Difference between Ligand (biochemistry) and Methamphetamine

Ligand (biochemistry) vs. Methamphetamine

In biochemistry and pharmacology, a ligand is a substance that forms a complex with a biomolecule to serve a biological purpose. Methamphetamine (contracted from) is a potent central nervous system (CNS) stimulant that is mainly used as a recreational drug and less commonly as a second-line treatment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and obesity.

Similarities between Ligand (biochemistry) and Methamphetamine

Ligand (biochemistry) and Methamphetamine have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Agonist, Concentration, G protein–coupled receptor, Ligand-gated ion channel.

Agonist

An agonist is a chemical that binds to a receptor and activates the receptor to produce a biological response.

Concentration

In chemistry, concentration is the abundance of a constituent divided by the total volume of a mixture.

G protein–coupled receptor

G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), also known as seven-(pass)-transmembrane domain receptors, 7TM receptors, heptahelical receptors, serpentine receptor, and G protein–linked receptors (GPLR), constitute a large protein family of receptors that detect molecules outside the cell and activate internal signal transduction pathways and, ultimately, cellular responses.

Ligand-gated ion channel

Ligand-gated ion channels (LICs, LGIC), also commonly referred as ionotropic receptors, are a group of transmembrane ion-channel proteins which open to allow ions such as Na+, K+, Ca2+, and/or Cl− to pass through the membrane in response to the binding of a chemical messenger (i.e. a ligand), such as a neurotransmitter.
