In terms of molecular function, what do Ras and myosin have in common?
A) They normally bind to GTP.
B) They couple the hydrolysis of a bound nucleoside triphosphate to protein movements.
C) They switch between two distinct conformations controlled by protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation.
D) They are multisubunit proteins and contain a scaffold subunit.
E) All of the above.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Through fundamentally similar molecular mechanisms, both myosin and Ras use the free energy of nucleoside triphosphate hydrolysis to perform mechanical work that involves significant conformational changes in a switchlike fashion.
