RECEPTORS
TYPES, STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION
• A (globular) protein that receives chemical signal
• Plasma membrane or Nucleus
• Bound by a ligand
• Specific cellular-biochemical pathway
• Cellular or tissue response
INTRODUCTION
THE ROLE OF THE RECEPTOR
•Binding site
•Intermolecular bonds
•Induced fit of the receptor protein
•Change in receptor shape
•Domino effect
•Chemical signal being
•Chemical messenger departs unchanged

THE BINDING
• Binding site is nearly complementary to the messenger
• Binding alters the shape of the receptor (induced fit)
• Altered receptor shape leads to further effects - signal transduction
BINDING ENERGY
Intermolecular bonds are not optimum length for maximum binding strength
After –Intermolecular bond lengths optimised

INDUCED FIT
• Binding interactions must be strong enough to hold the messenger
sufficiently long for signal transduction to take place
• Interactions must be weak enough to allow the messenger to depart
• Implies a fine balance
• Designing molecules with stronger binding interactions results in drugs
that block the binding site - antagonists
MAIN TYPES OF RECEPTORS
• Ion channel receptors
• G-protein-coupled receptors
• Kinase-linked receptors
• Intracellular receptors
ION CHANNEL RECEPTORS
• Receptor protein is part of an ion channel protein complex
• Receptor binds a messenger leading to an induced fit
• Ion channel is opened or closed
• Ion channels are specific for specific ions (Na+, Ca2+, Cl-, K+)
• Ions flow across cell membrane down concentration gradient
• Polarises or depolarises nerve membranes
• Activates or deactivates enzyme catalysed reactions within cell

• Chemical messenger binds to receptor binding site
• Induced fit results in further conformational changes
• TM2 segments rotate to open central pore

GATING
• Fast response measured in milli-seconds
• Ideal for transmission between nerves
• Binding of messenger leads directly to ion flows across cell membrane
• Ion flow = secondary effect (signal transduction)
• Ion concentration within cell alters
• Leads to variation in cell chemistry

LIGAND BINDING SITE
A. Monoamines: pocket in TM helices
B. Peptide hormones: top of TM helices + extracellular loops + N-terminal chain
C. Hormones: extracellular loops + N-terminal chain
D. Glutamate: N-terminal chain
TYROSINE KINASE - LINKED RECEPTORS
• Bifunctional receptor / enzyme
• Activated by hormones
• Overexpression (Cancer)
TYROSINE KINASE - LINKED RECEPTORS
• Protein serves dual role - receptor plus enzyme
• Receptor binds messenger leading to an induced fit
• Protein changes shape and opens active site
• Reaction catalyzed within cell
• Overexpression related to several cancers

EPIDERMAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR (EGFR)
EPIDERMAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR (EGFR)
• Active site on one half of dimer catalyzes phosphorylation of Tyr residues
on other half
• Dimerization of receptor is crucial
• Phosphorylated regions act as binding sites for further enzymes
• Results in activation of signaling proteins and enzymes
• Message carried into cell
INSULIN RECEPTOR (TETRAMERIC COMPLEX)
GROWTH HORMONE RECEPTOR
INTRACELLULAR RECEPTORS
• Chemical messengers must cross cell membrane
• Chemical messengers must be hydrophobic
• Example-steroids and
• Steroid receptors
