What are characteristics of neurotransmitters?

Neurotransmitters are released in response to stimulation. They alter the physiology of the postsynaptic cell. They are synthesized by a presynaptic neuron. They bind to specific receptors on the postsynaptic cell.


Where are neurotransmitters synthesized and stored?

Neurotransmitters are synthesized inside the neuron's cell body and stored in vesicles at the nerve terminal. When an action potential occurs, the neurotransmitters are released into the synaptic cleft to transmit signals to the next neuron.


Which class of hormones is not stored in the secretory cell after being synthesized?

peptide hormones and catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine)


What region of the cell secretes neurotransmitters?

Neurotransmitters are typically synthesized and stored in the synaptic vesicles of the presynaptic terminal, which is located at the end of the neuron. When an action potential arrives, these vesicles release neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft to communicate with the postsynaptic neuron.


Why bacteriocin is called ribosomally synthesised peptide?

I think it is to point out that the antimicrobial molecule is a peptide and synthesized as a protein normally is, via the ribosome, as compared to the nonribosomal antimicrobial peptides that are produced by 'nonribosomal peptide synthetases'.


Many hormones synthesized in the gastrointestinal tract are chemically identical to brain neurotransmitters?

true


Where in the cell are ribosomal proteins synthesized?

Ribosomal proteins are synthesized in the cytoplasm of the cell.


Peptide hormones are synthesized as large precursor hormones called vasopression The hormones are stored in where?

preprohormones


Peptide hormones that are synthesized as a large precursor homone is called?

prohormones. These prohormones are inactive and need to be cleaved or modified to become biologically active peptide hormones.


Is acetylcholine a hormone?

No, it is a neurotransmitter. A hormone, is a compound produced by an endocrine gland and released into the bloodstream. A neurotransmitters are chemicals that transmit signals from a neuron to a target cell across the synapse and most are synthesized at the nerve terminals.


The type of reaction by which proteins are synthesized?

Proteins are synthesized through a process called translation, where the messenger RNA (mRNA) is read by ribosomes to assemble amino acids into a polypeptide chain according to the genetic code. This process occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.


Where fats are synthesized in the cell?
