Which of the following results would most likely be an immediate result of a growth factor binding to its receptor?
A) protein kinase activity
B) adenylyl cyclase activity
C) cAMP activity
D) phosphorylase activity

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Binding of growth factor to its receptor will most likely activate protein kinase activity, leading to downstream signaling events. Adenylyl cyclase activity and cAMP activity are more commonly associated with activation of G protein-coupled receptors. Phosphorylase activity is associated with the breakdown of glycogen and is not directly related to growth factor signaling.
