Cellular mechanisms

Cellular & Molecular drug targets for 3rd year pharmacology course

QuestionAnswer
List mechanism titles cAMP cGMP PI3K/Akt & mTOR/victor MAPK JAK/STAT & TGFR/Smad NF-kB Hedgehog, Wnt & Notch GPCRs Protein-tyrosine kinases serine/threonine kinases(Akt) Rhodopsin Ryanodine receptors (RYR) Arrestin & GRKs
Enzyme for ATP to cAMP Adenylate cyclase
Enzyme for cAMP to ATP cAMP phosphodiesterase
cAMP does what? kinase activation, including PKA activation for heterologous receptor desensitization of non-ligand bound Rs
cGMP does what? cGMP dependent protein kinases and direct ion channel activation
Enzyme for GTP to cGMP Guanylyl cyclase
Enzyme for PIP2 to IP3 + DAG Phospholipase C (PLC)
DAG activates what? PKC (receptor desensitizer)
PKA does what? Heterologous desensitization of non-ligand bound receptors
PKC does what? Heterologous desensitization of non-ligand bound receptors
IP3 does what? #Calcium mobolisation via ligand on ER
Enzyme for PIP2 to PIP3? PI3K
PI3K does what? PIP2 to PIP3
PIP3 does what? Binds both Akt & PDK-1 to membrane, makes Akt & PDK-1 more likely to interact. PDK-1 & mTOR/victor both phosphorylate Akt. Activated Akt then can cause cell death via mechanisms.
Akt does what? PIP3 binds both Akt & PDK-1 to membrane, makes Akt & PDK-1 more likely to interact. PDK-1 & mTOR/victor both phosphorylate Akt. Activated Akt then can cause cell death via mechanisms.
PDK-1 does what? PIP3 binds both Akt & PDK-1 to membrane, makes Akt & PDK-1 more likely to interact. PDK-1 & mTOR/victor both phosphorylate Akt. Activated Akt then can cause cell death via mechanisms.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
