1. Ionotropic GABA receptors are ligand-gated Cl channels which open during GABA-ergicsignaling.a) Describe how under normal circumstances the opening of these channels leads to an IPSP.Do this in the context of Eci.b) Some cells in the body express a Na*/K+/2Cl cotransporter which pumps Cl- into the ICF.Where these pumps are present, the same GABA receptor is actually excitatory. Again, inthe context of Ea describe how the same receptor would be excitatory in cells which activelypump Cl- into the ICF. You do not need to repeat information you provided in part (a)

Briefly explain the difference between a receptor antagonist and a receptor inverse agonist. Describe both the resulting receptor conformation as well as the signal transduction.
13) Draw a graph representing the changes in membrane potential across the axonal membrane before, during, and after an action potential. On your graph, use a highlighter to clearly indicate for which portions of your graph the letter corresponding to each cellular event listed below belongs. List of cellular events: A) All K* channels open B) All Na* channels close C) The Na*/K* ATPase cotransporter transports Na* and K* across the membrane. D) All Na* channels open E) The threshold value of membrane potential is attained. F) All K* channels close G) Some Na* channels open Your graph:
Separately, draw a table using arrows to depict the appropriate magnitude and direction of the forces and ion fluxes at different membrane potentials for a ligand-gated channel that is equally permeable to both ion X+ and ion Y+. The equilibrium potential for ion X+ is -60 mV, and the equilibrium potential for ion Y+ is -20 mV. Which item best represents the forces and fluxes for a membrane potential of -40 mV (a, b, c, or d)? Upwards arrows means outward direction and downwards arrow means inward direction. The length of the arrow determines the magnitude.
Beta-blockers are used to treat cardiovascular disorders because they are antagonists at beta-adrenergic receptors. Within the cell this activity will be seen as? OA) Increased signaling via the G₁ protein B) Increased protein kinase A activity Decreased phospholipase C activity D) Decreased cAMP levels E) Increased inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels
Separately, draw a table using arrows to depict the appropriate magnitude and direction of the forces and ion fluxes at different membrane potentials for a ligand-gated channel that is equally permeable to both ion X+ and ion Y+. The equilibrium potential for ion X+ is -60 mV, and the equilibrium potential for ion Y+ is -20 mV. Which item best represents the forces and fluxes for a membrane potential of +40 mV?
The top panel (a) of this figure shows the graded potential change (far right, upper, electrical trace) that results from ligand binding to the ligand gated Na+ channel. The bottom panel of this figure (b) shows a graded potential change (far right, lower, electrical trace) that results from ligand binding to a ligand gated Cl- channel. From this trace you know (Vm = -70 mV) 1. ECl- is -70 mV 2. ECl- is more negative than -70 mV (i.e., -80 mV) 3. ECl- is more positive than -70 mV (i.e., -60 mV)
Chloride ions (Cl-) behave a bit differently to Na+ and K+ in that most cells don't have active Cl- transporters. As a result, the concentration gradient for Cl- is not 'set' like it is for Na+ and K+. There are, however, a limited number of Cl- leak channels in the cell membrane. As a result, Eci generally matches resting membrane potential - around - 70mV. Considering this, answer the following questions. If Cl- can cross the cell membrane, is not being actively transported, and membrane potential is -70mV, will there be a concentration gradient for Cl-?
A GRK inhibitor would have what effect on GPCR inactivation in the presence of a GPCR agonist? (a) it would decrease it; (b) it would maintain the same rate of inactivation; (c) it would increase it.
The resting membrane potential…A) Can be approximated using the Nernst equation.B) Is established by a difference in charges across the cell membrane, with the inside more positive than the outside.C) Has no influence on the driving force for flow of a particular ion across the cell membrane.D) Is more dependent on the passive flow of potassium vs. sodium ions through leak channels across the cell membrane.E) Stays the same during an action potential.
apucreceptors ava ble at the synapse are reflected in this number. Question 2: In this chapter, we discussed a GABA-gated ion channel that is permeable to Cl. GABA also activates a G-protein-coupled receptor called the GABA receptor, which causes potassium-selective B channels to open. What effect would GABAB receptor activation have on the membrane potential? GABAB receptor activation causes potassium-selective channels to open. As a result this bringhs the
Based on your knowledge of signal transduction downstream of G-protein coupled receptors, describe the pathway by which sulcatone may cause an action potential?
