Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Crosstalk is the interaction that occurs between signaling pathways that tends to either initiate or inhibit that pathway. This can occur in different ways, such as activation of target protein by protein kinases of other pathway that brings about different response.

Students have asked these similar questions
Which receptor undergoes clustering and autophosphorylation in response to activation by a signal? Group of answer choices: a)Ligand-gated ion channels b)Receptor Tyrosine Kinases (RTKs) c)G-Protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) d)Nuclear Receptors
What is signal transduction? Illustrate and describe the molecular events in signal transduction pathways involving 1) G-protein-coupled receptors and 2) enzyme linked receptors.
1. A mutation was introduced to the active site of the enzyme in a receptor tyrosine kinase so that it remains active in the absence of a substrate. What is the effect of this mutation on the signal transductionpathway?A. The phosphatase activity of the enzyme will be activated which will lead to receptor dimerization and subsequent cellular response.B. The signal molecule will bind to the receptor and dimerization will occur but the subsequent cellular response will be inhibited.C. The signal molecule will bind to the receptor but dimerization and subsequent cellular response will be inhibited.D. The signal molecule will bind to the receptor which will then triggers receptor dimerization and downstream cellular response.   2. Which of the following is not an advantage of non-coding regions of DNA?A. Some of these regions contain inactivated genes that can be reactivated upon insertion of regulatory sequences by mobile DNA elements.B. Some of these regions protect eukaryotic DNA from…
