Biosignaling in Cell
Communication
In human, different cell
types carry out different
functions.
The
cells
communicate
through
secretion
of
chemical messengers that
carry a signal to another
cell.
Signals change actions of
intracellular
proteins
(metabolic enzymes, gene
regulatory
proteins,
ion
channels, or
cytoskeletal
proteins) in target cells.

Example of Signal Molecule

Hormones: Adrenaline,
Cortisol,
Glucagon,
Insulin,
Testosterone
and Thyroid
Local Mediator: Epidermal
growth
factor
(EGF),
Platellet-derived
growth
factor
(PDGF),
Nerve
growth
factor
(NGF),
Histamine, Nitric oxide (NO)
Neurotransmitter:
Acetylcholine; GABA

General feature
of signal
molecules:
Transmit messages
between cells

Signal Transduction
Receptors contain
a binding site specific for a single
chemical messenger
another binding site involved in
transmitting message.

Binding site may interact with


another protein or with DNA:
either plasma membrane receptors
or intracellular binding proteins
(Fig.1).

When a chemical messenger


binds to a receptor:
Signal is converted into an
intracellular response.
This conversion is called signal
transduction.

Second
messengers are
non protein
generated inside cell
in response to
hormone binding that
continue
transmission of
message

Signal Termination

Signal
Termination
Within each pathway of signal
transduction, signal may be
turned off at specific steps:
1.receptor might be desensitized to
messenger by phosphorylation.
2.G proteins automatically terminate
messages as they hydrolyze GTP.
3.degradation of second messenger
(e.g., phosphodiesterase cleavage of
cAMP).
4.removing phosphate groups from
proteins by phosphatases.

Sites of signal termination.


Processes that terminate
signals are shown in blue.
