Suppose that you measured binding to the isolated EGF receptor of EGFat various concentrations. Would you expect the binding curve to be hyperbolic? Explain your answer.
Based on data, which aptamer would consider to be the primary receptor for the FGF5 ligand? Explain your answer.
Discuss genetic evidence that lacI encodes an allostericrepressor protein that binds the operator DNA.
You have developed an activator of a non-receptor tyrosine kinase. In three different cell types that all contain this receptor your drug has different effects. In cell type A you see activation of gene X and gene Y; in cell type B you note activation of Gene X, but no change in the mRNA levels for Gene Y. In cell type C your drug has no effect on either Gene X or Y. Describe how could each choice (A-D) be a possibility to suit the scenario? a. Genes X & Y are controlled by two separate STATs (STAT X & STAT Y). Cell type A contains both STATs; cell type B contains STAT X only; cell type C has neither STAT. b. Genes X & Y are controlled by two separate STATs (STAT X & STAT Y) and two separate JAKs (JAK X & JAK Y). Cell type A contains both STATs and JAKs; cell type B contains both STATs but JAK X only; cell type C has both STATs but neither JAK. c. Genes X & Y are controlled by two separate STATs (STAT X & STAT Y), two separate JAKs (JAK X & JAK Y) and…

The receptor or drug target in this case was the rat GABAA receptor obtained from homogenised rat brain cortical tissue. Using the same radioligand binding technique, what other way could you look at ligand affinity to GABAA receptors without using GABAA receptors derived from homogenised tissue and What are the advantages/disadvantages to each strategy?
Which of the following mutations would produce a form of the Ras protein that would be more difficult to inactivate than normal Ras? Briefly explain your reasoning.(i) A mutation that allows Ras to cleave (hydrolyze) GTP more rapidly than usual(ii) A mutation that causes Ras to bind Ras-GAP more tightly than usual(iii) A mutation that causes Ras to cleave (hydrolyze) GTP more slowly than usual
The hypothesis for the experiment shown in the picture is that the TamC3 and TamR3 cell lines function, and grow the absence of estrogen, receptor function. Reduced reliance on estrogen, receptor signaling alters mTOR pathway activity. If this hypothesis is true, then mediators of mTOR signaling (Akt or p70S6K) should have reduced levels of phosphorylation. Where would you look to see this? Why does the data in the picture not support the hypothesis?
GC (Glycocorticoids) binds to the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), which leads to the transcription of a series of genes (PC, PCK1, FBP1, PFKFB1, G6PC and G6P transporter (SLC37A4)) involved in gluconeogenesis. What type of receptor is GR? Where would you expect the activated GR to be located to enhance the expression of the gluconeogenic genes? Which cis-acting elements are used by GR as an activator to turn gene transcription “on”?
Muckle–Wells syndrome is an autosomal dominantly inherited disease due to mutations in NLRP3.
