Compare and contrast the mechanisms and locations of the effects of peptide and amine hormones and steroid hormones. (Answer in table form if you wish.)

Expert Solution

	Peptide hormones	Amino acid derivatives	Steroid Hormones
Composition	Oligopeptides	Derivative of the amino acid, Tyrosine	Steroidal
Solubility	Water soluble	May or may not be soluble in water	Insoluble in water
Storage	Stored before release	May or may not get stored	Released immediately
Transport	Freely move	Insoluble ones are associated with proteins	Associate with some proteins
Location	The receptor to the peptide hormones are located on the cell membrane.	The soluble ones act on the cell membrane while the insoluble ones act on the nuclear membrane	The receptors are on nuclear membrane
Mechanism of action	The peptides effectuate through the secondary messenger system	The hormone may act directly or via secondary messengers	Directly effectuate the response
Act via	Alteration in the Protein activity or expression	Alteration in the Protein activity or expression	Alteration in the Protein expression
