CLASSIFICATION
4
INTERNAL RECEPTOR :
Intracellular Receptors :
Hydrophobic signaling molecules typically diffuse
across the plasma membrane
interact with intracellular receptors in the cytoplasm.
5
CELL SURFACE RECEPTOR
ii. Cell-surface /transmembrane receptors/cell-specific
proteins
3 main components:
7
ION CHANNEL-LINKED RECEPTORS
Receptors bind with ligand. (Ex:Nicotinic Receptor)
Open a channel through the membrane that allows
specific ions to pass through.
Conformational change in the protein's structure that
allows ions such as Na,Ca, Mg, and H2 to pass through.

G-PROTEIN LINKED RECEPTORS
10
ENZYME-LINKED RECEPTORS

ENZYME-LINKED RECEPTORS

FORCES AFFECTING THE BINDING
1. Covalent bond :
very strong
"irreversible" under biological conditions.
extremely stable.
3. Hydrophobic interactions :
15
AGONIST AND ANTAGONIST
Agonist :
Agonists are chemical that binds to a receptor of a cell and
triggers a response by that cell.
Antagonist :
Antagonists are drugs that decrease the actions of another
drug or endogenous ligand.
16
MALFUNCTIONING OF RECEPTORS
1. Autoimmune :
17
MALFUNCTIONING OF RECEPTORS
2. Loss-of-function mutations :
Hypothyroidism, hypogonadism, short stature, diabetes
insipidus.
18
MALFUNCTIONING OF RECEPTORS
3. Gain-of-function mutations :
Activation in the absence of a ligand.
Increased sensitivity to the receptor’s usual agonist.
