A small number of cell surface receptors and low amounts of signals (ligands) can generate a large intracellular response as each step of the signal transduction pathway can be expanded by...
A. gene amplification, i.e. increasing the number of target genes.
B. enzyme-mediated signal amplification, e.g. phosphorylation cascades.
C. the synthesis of new proteins.

What is the function of Ras during tyrosine kinase cell signaling?
a. It activates the opening of channel-linked receptors.
b. It is an enzyme that synthesizes second messengers.
c. It links the receptor protein to the MAP kinase pathway.
d. It phosphorylates other enzymes as part of a pathway.
Which of the following statements regarding signaling in normal cells and cancer cells is false?
a. In normal cells, RTK transphosphorylation is strictly dependent on ligand binding. Ligand binding promotes a
conformational change in the RTKS that is required for dimerization, and dimerization is required for
transphosphorylation.
b. Cancers cells that over-express RTK's can respond to tiny amounts of ligand, and in some instances signaling
can be ligand-independent.
c. Cancer cells that have established several autocrine signaling loops have a poor prognosis, because these
cells have enabled multiple independent mitogenic signal transduction pathways.

d. The extracellular ectodomains of all RTKS are highly conserved in primary sequence and structure.
e. RTKS have a hydrophilic extracellular ectodomain, and hydrophobic transmembrane domain, and a
hydrophilic cytoplasmic domain, which contains the catalytic portion of the protein.

- Researchers have found that a certain signal transduction pathway, illustrated in the figure below, may be responsible for the development of cancer in pancreatic cells. In normal pancreatic cells, where the pathway remains inactive, a membrane-bound receptor called Ptc inhibits a downstream protein known as Smo. The inhibition of Smo blocks the activa- tion of a complex of proteins known as the HSC, which results in the cleaving of one of its proteins called Ci. The cleaving of Ci, in turn, prevents the pathway from initiating the syn- thesis of division-facilitating enzymes. A Ptc B Smo с inhibition D A model of a Ptc signal transduction pathway under normal conditions.

CFP emits blue light and has excitation and emission wavelengths of 440 nm and 490 nm, respectively. YFP emits yellow light and has excitation and emission wavelengths of 490 nm and 527 nm, respectively. To test your hypothesis, you perform two experiments.
