A hormone signals through a G protein- coupled receptor as shown in the diagram. After the production of IP3, which of these events will MOST quickly stop the transduction of the signal?
A. the hydrolysis of IP3
B. the hydrolysis of GTP
C. the hydrolysis of PIP2
D. the hydrolysis of the hormone
A hormone signals through a G protein-coupled receptor as shown in the diagram. After the production of IP3, which of these events will MOST quickly stop the transduction of the signal?
A. the hydrolysis of IP3
B. the hydrolysis of GTP
C. the hydrolysis of PIP2
D. the hydrolysis of the hormone
I believe the answer is (B) the hydrolysisof GTP, because the G protein becomes inactive after GTP is hydrolyzed to GDP. However, the solution provided by Bartleby is (C). Please explain. Thanks
Endocrine signals are transmitted more slowly than paracrine signals because ___________. a. the ligands are transported through the bloodstream and travel greater distances b. the target and signaling cells are close together c. the ligands are degraded rapidly d. the ligands don't bind to carrier proteins during transport
