Which of the following is incorrect about pathways activated by G-proteincoupled receptors? a. The extracellular signaling molecule is the first messenger. b. When activated, plasma membrane-bound G protein canswitch on an effector. c. Second messengers enter the nucleus. d. ATP converts to cAMP to activate protein kinases. e. Protein kinases phosphorylate molecules to change cellularactivity.
What effect will a cAMP inhibitor have on a peptide hormone-mediated signaling pathway? It will prevent the hormone from binding its receptor It will prevent activation of a G-protein It will prevent activation of adenylate cyclase It will prevent activation of protein kinases.
Trace the sequence of events in signal transduction for each of the following second messengers: cyclic AMP, inositol trisphosphate (IP3), diacylglycerol (DAG), and calcium ions.
Discuss Concepts Describe the possible ways in which a G-proteincoupled receptor pathway could become defective and not trigger any cellular responses.
Histamine binds to the H1 G-protein-linked receptor to initiate the itchiness and airway constriction associated with an allergic response. If a mutation in the associated G-protein’s alpha subunit prevented the hydrolysis of GTP how would the allergic response change? More severe allergic response compared to normal G-protein signaling. Less severe allergic response compared to normal G-protein signaling. No allergic response. No change compared to normal G-protein signaling.
Outline the three general means by which binding of a water soluble extracellular chemical messenger to its matching surface membrane receptor brings about the desired intracellular response.
Figure 9.8 HER2 is a receptor tyrosine kinase. In 30 percent of human breast cancers, HER2 is permanently activated, resulting in unregulated cell division. Lapatinib, a drug used to treat breast cancer, inhibits HER2 receptor tyrosine kinase autophosphorylation (the process by which the receptor adds phosphates onto itself), thus reducing tumor growth by 50 percent. Besides autophosphorylation, which of the following steps would be inhibited by Lapatinib? Signaling molecule binding, dimerization, and the downstream cellular response. Dimerization, and the downstream cellular response. The downstream cellular response. Phosphatase activity, dimerization, and the downsteam cellular response.
