SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION& QUORUM SENSING
Oleh: Dr. Giyanto
• Cell-to-cell communication is absolutely essentialfor multicellular organisms.
• Cells must communicate to coordinate their activities.
• Communication between cells is also important formany unicellular organisms.
• Biologists have discovered some universalmechanisms of cellular regulation, involving thesame small set of cell-signaling mechanisms.
• Cells may receive a variety of signals, chemicalsignals, electromagnetic signals, and mechanicalsignals.
Introduction

• Cell signaling has remained important in themicrobial world.
• Myxobacteria, soil-dwelling bacteria, use chemicalsignals to communicate nutrient availability.
• When food is scarce, cells secrete a signal to other cellsleading them to aggregate and form thick-walled spores.
• Plants and animals use hormones to signal atgreater distances.
• In animals, specialized endocrine cells releasehormones into the circulatory system, by which theythey travel to target cells inother parts of the body.
• In plants, hormones maytravel in vessels, but moreoften travel from cell tocell or by diffusion in air.

• The process must involve three stages.
• In reception, a chemical signal binds to a cellularprotein, typically at the cell’s surface.
• In transduction, binding leads to a change in thereceptor that triggers a series of changes along a signal-transduction pathway.
• In response,the transducedsignal triggersa specificcellularactivity.
• A cell targeted by a particular chemical signal has areceptor protein that recognizes the signal molecule.
• Recognition occurs when the signal binds to a specific siteon the receptor because it is complementary in shape.
• When ligands (small molecules that bind specificallyto a larger molecule) attach to the receptor protein,the receptor typically undergoes a change in shape.
• This may activate the receptor so that it can interact withother molecules.
1. A signal molecule binds to a receptorprotein causing the protein to change shape
![Page 5: 1 SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION & QUORUM SENSING Oleh: Dr. Giyanto Cell-to-cell communication is absolutely essential for multicellular organisms. Cells must communicate.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697c0111a28abf838ccbd88/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

• Most signal molecules are water-soluble and toolarge to pass through the plasma membrane.
• They influence cell activities by binding to receptorproteins on the plasma membrane.
• Binding leads to change in the shape or the receptor or toaggregation of receptors.
• These trigger changes in the intracellular environment.
• Three major types of receptors are G-protein-linkedreceptors, tyrosine-kinase receptors, and ion-channel receptors.
2. Most signal receptors are plasmamembrane proteins
• A G-protein-linked receptor consists of a receptorprotein associated with a G-protein on thecytoplasmic side.
• The receptor consists of seven alpha helices spanning themembrane.
• Effective signalmolecules includeyeast matingfactors,epinephrine,other hormones,andneurotransmitters.
G-Protein
![Page 6: 1 SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION & QUORUM SENSING Oleh: Dr. Giyanto Cell-to-cell communication is absolutely essential for multicellular organisms. Cells must communicate.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697c0111a28abf838ccbd88/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

• The G protein acts as an on-off switch.
• If GDP is bound, the G protein is inactive.
• If ATP is bound, the G protein is active.
G-Protein
• The G-protein system cycles between on and off.
• When a G-protein-linked receptor is activated bybinding with an extracellular signal molecule, thereceptor binds to an inactive G protein in membrane.
• This leads the G protein to substitute GTP for GDP.
• The G protein then binds with another membraneprotein, often an enzyme, altering its activity andleading toa cellularresponse.
G-Protein

• The G protein can also act as a GTPase enzyme andhydrolyzes the GTP, which activated it, to GDP.
• This change turns the G protein off.
• The whole system can be shut down quickly when theextracellular signal molecule is no longer present.
G-Protein
• G-protein receptor systems are extremelywidespread and diverse in their functions.
• In addition to functions already mentioned, they play animportant role during embryonic development andsensory systems.
• Similarities among G proteins and G-protein-linked receptors suggest that this signaling systemevolved very early.
• Several human diseases are the results of activities,including bacterial infections, that interfere withG-protein function.
G-Protein

• The tyrosine-kinase receptor system is especiallyeffective when the cell needs to regulate andcoordinate a variety of activities and trigger severalsignal pathways at once.
• Extracellular growth factors often bind to tyrosine-kinase receptors.
• The cytoplasmic side of these receptors function asa tyrosine kinase, transferring a phosphate groupfrom ATP to tyrosine on a substrate protein.
Tyrosine-Kinase
• A individual tyrosine-kinase receptors consists ofseveral parts:
• an extracellular signal-binding sites,
• a single alpha helix spanning the membrane, and
• an intracellulartail with severaltyrosines.
Tyrosine-Kinase
![Page 9: 1 SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION & QUORUM SENSING Oleh: Dr. Giyanto Cell-to-cell communication is absolutely essential for multicellular organisms. Cells must communicate.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062519/5697c0111a28abf838ccbd88/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

• When ligands bind to two receptors polypeptides,the polypeptides aggregate, forming a dimer.
• This activates the tyrosine-kinase section of both.
• These add phosphates to the tyrosine tails of theother polypeptide.
Tyrosine-Kinase
• The fully-activated receptor proteins activate avariety of specific relay proteins that bind tospecific phosphorylated tyrosine molecules.
• One tyrosine-kinase receptor dimer may activate ten ormore different intracellular proteins simultaneously.
• These activated relayproteins trigger manydifferent transductionpathways andresponses.
Tyrosine-Kinase

• This allows or blocks ionflow, such as Na+ or Ca2+.
• Binding by a ligand to theextracellular side changes theprotein’s shape and opens thechannel.
• Ion flow changes theconcentration inside the cell.
• When the ligand dissociates,the channel closes.
Ligand-gated ion channels
• Ligand-gated ion channelsare protein pores that open orclose in response to achemical signal.
• Ligand-gated ion channels are very important inthe nervous system.
• Similar gated ion channels respond to electrical signals.
Ligand-gated ion channels

• Testosterone, like otherhormones, travels through theblood and enters cellsthroughout the body.
• In the cytosol, they bind andactivate receptor proteins.
• These activated proteins enterthe nucleus and turn on genesthat control male sexcharacteristics.
• These activated proteins act as transcriptionfactors.
• Transcription factors control which genes are turned on- that is, which genes are transcribed into messengerRNA (mRNA).
• The mRNA molecules leave the nucleus and carryinformation that directs the synthesis (translation) ofspecific proteins at the ribosome.
• Other intracellular receptors are already in thenucleus and bind to the signal molecules there(e.g., estrogen receptors).

• The transduction stage of signaling is usually amultistep pathway.
• These pathways often greatly amplify the signal.
• If some molecules in a pathway transmit a signal tomultiple molecules of the next component, the result canbe large numbers of activated molecules at the end of thepathway.
• A small number of signal molecules can produce alarge cellular response.
• Also, multistep pathways provide more opportunitiesfor coordination and regulation than do simplersystems.

• Many signaling pathways involve small, nonprotein,water-soluble molecules or ions, called secondmessengers.
• These molecules rapidly diffuse throughout the cell.
• Second messengers participate in pathways initiatedby both G-protein-linked receptors and tyrosine-kinase receptors.
• Two of the most important are cyclic AMP and Ca2+.
3. Certain signal molecules and ions are keycomponents of signaling pathways (second
messengers)
• Other G-protein systems inhibit adenylyl cyclase.
• These use a different signal molecule to activate otherreceptors that activate inhibitory G proteins.
• Certain microbes cause disease by disrupting theG-protein signaling pathways.
• The cholera bacterium, Vibrio cholerae, colonizes thethe small intestine and produces a toxin that modifies aG protein that regulates salt and water secretion.
• The modified G protein is stuck in its active form,continuously stimulating productions of cAMP.
• This causes the intestinal cells to secrete large amountsof water and salts into the intestines, leading to profusediarrhea and death if untreated.

Quorum Sensing
• A process that enables bacteria to communicate using secretedsignaling molecules called autoinducers
• This process enables a population of bacteria to regulate geneexpression collectively and therefore, control behavior on acommunity-wide scale.
• Cell-cell communication can occur within and between bacterialspecies, and between bacteria and their eukaryotic hosts.

Quorum Sensing Systems:Gram negative class
• LuxI/R systems
• Autoinducers: acylated homoserine lactone
• LuxI-type enzymes synthesize acylated homoserine lactone(AHL) autoinducers by ligating a specific acyl moiety to thehomocysteine moiety of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)
• LuxR-type proteins bind their cognate autoinducers and controltranscription of target genes.
Quorum Sensing Systems:Gram positive class
• Two-component systems involved
• Autoinducers: modified oligopeptides
• The signals are synthesized as precursor peptides, which aresubsequently processed and secreted
• Sensor histidine kinases detect the extracellular peptideautoinducers, autophosphorylate and transmit sensoryinformation via phosphorylation of a response regulator
• Response regulator changes gene expression

Quorum Sensing Systems:The hybrid class
• This class was initially identified in Vibrio harveyi.
• It produces two disinct autoinducers, AI-1 and AI-2
• AI-1 is an acylated homoserine lactone (AHL), similar to Gramnegative class
• AI-2 has no resemblance to other inducers
• Both AI-1 and AI-2 signal transduction occurs by a two-component system, similar to Gram positive class. Thus, this isa hybrid class.

Quorum Sensing Systems
Intraspecies vs interspeciescommunications
• AHL type autoinducers are for intraspeciescommunications
• AI-2 and its synthase, LuxS, are widespread,existing in many bacterial phyla. AI-2 issuggested to serve as an interspecies bacterialcommunication signal.

Signal Discrimination
• Many bacteria possess multiple quorum-sensing systems, whichcan be organized in series or in parallel.
• V. harveyi responds to AI-1 and AI-2 in parallel.
• B. subtilis also uses parallel systems to respond to differentoligopeptide autoinducers.
• P. aeruginosa uses two LuxI/R systems acting in series toregulate overlapping groups of target genes.
