Quiz zum Vortrag
Which statement regarding hormone receptors is true?
- They change shape when binding occurs.
- They are always membrane bound.
- They change shape on binding to another receptor.
- They require co-factors to be stimulated.
- They are specific to a single type of substance.
Which statement regarding second messengers is true?
- They use covalent interactions to modify proteins.
- They use hydrogen interactions to modify proteins.
- They carry messages out of cells.
- They use van der Waals forces to modify proteins.
What acts as a second messenger inside the cell? Select all that apply.
- Inositol-1, 4, 5-triphosphate
- Deoxyribose nucleic acid
- cAMP
- cGMP
- Ca+2 ions
What kind of modification occurs during the communication of signals via the second messenger molecules in the case of non-steroid hormones?
- Covalent changes in protein molecules.
- Hydration of protein molecules.
- Dehydration of protein molecules.
- Conversion of triple bonds to double bonds between the 2 carbon atoms of a protein molecule.
- Conversion of triple bonds to single bonds between the 2 carbon atoms of a protein molecule.
Which statement regarding phospholipase C is true?
- An activated phospholipase C enzyme catalyzes the breakdown of the PIP2 molecule to IP3 and DAG.
- Phospholipase C protein acts as a second messenger that directly stimulates the gene expressions by binding with the DNA molecules.
- Phospholipase C protein acts as a second messenger molecule for the synthesis of PIP2 from DAG and IP3.
