What can Enzymes also be associated with in the plasma membrane?
receptors
Enzymes work with receptors in cells to trigger…
the desired cellular response/outcome.
Receptor
is a protein that binds to specific ions/ligands`
Primary ligand and Agonist activate the receptor, which has a…
response
Antagonist blocks receptor activity, which has..
no response
Tyrosine Kinase Receptor
A ligand/molecule binds to the surface receptor, that binding (ligand & receptor), activates the enzyme tyrosine kinase.
Tyrosine Kinase
is an enzyme that plucks off an extra phosphate from ATP.
Phosphorylating a Protein
when enzyme adds that phosphate to a different protein of interest.
Phosphorylated Protein will then…
trigger a series of events in the cell.
Kinases
are a class of enzymes that pluck off an extra phosphate from ATP.
When Kinase added the extra phosphate to another protein inside of the cell, which…
triggers a cascade of events inside of the cell.
What is Phosphate to a protein called?
Phosphorylation
What is the end product of a Kinase?
Phosphorylated Protein + ATP
