Step 1 Introduction
Enzymes are the various biologically active proteins that catalyze various metabolic processes in the body. They are important for cellular function and health maintenance. They combine with coenzymes that enable the various senses and systems occurring in the body such as moving, digesting food, and thinking. Some examples of types of enzymes are lipases, amylases, and kinases.

- QUESTION 14 What switches off an activated G protein? A molecule of GDP replaces the GTP. There is an enzyme that reassembles the trimeric G protein. Ca2+ ions activate CAMKII, which inactivates the protein. The protein contains intrinsic GTPase activity which converts GTP to GDP. A phosphorylase enzyme removes the phosphate from the GTP.arrow_forwardI need the answer as soon as possiblearrow_forward284arrow_forward

In a protein kinase cascade, the signal is amplified at each step of the cascade. O b. The major difference between a cell that responds to a signal and one that does not is the presence of a receptor O c. Adenylyl cyclase is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of ATP to CAMP. Od. In a protein kinase cascade, variation in the response is not possible. O e. Signals can reach target cells in multicellular organisms by diffusion or by circulation in the blood.arrow_forwardQUESTION 23 Which type of enzyme phosphorylates a protein?
