Some given statements about  the cytokinin signalling pathway;

a)  Cytokinin receptor CRE1 probably functions as a monomer

b) Two other hybrid sensor kinases (AHK2 and AHK3) may also act as cytokinin receptors in Arabidopsis

c) Activated receptor activates their histidine kinase activity, The phosphate is transferred to an aspartate residue (D) on the fused receiver domains

d) The phosphate is then transferred to a conserved histidine present in an AHP protein that transfer the phosphate to an aspartate residue  located within the receiver domain of type-B ARRs only

e) The phosphorylation of the type-B ARR activates the output domain to induce transcription of genes encoding type-A ARRs.

f) The phosphorylated type-A ARRs feed back to negatively regulate cytokinin signaling, thus dampening cytokinin responses

Which of the following are the correct prediction about cytokinin signalling?

Following statements regarding to signaling pathways that control the properties of germline stem cells in drosophila.

A. The signaling molecules—the TGF-β-family proteins Dpp and Gbb as well as Hedgehog (Hh)—are maintain the self -renewal property of germline stem cells by the repression of differentiation factor.

B. Both E-cadherin and Arm are important in maintaining the germline stem-cell niche and regulate the proliferation of stem cells.

#Unit 5. Developmental Biology

all tissue types possess a unique stem cell niche, and despite many differences among the niche architecture of different tissues, several common principles of stem cell regulation can be applied to all environments. These principles involve extracellular mechanisms leading to intracellular changes that regulate stem cell behavior.

Column A

Column B

I. Extracellular regulatory mechanisms

i. Regulation by endocrine, paracrine, or juxtacrine mechanisms

II. Intracellular regulatory mechanisms

ii. Regulation by a network of transcription factors

iii. Epigenetic regulation

iv. Regulation by cell-to-cell and cell-to-matrix adhesions

v. Regulation by cytoplasmic determinants

Match the following regulatory mechanism (column A) with the factors that regulate stem cell behavior (column B).
