The correct answer is signal transduction.

Signal transduction also called cell signaling refers to the conduction of molecular signals from the external of the cell to its internal. The signals perceived by the cells must be conducted efficiently into the cell to make sure an effective response. This step is stimulated by cell-surface receptors.

There are three phases in the procedure of communication or cell signaling, that is, reception, transduction, and response.

Rb is an important protein for controlling cell proliferation by blocking entry into S phase. How does it exert its effect?
amid [387]

Answer:

The main function of the RB protein is to inhibit the transition from the G1 to S phase. Its activity depends on its phosphorylation state: if RB is not phosphorylated (active state), it is bound to the transcription factor E2F, preventing its translocation to the nucleus and the activation of genes necessary for DNA synthesis; and if it is phosphorylated, by cyclin-CDK complexes, E2F is released and cell proliferation occurs.

Explanation:

Retinoblastoma (Rb) was the first tumor suppressor described and, as we know today, mutations in its structure determine a large number of cancers. Structurally, we speak of a large and multifunctional protein; which is organized in different domains. The activity of this protein is regulated, mainly, by phosphorylation at multiple sites described over the years and is involved in control mechanisms of the cell cycle, apoptosis and senescence.
