Ligand-gated ion channels, modulates cell excitability by allowing the flow of calcium and sodium ions into the cell. Located at the CNS in neurons and glia. Excess has resulted in schizophrenia, epilepsy, and mania Ligand-gated ion channels, strengthens synapses and involved in strong memory formation. Excess is associated with memory and learning impairments, psychosis, and excitotoxic brain injury Ligand-gated ion channels Functions as post synaptic inhibition by CI-influx Lack of...

ligand Correct Answer-a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger one (i.e., protein). For example, a hormone is the ligand for its specific protein receptor [a molecule bound reversibly by a protein. binding site Correct Answer-the location (crevice or pocket) on a receptor protein to which a ligand binds induced fit Correct Answer-The change in shape of the active site of an enzyme so that it binds more snugly to the substrate, induced by entry of the substrate. Renders the subs...

Which of the following signaling types occurs during periods of development specifically for the secretion of growth factors? paracrine signaling Explain why a steroid hormone would require a carrier protein to transport it through the bloodstream. Steroid hormones are hydrophobic so they would need a carrier protein to carry it through the blood because carriers are hydrophilic Explain what a ligand is and give an example of one. A ligand is a molecule that has specificity for a given rece...
