Choose the incorrect?
1- COPI vesicles transport proteins from the rough ER to the cis -Golgi; COPII vesicles transport proteins in the reverse s Direction.
2- The KDEL receptor binds more tightly to its ligand ar low pH, and it is thought that the receptor is able to bind KDEL peptides in the cis-Golgi but to release these peptides in the ER because the pH of the Golgi is slightly lower than that of the ER.
3- The KDEL sorting signal is recognized and bound by the KDEL receptor, a transmembrane protein found primarily on small transport vesicles shuttling between the ER and the cis -Golgi and on the cis-Golgi reticulum.

Two-component system regulating response to low Gln,

a) Glutamine dissociates from the sensor domain in the NtrB protein, leading to activation of a histidine kinase transmitter domain in NtrB

b) glutamine binds to a sensor domain of NtrB, causing a conformational change in the protein that inhibits its histidine kinase activity, the regulatory domain of NtrC blocks its DNA-binding domain from binding the glnA enhancers.

c) Activated transmitter domain of NtrB that transfers the γ-phosphate of ATP to a histidine residue (H), this phosphohistidine then transfers the phosphate to an aspartic acid residue (D) in the NtrC protein

d) This causes a conformational change in NtrC that unmasks the NtrC DNA-binding domain so that it can bind to the glnA enhancers
