Summary Introduction
To label: The components depicting the steps in signal transduction pathway that uses cyclic adenine mono phosphate (cAMP) as a secondary messenger.
Introduction:
A signal transduction pathway is a process involving transmission of signal along a cell by a series of events such as phosphorylation with the aim of producing a cellular response. A signaling molecule or a ligand binds to a specific receptor, so that the receptor undergoes a conformational change in its structure. This leads to stepwise enzymatic reactions, which are termed as signal transduction.

Hint, it could also be by removing the downstream second messenger.arrow_forwardWhat type of signal transduction is involved in signaling from hormones such as estrogen and testosterone? Explain the signal transduction pathway that occurs. 1. Is there a short term description for signal transduction, instead wrting multiple words to descripte the type of signal transduction? Can I just identify it as active signal transduction and inactive signal transduction. Based on my understanding, active singal transduction is for the fast react transdcution, while inactive signal transduction meanly refers the hormonal affacts on the system. 2. For Ion channels, specific enzymes are both involed activated and inactivated signal transduction?arrow_forwardYou are studying a drug that affects a cAMP signalling pathway that is normally initiated when a signalling molecule binds to a G-protein coupled receptor. You determine that the drug prevents the hydrolysis of GTP bound to G-proteins in this pathway. Describe the impact, if any, that this drug would have on the G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR), assuming that the pathway has been activated by the presence of the signalling molecule (first messenger). Include an explanation for your response.arrow_forward
