What are the differences between Gs, Gq, Gi, and Go signal transduction?
Homework Answers
Gs, Gq, and Gi are G alpha subunit in the trimeric G protein,
activated Gs stimulates the adenylate cyclase so that the levels of
the cAMP in the cell increases, whereas activated Gi inhibits the
adenylate cyclase so that the levels of cAMP in the cell decreases.
activated Gq activates phospholipase C 
which hydrolyzes the phosphatidylinositol 4,5 bisphosphate to
diacylglycerol and Inositol triphosphate (IP3), IP3 causes the
release of Ca2+.

What are some similarities and differences between the signal transduction systems of the regulation of chemotaxis and quorum sensing? Your explanation should include a discussion of the functions of the components of each system (e.g. What is the sensor? What is the kinase? What is the response protein and what does it do?).

Which of the following is TRUE regarding the signal transduction of smell? (only one response is correct) A. Each glomerulus receives input from a population of olfactory receptor cells responding to a specific odorant molecule B. Chloride moves into the olfactory receptor cell due to its large extracellular concentration C. Odorant molecules binding to Gs receptors leads to activation of adenylyl cyclase -> cAMP -> Ca++ influx D. Unlike other senses, there is no mapping of odors in the nervous...

In the cAMP signal transduction pathway, a protein kinase is activated. What happens next G protein is activated. cAMP is converted to ATP. The protein kinase activates a cellular response. GDP is replaced by GTP. Adenylyl cyclase is activated.
