During enzyme-linked reception, signal molecules bind to two tyrosine kinase receptors. The receptor proteins move closer together in the plasma membrane and pair, forming a(n) ____.
A) gate
B) dimer
C) pathway
D) polypeptide chain
E) protein kinase cascade

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During enzyme-linked reception, when signal molecules bind to tyrosine kinase receptors, the receptor proteins dimerize, meaning they pair up to form a dimer. This is a crucial step in the signal transduction pathway that leads to cellular responses.
