.
