In relation to Cushing’s Syndrome, a method that some scientists have used to treat the disease is to use small molecules that bind to, but do not activate, MC2R. This type of molecule is considered an antagonist. How can an antagonist bind to the same receptor as ACTH but not activate it ?
a. The antagonist binds covalently while ACTH binds non covalently
b. The antagonist is only partially complimentary to the binding pocket of MC2R
c. The antagonist binds to ACTH and blocks it from binding to the receptor properly
d. The antagonist is the exact same structure as ACTH but since it is synthetic it doesn’t work
Intracellular receptors bind to signaling molecules that are
A.
anionic.
B.
cationic.
C.
nonpolar.
D.
polypeptides.

- The action of steroid hormones is different from that of peptide hormones becausea. peptide hormones must enter the cell to begin action, whereas steroid hormones must begin action on the external surface of the cell membrane.b. steroid hormones must enter the cell to begin action, whereas peptide hormones must begin action on the external surface of the cell membrane.c. peptide hormones produce a hormone receptor complex that works directly on the DNA, whereas steroid hormones cause the release of a secondary messenger that triggers enzymes.d. None of these answers is correct.arrow_forwardFor a signal to be sent down an axon of a nerve cell, an action potential must be generated. This is done by.. Select one: a. G-protein coupled receptors bind ligand, a phosphorylation cascade occurs, this causes a change in charge of the membrane due to the addition of phosphates allowing Na+ channels to open. b. Ligand-gated K+ channels open, allowing K+ to rush out of the cell and depolarize that part of the membrane. This change in charge opens neighboring voltage-gated channels. c. Ligand-gated Na+ channels open, allowing Na+ to rush in. This then depolarizes that region of the membrane resulting in opening neighboring voltage-gated channels. d. Receptor tyrosine kinases have two Na+ molecules bind, this opens voltage-gated channels allowing the “signal” to pass down the axon.arrow_forwardcompare small molecule neurotransmitters to neuropeptides Select one: a. neuropeptides are synthesized as large peptide molecules that are cleaved to form smaller peptides; neurotransmitters are modified amino acids b. neuropeptides bind to metabotropic receptors; neurotransmitters bind to ionotropic or metabotropic receptors c. neuropeptides are slower to replenish in the axon terminal than neurotransmitters d. all of these are valid comparisons e. neuropeptides are released by cells that express the peptide gene; neurotransmitters are released by cells that express the synthetic enzymes required to convert amino acid precursorsarrow_forward
- A ligand binds to the extracellular portion of a receptor. Another ligand binds to an identical half of the same receptor.
