Cell Communication
AP Biology
Cell-Cell Communication
 Animal cells use gap junctions to send
signals
Cells must be in direct contact
 Protein channels connecting two
adjoining cells

Gap junctions
between animal cells
AP Biology
Cell-Cell Communication
 Plant cells use plasmodesmata to send
signals
Cells must be in direct contact
 Gaps in the cell wall connecting the two
adjoining cells together

Plasmodesmata
between plant cells
AP Biology
Local Signaling
 Other types of signaling over a short
distance

Cell-cell recognition
 Membrane bound cell surface molecules
 Glycoproteins
 Glyolipids

Local regulators
 Growth factors
 Only work over a short distance
AP Biology
Long-Distance Signaling
 Nervous System in Animals

Electrical signals through neurons
 Endocrine System in Animals

Uses hormones to transmit messages
over long distances
 Plants also use hormones
Some transported through vascular
system
 Others are released into the air

AP Biology
Three Stages of Cell Signaling
EXTRACELLULAR
FLUID
CYTOPLASM
Plasma membrane
1 Reception
Receptor
The receptor and signaling molecules
fit together (lock and key model,
induced fit model, just like enzymes!)
Signaling
molecule
 Signaling molecule binds to the
receptor protein

Relay molecules in a signal transduction pathway
Signaling
molecule
 The signal is converted into a form that
can produce a cellular response

Signaling
molecule
Can be catalysis, activation of a gene,
triggering apoptosis, almost anything!
 The transduced signal triggers a
cellular response

molecule
 Specificity of the
Receptor
signal


The same signal
molecule can
trigger different
responses
Many responses
can come from
one signal!
Relay
molecules
Response 1
Response 2
Response 3
Cell A. Pathway leads Cell B. Pathway branches,
to a single response. leading to two responses.
AP Biology
 The signal
can also
trigger an
activator or
inhibitor
 The signal
can also
trigger
multiple
receptors and
different
responses
Activation
or inhibition
Response 4
Response 5
Cell C. Cross-talk occurs Cell D. Different receptor
between two pathways.
leads to a different response.
