Q

How do vesicles reverse direction?

A

Multiple motor proteins can be attached at once (Kinesin + Dynein). Reversals can happen when some detach or others take over

Q

RTK

A
  • signaling molecule attaches to signaling binding site
  • this causes dimer formation from monomers
  • activated tyrosine regions allow phosphorylation of dimer
  • phosphate will be taken from ATP
  • relay proteins attach to phosphorylated Tyr to begin signal transduction pathway

Receptor (G protein)
transduction
secondary messenger (cAMP)
target cells
