Which of the following classes of proteins are likely to be encoded by proto-oncogenes?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Proto-oncogenes encode proteins that promote cell growth and division. Growth factor receptors are key receptors that mediate cell proliferation and are commonly encoded by proto-oncogenes. The other choices are not typically encoded by proto-oncogenes. Mismatch repair proteins are involved in DNA repair, apoptosis inducing proteins promote cell death, negative regulators of the cell cycle slow down cell division, and proteins involved in homologous recombination are involved in DNA repair.
