Answer:
The protein phosphatase-1 dephosphorylates the residues of serine, which are phosphorylated by the protein kinase A. The cyclic-AMP inducible genes are stimulated by CREB that is phosphorylated by protein kinase A. Thus, overexpression of protein phosphatase 1 would prevent their induction.
Although, protein phosphatase 1 would not influence the function of cAMP-gated ligand channels, as these channels are opened directly by binding of cAMP rather than by protein phosphorylation.
Answer:
Kinases would stop working too.
Explanation:
Cells work constantly to maintain homeostasis or equilibrium within themselves. One of the mechanisms used for this purpose is feedback. As mentioned in the question, kinases put phosphates on proteins, and then, phosphatases take them off. Therefore, for phosphatases to work, kinases must be working at the same pace. By inhibiting the phosphatases the number of phosphate-proteins will be too high. This can be perceived by the kinases and they will automatically stop working since there's an excess of product. That process is called feedback.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one,
Answer:
it is located 1000 nucleotides upstream of the gene’s core promoter - true
it is located 1000 nucleotides downstream of the gene’s core promoter- true
it is in the gene’s coding region - False
Explanation:
These enhancers are located 50 or more kilobases from the promoter they controlled upstream from a promoter, downstream from a promoter within an intron, or even downstream from the <u>final exon</u> of a gene which can be thousands of bp away from the gene's core promoter and can also occur thousands of nucleotides away from the gene's core promoter needing the activity of a DNA -bending protein that binds to the enhancer changing the shape of the DNA and allow interactions between the activators and transcription factors.
