The binding of either glucagon or epinephrine (adrenaline) to their respective receptors on liver cells increases intracellular [cAMP]. How can these completely unrelated hormones that bind to distinct GPCRs do this?
A. Both the glucagon and β-adrenergic receptors activate Gαo.
B. Both the glucagon and β-adrenergic receptors activate Gαi.
C. Both the glucagon and β-adrenergic receptors activate Gαs.
D. The glucagon receptor activates Gαs and the β-adrenergic receptor activates Gαo.
E. The glucagon receptor activates Gαo and the β-adrenergic receptor activates Gαs.

Question 1 (1 point) Vasoconstriction occurs when epinephrine (adrenaline) binds to the a-adrenergic receptor on vascular smooth muscle cells. One way to treat high blood pressure is to administer competitive inhibitors that bind to this receptor. The Kd for binding of epinephrine to this receptor is ~UM. Based on the measured affinity (Kd) of the following drugs for the a-adrenergic receptor, which might be good candidates for high blood pressure medication? Drug A: Kd = 0.6 M; Drug B: Kd...

In female mice, both the glucocorticoid (cortisol) receptor and the estrogen receptor are expressed in liver cells (hepatocytes). The control element to which the glucocorticoid receptor binds is a short-strip of DNA that can accommodate the binding of the glucocorticoid receptor dimer. This control element is called a glucocorticoid response element (GRE). It is located1000 bp downstream from the poly-A site for the PEPCK gene. When this gene is activated by cortisol, it helps the hepatocyte to release glucose into...

Question 10-12
10. During the mating process, yeast cells respond to pheromones secreted by other yeast cells. These pheromones bind GPCRs on the surface of the responding cell and lead to the activation of proteins inside the cell. When a wild-type yeast cell senses the pheromone, its physiology changes in preparation for mating: the cell stops growing until it finds a mating partner. If yeast cells do not undergo the appropriate response after sensing a pheromone, they are considered sterile....

Olfaction occurs when volatile compounds bind to specific
odorant receptors. In mammals, each olfactory receptor neuron in
the olfactory nasal epithelium expresses a single type of odorant
receptor. These odorant receptors constitute a large multigene
family (>1000 members) of related proteins. Binding of odorant
induces a signaling cascade that is mediated via a G protein,
Gaolf. Recent studies suggest that there are a small
number of olfactory sensory neurons in the nasal epithelium that
express members of the trace-amine associated...
