Which of the following is incorrect about pathways activated by G-protein–coupled receptors?

a. The extracellular signaling molecule is the first messenger.

b. When activated, plasma membrane-bound G protein canswitch on an effector.

c. Second messengers enter the nucleus.

d. ATP converts to cAMP to activate protein kinases.

e. Protein kinases phosphorylate molecules to change cellularactivity.

Identify which of the following statements is a lie? Select one: a. The docking of ligands to the receptor causes receptor-associated proteins to activate another protein to continue the signaling cascade and one example of this event is the binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to the EGF receptor . b. Ligands are important to initiate signal Transduction pathway. c. Ligands detach from the cell surface receptor in order to change the conformation of the receptor and initiate the signaling pathway.
A biochemist is designing a new drug that will mimic the shape and function of a particular intercellular signaling molecule. Therefore she must produce a molecule that will bind to the receptor protein and... A. produce a cellular response by altering the Na+/K+ pump located near the receptor site. B. induce a change in the receptor molecule shape, which will ultimately prevent a cellular response. C.  induce a change in the receptor molecule shape, which will ultimately produce a cellular response. D.  induce a change in the phospholipid bilayer that causes a polar reversal allowing the molecules to be endocytose (engulfed).
Consider this pathway: epinephrine --> receptor -->G-protein---> Adenyl Cyclase---> cAMP --> protein kinase --> transcription factors. Identify the effector.   A. cAMP   B. G protein-coupled receptor   C. epinephrine   D. adenyl cyclase   Which statement is not true about G proteins?     A. They are integral membrane proteins.   B. They are slowly inactivated by their own GTPase activity.   C. They are multisubunit proteins consisting of α, β and γ subunits.     D. They act as transducers for hormones
