  2. Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscarinic_acetylcholine...

    The muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M 1, also known as the cholinergic receptor, muscarinic 1, is a muscarinic receptor that in humans is encoded by the CHRM1 gene. [5] It is localized to 11q13. [5] This receptor is found mediating slow EPSP at the ganglion in the postganglionic nerve, [6] is common in exocrine glands and in the CNS. [7] [8]

  3. Cell signaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_signaling

    The MAPK protein is an enzyme, a protein kinase that can attach phosphate to target proteins such as the transcription factor MYC and, thus, alter gene transcription and, ultimately, cell cycle progression. Many cellular proteins are activated downstream of the growth factor receptors (such as EGFR) that initiate this signal transduction pathway.

    The inner and outer glucose-binding sites are, it seems, located in transmembrane segments 9, 10, 11; [8] also, the DLS motif located in the seventh transmembrane segment could be involved in the selection and affinity of transported substrate.

  6. Alpha-1 adrenergic receptor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha-1_adrenergic_receptor

    Blood vessels with α 1-adrenergic receptors are present in the skin, the sphincters [4] of gastrointestinal system, kidney (renal artery) [5] and brain. [6] During the fight-or-flight response vasoconstriction results in decreased blood flow to these organs. This accounts for the pale appearance of the skin of an individual when frightened.

  8. Intrinsic activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrinsic_activity

    Intrinsic activity (IA) and efficacy (E max) refer to the relative ability of a drug-receptor complex to produce a maximum functional response. This must be distinguished from the affinity, which is a measure of the ability of the drug to bind to its molecular target, and the EC 50, which is a measure of the potency of the drug and which is proportional to both efficacy and affinity.

  9. Phosphofructokinase 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphofructokinase_1

    Phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK-1) is one of the most important regulatory enzymes (EC 2.7.1.11) of glycolysis. It is an allosteric enzyme made of 4 subunits and controlled by many activators and inhibitors. PFK-1 catalyzes the important "committed" step of glycolysis, the conversion of fructose 6-phosphate and ATP to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate and ...
