 Organisms can function normally only if:  All the cells of their different organs communicating effectively with their surroundings.  Once a cell picks up a hormonal or sensory signal, it must transmit this information from the surface to the interior parts of the cell— Example, to the nucleus.  This occurs via signal transduction pathways that are: very specific, both in their activation and in their downstream actions.  Thus, the various organs in the body respond in an appropriate manner and only to relevant signals.  Organisms can function normally only if:  All the cells of their different organs communicating effectively with their surroundings.  Once a cell picks up a hormonal or sensory signal, it must transmit this information from the surface to the interior parts of the cell— Example, to the nucleus.  This occurs via signal transduction pathways that are: very specific, both in their activation and in their downstream actions.  Thus, the various organs in the body respond in an appropriate manner and only to relevant signals.

Pathway of Signal Transduction

Many enzymes are regulated by covalent attachment of phosphate, in ester linkage, to the side-chain hydroxyl group of a particular amino acid residue (serine, threonine, or tyrosine).

 A protein kinase transfers the terminal phosphate of ATP to a hydroxyl group on a protein.  A protein phosphatase catalyzes removal of the P i by hydrolysis.

Phosphorylation may directly alter activity of an enzyme, e.g., by promoting a conformational change. Alternatively, altered activity may result from binding another protein that specifically recognizes a phosphorylated domain.  E.g., proteins bind to domains that include phosphorylated Ser or Thr in the sequence RXXX[pS/pT]XP, where X can be different amino acids.  Binding to is a mechanism by which some proteins (e.g., transcription factors) may be retained in the cytosol, & prevented from entering the nucleus.

Protein kinases and phosphatases are themselves regulated by complex signal cascades. For example:  Some protein kinases are activated by Ca ++ - calmodulin.  Protein Kinase A is activated by cyclic-AMP (cAMP).

Adenylate Cyclase (Adenylyl Cyclase) catalyzes: ATP  cAMP + PP i Binding of certain hormones (e.g., epinephrine) to the outer surface of a cell activates Adenylate Cyclase to form cAMP within the cell. Cyclic AMP is thus considered to be a second messenger.

Phosphodiesterase enzymes catalyze: cAMP + H 2 O  AMP The phosphodiesterase that cleaves cAMP is activated by phosphorylation catalyzed by Protein Kinase A. Thus cAMP stimulates its own degradation, leading to rapid turnoff of a cAMP signal.

Protein Kinase A (cAMP-Dependent Protein Kinase) transfers P i from ATP to OH of a Ser or Thr in a particular 5-amino acid sequence. Protein Kinase A in the resting state is a complex of: 2 catalytic subunits (C) 2 regulatory subunits (R). R 2 C 2

Each regulatory subunit (R) of Protein Kinase A contains a pseudosubstrate sequence, like the substrate domain of a target protein but with Ala substituting for the Ser/Thr. The pseudosubstrate domain of (R), which lacks a hydroxyl that can be phosphorylated, binds to the active site of (C), blocking its activity.

R 2 C cAMP  R 2 cAMP C When each (R) binds 2 cAMP, a conformational change causes (R) to release (C). The catalytic subunits can then catalyze phosphorylation of Ser or Thr on target proteins. PKIs, Protein Kinase Inhibitors, modulate activity of the catalytic subunits (C).

G Protein Signal Cascade Most signal molecules targeted to a cell bind at the cell surface to receptors embedded in the plasma membrane. Only signal molecules able to cross the plasma membrane (e.g., steroid hormones) interact with intracellular receptors. A large family of cell surface receptors have a common structural motif, 7 transmembrane  -helices. Rhodopsin was the first of these to have its 7-helix structure confirmed by X-ray crystallography.

 Rhodopsin is unique. It senses light, via a bound chromophore, retinal.  Most 7-helix receptors have domains facing the extracellular side of the plasma membrane that recognize & bind signal molecules (ligands). E.g., the  -adrenergic receptor is activated by epinephrine & norepinephrine. Crystallization of this receptor was aided by genetically engineering insertion of the soluble enzyme lysozyme into a cytosolic loop between transmembrane  -helices.

The signal is usually passed from a 7-helix receptor to an intracellular G-protein.  Seven-helix receptors are thus called GPCR, or G-Protein-Coupled Receptors.  Approx. 800 different GPCRs are encoded in the human genome.

G-protein-Coupled Receptors may dimerize or form oligomeric complexes within the membrane. Ligand binding may promote oligomerization, which may in turn affect activity of the receptor. Various GPCR-interacting proteins (GIPs) modulate receptor function. Effects of GIPs may include:  altered ligand affinity  receptor dimerization or oligomerization  control of receptor localization, including transfer to or removal from the plasma membrane  promoting close association with other signal proteins

 G-proteins are heterotrimeric, with 3 subunits , , .  A G-protein that activates cyclic-AMP formation within a cell is called a stimulatory G-protein, designated G s with alpha subunit G s .  G s is activated, e.g., by receptors for the hormones epinephrine and glucagon. The  -adrenergic receptor is the GPCR for epinephrine.

 &  subunits have covalently attached lipid anchors that bind a G-protein to the plasma membrane cytosolic surface. Adenylate Cyclase (AC) is a transmembrane protein, with cytosolic domains forming the catalytic site. The  subunit of a G-protein (G  ) binds GTP, & can hydrolyze it to GDP + P i.

The sequence of events by which a hormone activates cAMP signaling: 1. Initially G  has bound GDP, and  &  subunits are complexed together. G , , the complex of  &  subunits, inhibits G .

2. Hormone binding, usually to an extracellular domain of a 7-helix receptor (GPCR), causes a conformational change in the receptor that is transmitted to a G-protein on the cytosolic side of the membrane. The nucleotide-binding site on G  becomes more accessible to the cytosol, where [GTP] > [GDP]. G  releases GDP & binds GTP (GDP-GTP exchange).

3. Substitution of GTP for GDP causes another conformational change in G . G  -GTP dissociates from the inhibitory  complex & can now bind to and activate Adenylate Cyclase.

4. Adenylate Cyclase, activated by the stimulatory G  -GTP, catalyzes synthesis of cAMP. 5. Protein Kinase A (cAMP Dependent Protein Kinase) catalyzes transfer of phosphate from ATP to serine or threonine residues of various cellular proteins, altering their activity.

Turn off of the signal: 1. G  hydrolyzes GTP to GDP + P i. (GTPase). The presence of GDP on G  causes it to rebind to the inhibitory  complex. Adenylate Cyclase is no longer activated. 2. Phosphodiesterases catalyze hydrolysis of cAMP  AMP. 3. Protein Phosphatase catalyzes removal by hydrolysis of phosphates that were attached to proteins via Protein Kinase A.

Signal amplification is an important feature of signal cascades:  One hormone molecule can lead to formation of many cAMP molecules.  Each catalytic subunit of Protein Kinase A catalyzes phosphorylation of many proteins during the life- time of the cAMP.

 Different isoforms of G  have different signal roles. E.g.: The stimulatory G s , when it binds GTP, activates Adenylate cyclase. An inhibitory G i , when it binds GTP, inhibits Adenylate cyclase. Different effectors & their receptors induce G i  to exchange GDP for GTP than those that activate G s .  The complex of G  that is released when G  binds GTP is itself an effector that binds to and activates or inhibits several other proteins. E.g., G  inhibits one of several isoforms of Adenylate Cyclase, contributing to rapid signal turnoff in cells that express that enzyme.

 Cholera toxin catalyzes covalent modification of G s . ADP-ribose is transferred from NAD + to an arginine residue at the GTPase active site of G s . ADP-ribosylation prevents GTP hydrolysis by G s  . The stimulatory G-protein is permanently activated.  Pertussis toxin (whooping cough disease) catalyzes ADP- ribosylation at a cysteine residue of the inhibitory G i , making it incapable of exchanging GDP for GTP. The inhibitory pathway is blocked.  ADP-ribosylation is a general mechanism by which activity of many proteins is regulated, in eukaryotes (including mammals) as well as in prokaryotes.
