The tightness with which a chemical attaches to a binding site is termed its affinity for that site, while the effectiveness of the binding chemical is termed its efficacy.

Affinity quantifies how well a medication binds to a receptor (or how well it "fits the lock").

The ability of a drug-bound receptor to induce a response (or "turn the key") is referred to as efficacy.

While antagonists only have affinity for the receptors and no (zero) effectiveness, agonists have both affinities and efficacy for the receptor.

Effectiveness governs what transpires after the medication has been attached to the receptor through affinity.

The affinity (potency) and/or efficacy of different medicines that bind to the same receptor and elicit the same type of response will often vary from one another.

Which of the following is an example of post-transcriptional control of gene expression?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Option (c).

Explanation:

Transcription may be defined as the process of formation of RNA molecule from the template DNA with the help of enzymes and transcription factors. The transcription occurs in 5' to 3' direction.

Post trancriptional modification occurs in the RNA molecule that plays an important role in transcription as well as translation. The introns are removed from the RNA transcript and exons joined together is known as splicing. The alternative splicing occurs in which different protein isoforms are formed by the single exons.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Option-1 and 3

Explanation:

Cadherin is the protein complex present in the cell which is responsible for the sticking together of cell in tissue-like in the skin. The cadherin junctions allow the communication between the cells and the loss of the cadherin could cause cancer.

The cadherin junction is involved in the signalling pathway in the cells like in the Rho GTPase signalling, Ras signalling and many others which shows that they are responsible for the biological processes in an organism.

Thus, Option-1 and 3 are correct.
