A mutation in an integrin protein would likely affect all of the following except
A)communication between the ECM and cytoskeleton.
B)cell-cell adhesion.
C)fibronectin binding.
D)communication between the nucleus and cytoskeleton.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Integrin proteins connect the ECM to cytoskeleton and are involved in cell-cell adhesion and fibronectin binding. However, they do not directly affect communication between the nucleus and cytoskeleton. Therefore, a mutation in an integrin protein would not likely affect communication between the nucleus and cytoskeleton.
