10 A) Which of the following statements about phospholipase C signaling is true?

It cleaves an inositol derivative into membrane-associated IP3 and diffusible DAG.

Upon GPCR activation, GDP is replaced by GTP on the G-alpha subunit, which directly activates phospholipase C.

DAG and IP3 are intimately involved in intracellular Na+ signaling.

The substrate of phospholipase C is inositol.

10 B) Of the components of a heterotrimeric G protein, which subunit is able to activate downstream responses?

only the ? subunit

only the ? subunit

only the ?/? subunits

both the ? subunit and the ?/? subunits

A. Hemoglobin is a heterotetramer with two alpha subunits and two beta subunits. Each subunit has the capability of binding to one oxygen molecule.

a. True

b. False

B. Which hemoglobin subunit is most likely to be in the R state?

a. a de-oxygenated beta subunit in a tetramer where two other subunits are de-oxygenated

b. a de-oxygenated alpha subunit in a tetramer where the other three subunits are oxygenated

c. a de-oxygenated beta subunit in a tetramer where the other three subunits are also de-oxygenated

d. a de-oxygenated alpha subunit in a tetramer where two other subunits are oxygenated

You have discovered a single cellular eukaryotic organism that has very little vesicle trafficking. You suspect that this may be due to the relatively few formed microtubules that are observed in this species. Upon close examination, you find the microtubules that are present are unusually stable. When looking at an amino acid comparison with human alpha and beta tubulin, you notice that the alpha tubulin is identical, but the beta tubulin is different in the region responsible for GTP hydrolysis. You isolated the heterodimer subunits from this new species and put them in a cell free system in a GTP bound form of the heterodimer along with centrosome nucleation sites. How would the dynamics be different from normal heterodimer subunits in the same situation?

a) The new species’ microtubules would treadmill at a maximum concentration of heterodimers

b)The new species’ microtubules would be less susceptible to catastrophe

c)The new species’ microtubules would loose more from the (-) end than (+) end

d)The new species’ microtubules would grow to a longer length than normal cellular microtubules
