Question
Chapter 11.2, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To know: The location of NGF receptor in cell.
Introduction: Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a molecule, which helps to regulate growth and development and it also maintains the sensory neurons. The nerve growth factor (NGF) is involved in the growth and survival of neurons.

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is a water-soluble signalingmolecule. Would you expect the receptor for NGF to beintracellular or in the plasma membrane? Why?
Suppose that a G protein undergoes a mutation that allows the exchange of bound GTP for GDP to occur in the absence of G protein binding to a receptor. How might this mutation affect signaling involving a GPCR? Which subunit of the G protein is most likely affected by the mutation?
