Although MAP kinase is often activated in multicellular animals by RTKs or cytokine receptors, signaling from other receptors can activate MAP kinase in other eukaryotic cells. we consider the mating pathway in the yeast S. cerevisiae, a well-studied example of a MAP kinase cascade linked to G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs). Which of the following statement is incorrect?

According to the Switching mechanism, monomeric G proteins exist in two states. Match the following states (Column I) with correct mechanism (Column II).

Column I	Column II
A. “ON” state	i. switch I and switch II, are bound to the terminal γ phosphate of GTP through interactions with the backbone amide groups of conserved threonine and glycine residues.
B. “OFF” state	ii. GTPase-activating proteins
	iii. guanine nucleotide exchange factor
	iv. Due to the removal of the γ phosphate by GTPase-catalyzed hydrolysis causes switch I and switch II to relax into a different conformation

In the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum, cAMP acts as an extracellular signalling molecule and binds to and signals via a G protein–coupled receptor; it is not a second messenger. Amoeba cells were transfected with genes encoding two fusion proteins: a Gα fused to cyan fluorescent protein (CFP), and a Gβ fused to yellow fluorescent protein (YFP). CFP normally fluoresces 490-nm light; YFP, 527-nm light. In which conditions fluorescence

energy transfer occur from CFP to YFP?
