Most of the growth factors bind to
A) G protein coupled receptors
B) receptor tyrosine kinases
C) receptor threonine kinases
D) ion channel receptors

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Growth factors typically bind to and activate receptor tyrosine kinases on the cell surface, leading to downstream signaling pathways that promote cell growth, differentiation, and survival. While some growth factors may also activate other types of receptors, such as G protein-coupled receptors, these are not the primary targets for most growth factors. Receptor threonine kinases and ion channel receptors are also not typically involved in growth factor signaling pathways.
