Master G-Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) in one comprehensive video! 🧬 In this lecture, we break down the entire GPCR signaling mechanism step-by-step—from ligand binding to downstream cellular cascades involving Gs, Gi, and Gq proteins, Adenylyl Cyclase, cAMP, PKA, Phospholipase C (PLC), IP3, DAG, and intracellular Calcium release.
Whether you are preparing for USMLE, MCAT, NEET-PG, CSIR NET Life Sciences, Pharmacy (GPAT), or university physiology and biochemistry exams, this visual guide provides all the high-yield concepts and pathways you need.
📌 Timestamps:
Introduction to G-Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs)
GPCR Structure: 7-Transmembrane Domains & Heterotrimeric G-Proteins
Receptor Activation Cycle: GDP to GTP Exchange
The G_s Pathway: Adenylyl Cyclase, cAMP & Protein Kinase A (PKA)
The G_i Pathway: Adenylyl Cyclase Inhibition & Regulation
The G_q Pathway: Phospholipase C (PLC), IP_3, DAG & Ca^{2+} Release
Signal Termination: GTPase Activity, Phosphodiesterases (PDEs), & \beta-Arrestin
High-Yield Clinical Pharmacology & Disease Correlations
Summary & Key Takeaways
💡 Key Takeaways Covered:
G_s pathway: Stimulates adenylyl cyclase \rightarrow increases cAMP \rightarrow activates PKA.
G_i pathway: Inhibits adenylyl cyclase \rightarrow decreases cAMP \rightarrow dampens downstream phosphorylation.
G_q pathway: Activates Phospholipase C \beta (PLC$\beta$) \rightarrow cleaves \text{PIP}_2 into IP_3 and DAG \rightarrow induces Ca^{2+} efflux from the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum and activates Protein Kinase C (PKC).
Desensitization: GRKs (G-protein receptor kinases) and \beta-arrestin mediated internalization.
