1. classic synap- Presynaptic to synaptic to post synaptic
tic neurotrans-
mission
2. retrograde neu- Neurotransmitter moves to opposite direction from post synaptic to presynaptic
rotransmission Used to limit a response
3. volume transmis- Neurotransmitter spills over to other synapses by diffusion
sion
4. signal transduc- Triggered by chemical neurotransmitter from presynaptic neuron
tion cascade -Ligand binds to receptor which is activated to bind to G-protien and series of
messengers
5. ultimate goal of ultimate goal is to turn off or on gene (GENE EXPRESSION) and production of
signal transduc- phosphoprotien
tion cascade
6. ultimate targets to turn on or turn off genes (Gene Expression) and to produce phosphoprotiens
of signal trans-
mission
7. second messen- change occurs to bind to G-protien -which changes to bind to enzyme -which
ger changes and forms second messenger
8. 2nd messenger Intracellular
found?
9. G-linked protein Activated by binding to receptor after receptor has been conformational changed
by neurotransmitter.
10. G-linked protein's Once bound to receptor G-linked protien changes shape and binds to enzyme
role? which then release second messenger to next enzyme in signal transduction
cascade.

11. phosphoproteins Involved in transduction
Phosphoprotiens are target along STC - these change how Neurotransmitter is
released
12. phosphopro- Helps to send message to gene
teins formed One of the end targets along with the gene
Works on ion conduction
13. transcription fac- Converting DNA into RNA
tors?
14. transcription fac- gene expression
tors final target
15. neuronal gene environmental factors can affect gene expression - (important things to take away)
expression
16. Epigenetics can turn gene on or off by modifying cromatin in cell nucleus
17. 4 epigenetics chromatin
DNA methylation
Histone modifications
Other chromatone remodeling events
18. G-protein linked G- protein important in NT
receptors Major target for psych drugs
If you stop g-protein you can stop gene expression
-bind to other things to cause conformational change to trigger the rest of the
signal process.
Part of whole messenger system
Cause changes that allow messages to pass down pathway
19. agonist
