Content preview

, classic synaptic neurotransmission - CORRECT ANSWERS-Presynaptic to synaptic to
post synaptic

retrograde neurotransmission - CORRECT ANSWERS-Neurotransmitter moves to
opposite direction from post synaptic to presynaptic
Used to limit a response

volume transmission - CORRECT ANSWERS-Neurotransmitter spills over to other
synapses by diffusion

signal transduction cascade - CORRECT ANSWERS-Triggered by chemical
neurotransmitter from presynaptic neuron
-Ligand binds to receptor which is activated to bind to G-protien and series of
messengers

ultimate goal of signal transduction cascade - CORRECT ANSWERS-ultimate goal is to
turn off or on gene (GENE EXPRESSION) and production of phosphoprotien

ultimate targets of signal transmission - CORRECT ANSWERS-to turn on or turn off
genes (Gene Expression) and to produce phosphoprotiens

second messenger - CORRECT ANSWERS-change occurs to bind to G-protien -which
changes to bind to enzyme -which changes and forms second messenger

2nd messenger found? - CORRECT ANSWERS-Intracellular

G-linked protein - CORRECT ANSWERS-Activated by binding to receptor after receptor
has been conformational changed by neurotransmitter.

G-linked protein's role? - CORRECT ANSWERS-Once bound to receptor G-linked
protien changes shape and binds to enzyme which then release second messenger to
next enzyme in signal transduction cascade.

phosphoproteins - CORRECT ANSWERS-Involved in transduction
Phosphoprotiens are target along STC - these change how Neurotransmitter is released

phosphoproteins formed - CORRECT ANSWERS-Helps to send message to gene
One of the end targets along with the gene
