What are the three parts of signal transduction pathway?

• reception, transduction, response

• confirmation, transduction, transcription

• reception, amplification, transcription

• confirmation, amplification, response

Transduction step traditionally amplifies the signal, which of the following are NOT involved with transduction?

• secondary messengers

• protein modification

• phosphorylation cascade

• ligands

Which of the following is NOT a response by the cell from a signal transduction pathway?

• cell growth

• gene expression

• secretion of molecules

• all of the above are responses

Describe what occurs when the ligand binds to the receptor.

• confirmation change in shape of receptor

• phosphorylation of ligand

• ligand passes through the membrane

• receptor binds additional ligands

Describe the impact of a mutation in any domain of the protein components of the transduction signaling pathway.

• receptor unable to bind to ligand

• no changes in transduction due to initial signal transduction from ligand

• alters response of the cell

• amplification of signaling pathway to bind more ligands
