Which of the following is not part of the photoreceptors Guanylyl cyclase

Transducin

Phosphodiesterase

Voltage gated sodium channels

Opsin

Expert Solution

Answer d)Voltage gated Sodium channels

It is CGMP gated sodium channeld and not voltage gated sodium channels .

Steps of Phototransduction

* Light falls on Cornea and then through Lens it reaches the Retina.Here light is absorbed by retinal molecule and then is passes through Bipolar and Retinal cells in Retina

*When light falls on the the outer Segment of Rods ( 11 cis retinal + Opsin) it dissociate into All trans Retinal and Opsin got separates out

*After formation of All trans retinal ,it is the trnanducin which is activated by releasing GDP and get converted into activated Transducin with GTP .

*Activated transducin activate Phosphodiesterases enzyme which is responsibe for degradation of Cyclic GMP ( guanosine monophoshate )

*Cyclic GMP is responsible for opened Na+ Channels .

*Separated opsin produces these reactions tleads to close some of the Na+ channels, and the result is a hyperpolarizing receptor potential.

So guanyl cyclase include Transducin ,phosphodiesterase and Voltage gated Sodium channels but not Opsin .

Which of the following statements regarding voltage-gated sodium channels are TRUE? Choose all of the correct answers. They actively transport sodium against its concentration gradient. They have two separate gating mechanisms: an activation gate and an inactivation gate. They transition to the activated conformation upon membrane depolarization to above threshold potentials. They directly participate in the mechanism for glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells.

Which statement is INCORRECT regarding voltage-gated potassium channels? - The gating of the channel involves movements of transmembrane helices. - The K+ is transported down its concentration gradient. - A cytoplasmic inactivation peptide blocks the channel in response to voltage changes. - K+ coordinates to C=0 groups in the channel. - All of the above.

Describe the importance of voltage-gated channels in the conduction of an action potential.

Which of the following occurs in photoreceptors when they are exposed to the appropriate wavelength of light? Opsin and all-trans retinal combine to form rhodopsin. PDE enzyme is activated, which increases cGMP levels. Light-gated Na+ channels open, which depolarizes the cell. cGMP levels decrease, which closes Na+ channels and hyperpolarizes the cell.
