The Ras protein functions as a molecular switch that
is turned on by a GEF that causes it to bind GTP. A GAP then turns
the switch off by inducing Ras to hydrolyze its bound GTP to GDP
much more rapidly than in the absence of GAP.
(1) In a cell line that lacks Ras-specific GAP, what
abnormalities in Ras activity, if any, would you expect to find
in the absence of
extracellular signals?
(2) And in their presence (presence of
signal)?

Drosopholia eye development is an example of cell differentiation directed by signal binding to a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK). In this pathway, R7 photoreceptor development requires a receptor (SEV, sevenless), which is activated by binding to a plasma membrane bound signal (BOSS, bride-of-sevenless) displayed on the adjacent R8 cell Receptor activation leads to activation of RAS via two proteins, Drk (down- stream of receptor kinases) and Sos (son-of-sevenless). Activated RAS leads to activation of a phosphorylation cascade that activates the...

Last guy got it wrong - Thank you.
2. You discover a signal transduction pathway that regulates actin polymerization. SigC is the ligand, which binds to and activates a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK). Activation of the RTK leads to the activation of the Ras protein, which then activates the protein kinase PK1 that phosphorylates the RingA protein on S34. When SigC plasma membrane phosphorylated, RingA binds EXTRACELLULAR to the gene regulatory SPACE inactive Ras protein activated Ras protein protein, AP1....

Hagrid has purified a protein from unicom sweat and called UNI-1. He has then doned the Unit gone and inserted in rat zygotes (by microinjection) a recombinant construct containing the Uni-1 coding sequence its entire 5 UTR region, covering both the minimal promoter and a series of cutative regulatory als elements. The mutantrats develop glorious, luminous hair. Hagrid has also discovered that the UNI-1 protein binds very tightly to DNA and hypothesizes it is a transcription factor that regulates proliferation...

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....

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
