They contain SH2 domains that bind to phosphorylated tyrosines.

They are phosphorylated by G-proteins in response to ligand binding.

GPCRs have intrinsic kinase activity and autophosphorylate in response
to ligand binding,
GPCRs are found only in animal cells, they have not been found in plant cells.
GPCRs include the receptors in the eye that respond
to light signals.
GPCRs act through the second messenger GTP.
QuestionS
l/lpoint
Some receptors for growth factors activate a protein kinase cascade, with the participation of multiple enzymes
to effecta change in gene expression. Which of the following statements abouta protein kinase cascade are
true?
Multiple steps allow the amplification of the signal.
External signals can lead to changes in gene expression.
Multiple steps leading to kinase activations can result in cells having different responses, depending
on the presence or absence of target proteins.
Multiple steps in an activation mean that abnormal stimulation of a cell response such as growth can
occur with mutations in more than one gene.
All of the above are true.
Question9
l/lpoint
The endogenous GTPase activity of G-proteins serves to:

synthesize GTP as an energy source.
synthesize cGMP as a second messenger.
stimulate the activity of enzymes by producing energy.
hydrolyze GTP returning the G protein to a pre-stimulated level of activity.
Questionl0
O/lpoint
In a fight-or-flight response, epinephrine released by the adrenal glands binds to a membrane receptor on
muscle cells. Which of the following events result from ligand binding?
;r{
G-protein is activated by binding GTP and causing adenylyl cyclase to produce cAMP.
The second messenger, cAMP, activates protein kinase A which inhibits glycogen synthetase blocking
glycogen synthesis.
Protein kinase A activates phosphorylase kinase, which transfers a phosphate that activates glycogen
