B) Binding of signal, release of secondary messenger, alteration of receptor conformation, transcription of gene
C) Binding of signal, activation of target protein by responder, alteration of receptor conformation, release of secondary messenger; transcription of gene
D) Binding of signal, alteration of receptor conformation, alteration of cellular function, release of second messenger

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Signal transduction typically begins with the binding of a signal molecule to a receptor, causing a change in receptor conformation. This is followed by the activation of target proteins, which then leads to an alteration in cellular function.
