Question
Chapter 16, Problem 13RQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
The major classes of the second messenger.
Introduction:
Hormones are the first messenger molecules, the binding of which to the membrane-bound receptors triggers intracellular response. There are certain hormones, the actions of which are mediated by another set of molecules known as the second messengers. Some of the second messengers include cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate), cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate), inositol-phospholipid system, and calcium ions.

- QUESTION NO. 1 Cystic fibrosis is a frequent generic disease of Caucasians. The CF gene codes for a protein called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) which functions as a cAMP-regulated chloride channel. The protein has two membrane-spanning domains, two domains that interact with ATP, and one regulatory domain. The most common defect is in the gene for one of the ATP binding domains. The result is a protein that does not fold correctly in the endoplasmic reticulum, is not properly glycosylated, and is nor transported to the cell surface. Rather, it is degraded in the cytosol within proteasomes. Drugs that foster chaperone interaction with the mutant protein are a potential therapeutic approach. Chaperones A. are always required to direct the folding of proteins. B. when bound to protein increase the rate of protein degradation.
