Have you ever wondered how your cells talk to each other and respond to different signals? This animated video dives deep into the fascinating world of cAMP signaling, a key pathway involving G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and the versatile second messenger, cyclic AMP (cAMP).
Imagine tiny messengers inside your cells:
Extracellular signals: Hormones, neurotransmitters, even light!
GPCRs: Receptors on the cell surface, receiving the message.
G proteins: Inside the cell, delivering the message further.
cAMP: The versatile second messenger, amplifying the signal.
PKA: A powerful enzyme, activating other proteins.
CREB: A transcription factor, turning on specific genes.
Join us as we explore:
How GPCRs activate G proteins, triggering cAMP production.
How PKA, activated by cAMP, phosphorylates other proteins.
How CREB, activated by PKA, turns on genes for various functions.
The impact of cAMP signaling on growth, metabolism, and more!
This video is perfect for:
Students of biology and cell signaling.
Anyone curious about how cells communicate and function.
Those interested in the potential of targeting this pathway for health.
