- 1. Insulin is a protein that allows sugar (glucose) to enter the body's cells (mainly liver, adipose tissue and skeletal muscle). This hormone plays a key role in the regulation of glucose levels in the blood ('hypoglycemic' effect). It is produced by the beta cells in the pancreas.A piece of the gene sequence that encodes for insulin contains: 5’ ATG-GCC-CTG-TGG-ATG-CGC-CTC-CTG-CCC-CTG-CTG-GCG-CTG-CTG-GCC-CTC-TGG-GGA-CCT-GAC- CCA-GCC-GCA-GCC-TTT-GTG-AAC-CAA-CAC-CTG-TGC-GGC-TCA-CAC-CTG-GTG-GAA-GCT-CTC-TAC-CTA-GTG-TGC-GGG-GAA-CGA-GGC-TTC-TTC-TAC-ACA-CCC-AAG-ACC-CGC-CGG-GAG-GCA-GAG-GAC-CTG-CAG-GTG-GGG-CAG-GTG-GAG-CTG-GGC-GGG-GGC-CCT-GGT-GCA-GGC-AGC-CTG-CAG-CCC-TTG-GCC-CTG-GAG-GGG-TCC-CTG-CAG-AAG-CGT-GGC-ATT-GTG-GAA-CAA-TGC-TGT-ACC-AGC-ATC-TGC-TCC-CTC-TAC-CAG-CTG-GAG-AAC-TAC-TGC-AAC-TAG 3’ a.

Steroids are made from cholesterol a type of fat d. Steroids do not use nuclear receptorsA small molecule binds to a G protein, preventing its activation. What direct effect will this have on signaling that involves cAMP? The hormone will not be able to bind to the hormone receptor. Adenylyl cyclase will not be activated. Excessive quantities of cAMP will be produced. The phosphorylation cascade will be initiated.A scientist hypothesizes that the pancreas’s hormone production is controlled by neural stimuli. Which observation would support this hypothesis? Insulin is produced in response to sudden stress without a rise in blood glucose Insulin is produced in response to a rise in glucagon levels Beta cells express epinephrine receptors Insulin is produced in response to a rise in blood glucose in the brain.
- When growth hormone binds to an enzyme-linked receptor, (a) G proteins are amplified into a cascade of molecules (b) the enzyme portion of the receptor becomes dephosphorylated (c) the receptor becomes activated and phosphorylates signaling proteins in the cell (d) an ion channel is opened (e) an immediate signal is sent into the nucleus, and specific genes are activated or inhibitedThe secretion of hormones by the pituitary gland is an example of.____ autocrine signaling paracrine signaling endocrine signaling direct signaling across gap junctionsDuring signal transduction (a) the cell converts an extracellular signal into an intracellular signal that leads to a change in some cell process (b) a signaling molecule directly activates or represses several genes (c) each enzyme catalyzes production of one molecule of product (d) enzymes in the signal cascade remain active until the last component of the pathway alters a cellular process (e) the signal is terminated by cyclic AMP
