Question
Chapter 6.4, Problem 3C
Summary Introduction
To determine: How a signaling pathway can be affected if a scaffold protein of that pathway is missing.
Concept introduction: Signal transduction is the process of conversion of an extracellular signal into an intracellular signal. It involves a cascade of molecules that transfers the information.

Cell signaling in plant and animal cells is similar in those ways and different in others. Offer one or more hypotheses for these similarities and differences, and cite specific examples.

Receptor downregulation often occurs via endocytosis as a means of turning off a signaling pathway. How does receptor-
mediated endocytosis result in turning off signaling?
O A. Receptor-mediated endocytosis shuts off signaling through polyubiquitination and degradation of the receptor by the
proteasome.
B. It doesn't. Signaling continues until the endosome fuses with the lysosome.
) C. Signaling is shut off rapidly through the budding of endosomes into themselves forming multivesicular bodies. This sequesters
the cytoplasmic tail from intracellular signaling proteins.
D. Receptor-mediated endocytosis shuts off signaling by sorting receptors to recycling endosomes.
