Match each definition with given terms

1. Large family of structurally related, secreted, dimeric proteins that act as hormones and local mediators to control a wide range of biological functions in all animals.

A. Rho

2. Cell-surface receptor in which the cytoplasmic domain either has enzymatic activity itself or is associated with an intracellular enzyme.

B. TOR pathway

3. A crucial signaling protein in the PI-3-kinase–Akt signaling pathway, so named because it is the target of rapamycin.

C. Enzyme-coupled receptor

4. A kinase that is involved in intracellular signaling pathways activated by cell-surface receptors and that phosphorylates inositol phospholipids at the 3 position of the inositol ring.

D. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase

5. A group of monomeric GTPases that regulate both the actin and microtubule cytoskeletons.

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant

Stomata from intact, attached leaves of Arabidopsis illuminated with blue, red, and green light in a growth chamber, increases and decreases their aperture in response to light.

 

Find the CORRECT statements from the above graph.

i) Stomatal aperture increases when the green light is turned off, and close when the green light is turned on again

ii) Stomata from the phototropin-less double mutant phot1/phot2 respond to blue light and open further when green light is turned off

iii) stomata from the zeaxanthin less mutant npq1 do not respond to blue light and least effect to opening of the stomata further when green light is turned off

iv) the npq1 mutant and phot1/phot2 double mutant response indicate that the green reversal of the blue-light response requires zeaxanthin but also phototropin
