As soon as the ligand binds to the receptor, the receptor changes conformation (the protein that makes up the channel changes shape), and as they do so they create a small opening that is big enough for ions to travel through. Therefore, ionotropic receptors are âligand-gated transmembrane ion channelsâ.
Question: G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are two basic receptor types by which cells transduce signals. G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are two basic receptor types by which cells transduce signals. Classify the phrases by whether they describe GPCRs, RTKs, both types of receptors, or neither of these two types: View this answer.
