Question:
Which of the following statements are correct? Explain your answers.
A. The extracellular signal molecule acetylcholine has different effects on different cell types in an animal and often binds to different cell-surface receptor molecules on different cell types.
B. After acetylcholine is secreted from cells, it is long-lived, because it has to reach target cells all over the body.
C. Both the GTP-bound α subunits and nucleotide-free βγ complexes—but not GDP-bound, fully assembled
G. proteins—can activate other molecules downstream of GPCRs.
D. IP3 is produced directly by cleavage of an inositol phospholipid without incorporation of an additional phosphate group.
E. Calmodulin regulates the intracellular Ca2+ concentration.
F. Different signals originating from the plasma membrane can be integrated by cross-talk between different signaling pathways inside the cell.
G. Tyrosine phosphorylation serves to build binding sites for other proteins to bind to RTKs.
