Question
Answer
What is cyclic AMP?   Intracellular 2nd messenger - mediates effects of 1st (extracellular) messenger; formed from ATP by membrane enzyme (adenylate cyclase).  
🗑
Except for thyroid hormone, all amino-acid based hormones exert their signaling effects through __.   intracellular 2nd messengers  
🗑
Name the 3 plasma membrane components that interact in cyclic AMP (cAMP).   Hormone receptor, G protein (signal transducer) & adenylate cyclase (effector enzyme)  
🗑
What is the first messenger in cyclic AMP signaling?   The hormones binding to its receptor  
🗑
What does the binding of a hormone cause in cAMP signaling?   The receptor to change shape & bind to G protein  
🗑
G protein is activated as __ is displaced by high energy compound __.   GDP (guanosine diphosphate), GTP (guanosine triphosphate)  
🗑
G protein behaves like a light switch. It is off when __ is bound to it & on when __ binds.   GDP, GTP  
🗑
Activated G protein binds to what?   the effector enzyme adenylate cyclase  
🗑
G proteins can __ or __ adenlyate cyclase.   stimulate or inhibit  
🗑
If activated, adenylate cyclase generates __.   cAMP (2nd messenger) from ATP  
🗑
cAMP triggers activation of __.   Protein Kinase A  
🗑
What are protein kinases?   Enzymes that phosphorylate (add phosphate group) various proteins  
🗑
Active protein kinase A triggers what?   Responses of target cell - opens ion channels, activates, enzymes, etc.  
🗑
Each activated adenylate cyclase generates __.   Large #s of cAMP molecules & can catalyze 100s of reactions.  
🗑
Theoretically, one hormone molecule binding can generate __.   millions of final product molecules.  
🗑
cAMP is rapidly degraded by __.   phosphodiesterase - intracellular enzyme  
🗑
Since phosphodiesterase rapidly destroys cAMP, continued cellular activity is prompted by __.   continued production of hormones.  
🗑
Some G proteins inhibit adenylate cyclase & __.   reduce cAMP concentration.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
