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?
