Question 1 A new receptor has been discovered in the cells of the human liver. The following information has been identified: i. The receptor forms homomultimers ii. The receptor binds to viral RNA. iii. The receptor uses the adaptor protein MAVS a. What receptor family would you hypothesize this new member belongs to and why? b. Researchers are trying to determine what the outcome of this pathway could be, what would you anticipate and why? c. Where would you expect this receptor to be located in a cell and why?
