cyclase
Chemically modifies Gs so that GTP CANNOT be hydrolyzed to GDP
Odorant receptors
Stimulate adenylyl cyclase increase cAMP

Gq signaling
Ligand binds receptor
Gq activated
Gq activates PLC-beta
PLC-beta cleaves PIP2 IP3 & DAG
IP3 causes Ca+2 release from ER
Ca+2 binds calmodulin alters other pathways
DAG activates PKC (what else does PKC need in order to
be activated?)
PKC stimulates other pathways

Life-threatening fever, sustained mm contraction,
hypercatabolism
Increases Ca+2 in sarcoplasm after drug exposure

Ca2+ release
Ca2+ binds and activates calmodulin
Calmodulin binds and activates calcineurin
Calcineurin dephosphorylates NFAT
NFAT goes to nucleus and stimulates IL-2 gene
expression
Cyclosporin A inhibits calcineurin and is used
as an immunosuppresant (organ transplant) >
NFAT left in phosphorylated state

PI 3 kinase/AKT signalling
Activation of AKT (PKB) has four important
consequences;
1. GLUT4 > PM > glucose uptake.
2. AKT phosphorylates glycogen synthase
kinase-3 (GSK-3 deactivated) > increase in
glycogen synthesis
3. Alters TSC/mTOR pathway > increase
protein translation
4. Alters FOXO pathway > decreases glucose
synthesis
