The three common features of the activation of cytokine receptors and receptors tyrosine kinases. A difference between these receptors according to enzymatic activity.
Introduction:
Cytokine receptors are the cell-surface glycoproteins which bind to the cytokines and transduce their signals. These receptors allow the cells to communicate with their extracellular environment. It is done by giving a response to signals produced in the surroundings or in different parts of an organism. Tyrosine kinase (an enzyme) which helps in the phosphate group transfer from the ATP molecule to a protein in the cell. Its main role is as an "on" or "off" switch in most of the cellular functions.

Explanation of Solution
The three common features of the activation of cytokine receptors and receptors tyrosine kinases are as follows:
1. Both cytokine receptors and the receptor's tyrosine kinases (RTKs) help in the formation of functional dimers after binding with their ligands. After the dimerization process, the poorly active cytosolic kinase usually phosphorylates the other one on a definite tyrosine in the activation site.
2. In this phosphorylation, the kinase is activated which again phosphorylates the second kinase of the dimer. It also happens in other tyrosine residues of the receptor.
3. Both the RTKs and cytokine receptors act as the reducing locations for the signaling molecules. These signaling molecules link to these phospho-tyrosine sites.
A big difference between the RTKs and cytokine receptors is:
The RTK is itself a tyrosine kinase, while the cytokine receptor does not possess catalytic activity. Rather cytokine receptor is linked with a JAnus Kinase (JAK kinase).
Thus, the common features include the phosphorylation the activation of cytokine receptors and receptors tyrosine kinases. The difference between these two is that the cytokine receptor does not possess catalytic activity while RTK is an enzyme which possesses this activity.

- We will be starting a group project next week where you and your group will research and ultimately present on a current research article related to the biology of a pathogen that infects humans. The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates.

- One of the ways for a cell to generate ATP is through the oxidative phosphorylation. In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardIf a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardHow do i know which way the arrows go?arrow_forward
