How does the Ras-mediated MAPK pathway influence gene expression?
(Analogous to a signaling system) (cell signaling book)
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- How gene expression is regulated by Ras mediated MAPK pathway? (Signalling pathway)(cell signaling book)How machinery of gene regulation is controlled by cell signaling? (Cell signaling books ) (Signal transduction books)Part A (Short Response): You are developing a TGF-β agonist, but you don’t yet know which specific proteins it is signaling through. You want to do a single Western blot to measure changes in signaling activity, regardless of which pathway is being activated. For which protein involved in these pathways could you measure the levels in the nucleus of cells and be confident in your results? Why? This part was already posted on chegg, but I didn't understand the answer. I need a thorough explanation, so I can fully understand. Part B (Short Response): There have been many attempts to block TGF-β signaling in cancer through many different mechanisms, but none of been very successful. Why do you think this is? I know they have gotten close to being successful, but I don't know what preventing their success.

- How does each of these small GTP-binding proteins contribute to the regulation of cell migration?What is the benefit of using second messangers and phosphorylation cascades during the transduction step of cell signaling?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.
