 Ion channels

INTRODUCTION:

 Cells must be ready to respond to essential signals in their environment. These


are often chemicals in the extracellular fluid ( E C F ) from:

distant locations -  signaling by hormones;


nearby cells  cytokines;
or
even secreted by themselves .

 Long-range allostery is often a significant component of cell


signaling events.

C E L L SIGNALING

 Ce ll s i g na l i n g is part of a complex system of communication that governs basic


cellular activities and coordinates cell actions.

 The ability of cells to perceive and correctly respond to their microenvironment is the
basis of development, tissue repair, and immunity as well as normal tissue homeostasis

 Errors in cellular information processing are responsible for diseases such as cancer,
autoimmunity, and diabetes. By understanding cell signaling, diseases may be treated
effectively and, theoretically, artificial tissues may be created.

Intercellular signaling is subdivided into the following classifications:

 Autocrine signals target the cell itself. Sometimes autocrine cells can target cells
close by if they are the same type of cell as the emitting cell. An example of this are
immune cells.

 Pa r a c r i n e signals target cells in the vicinity of the emitting cell. neurotransmitters


represent an example.

 E n d o c r i n e signals target distant cells. Endocrine cells produce hormones that travel
through the blood to reach all parts of the body.

 J u x ta c r i n e signals target adjacent (touching) cells. These signals are transmitted


along cell membranes via protein or lipid components integral to the membrane and are
capable of affecting either the emitting cell or cells immediately adjacent.

Ion Channels

31
Schemati c diagram of an ion channel
1- Channel domains(typically
four per channel),
2 - Outer vestibule,
3 - Selectivity filter,
4 - Diameter of selectivity
filter,
5 - Phosphorylation site,
6 - Cell membrane.

32
Cell membrane

33
Membrane transport proteins

34
Ion channels are not pumps
Only ion channels have an aqueous pore that crosses the
membrane

35
Channels are made up of subunits

 Ion channels are made from 2-6 similar proteins or homologous


structural units ‐ P O R E- FO R M I N G S U B U N I T S - they associate creating
the functional ion channel
 In addition, many channels contain the auxiliary regulatory subunits
36
Channels are made up of subunits

 Pore-forming subunits contain an ‐helix made by ~20 hydrophobic


amino acids which interact with the annular phospholipids of the lipid
bilayer
37
Ion channel types (by gating)

38
Ligand-gated channels
Typically, these are ion channels located on the postsynaptic
(receiving) side of the neuron
Some act in response to a secreted (external) ligand- typically a
neurotransmitter such as
• Acetylcholine (ACh)
• GABA
• Glycine
• Glutamate
Some act in response to internal ligands such as G-proteins,
cGMP and cAMP, and are also regulated by internal metabolites
such as phosphoinositides, arachidonic acid, calcium.

Signal-gated channels

coupled K + channels

Modifiers of Channel Gating

Ion permeation can be


prevented by pore blockers,
e.g. voltage-dependent
block of NMDARs by Mg 2 +
