Which process is not a feature of ?-adrenergic receptors?
A Phosphorylation
B Cause the binding of Ca2+ to calmodulin
C activate protein kinase A
D Interaction with beta-arrestin
Homework Answers
Answer: Option B is correct.
Explanation:
Binding of a ligand to adrenergic receptor cause activation of the receptor by phosphorylation. This further leads to the activation of adenylate cyclase and the production of cAMP.
Elevated cAMP levels activate PKA which phosphorylates its downstream targets to mediate the effects of the signaling.
Activated PKA also phosphorylates arrestins which go and bind to the receptor to terminate the signal.
There is no role of ca+2 in this signaling cascade.

Place in the right order the sequence of biochemical events between the release of epinephrine by the adrenal glands and the breakdown of glycogen in the liver. (1) Epinephrine is released by the adrenal glands. ( ) Activated beta-adrenergic receptors cause GTP for GDP exchange in the alpha subunits of Gs G proteins ( ) The activated catalytic subunits of PKA phosphorylate the inactive phosphorylase kinase b, activating it. ( ) Epinephrine travels in the bloodstream ( ) Two cAMP...

Arrange in proper order the events of the signal-transduction cascade for glycogen degradation in muscle. Muscle contraction begins. Phosphorolysis of glycogen yields glucose l-phosphate. Answer Bank Phosphorylase kinase is phosphorylated on its and a subunits. Intracellular CAMP levels increase, which activates protein kinase A. Epinephrine is released and binds to muscle ß-adrenergic receptors. The stimulatory G, protein dissociates and activates adenylate cyclase. Phosphorylase kinase is partly activated by binding Ca2+ Glycogen phosphorylase b is converted to glycogen phosphorylase a.

Phosphorylation-dependent binding of F-box protein B-TrCP containing E3 ubiquitin ligase to human WEE1A. S123 is phosphorylated by a CDK and the phosphorylation primes CK2 to phosphorylate S121 resulting in creation of a B-TCP phosphodegron (EEGFGpS121) that is responsible for the instability of WEE1A during interphase. At the onset of M-phase, when activated Plk1 accumulates, Plk1 binds to WEE1A to the PBD binding motif surrounding PS123 (SpSP) via its PBD and phosphorylates S53 resulting in generation of the second phosphodegron (DpSAFQE)....
