Question

1. Which of the following will be most likely to occur in liver cells treated with both glucagon and a competitive inhibitor of adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity?

ATP will be converted to cAMP

The G-protein will exchange GDP for GTP

glycogen will be broken down into glucose

2. How are steroid hormone receptors and cell-surface receptors similar?

When activated the signals of both types are transduced across the plasma membrane.

Both types undergo a conformational change when they bind to their ligand.

When bound to their ligand, both types enter the nucleus to activate transcription.

Both types cause GDP to be exchanged for GTP in a G protein.

Explanation / Answer

1. glycogen will be broken down into glucose

2. Both types undergo a conformational change when they bind to their ligand.
