Match the following proteins (Column I) with their function (Column II). Which of the following is correct?

Column I

Column II

a. Profilin

i. binds to the (+) end of an actin filament, thereby inhibiting subunit addition or loss.

 

b. Cofilin

ii. blocks (−) ends, inhibits filament disassembly, to stabilize filaments

c. Thymosin-β4

iii. involved in actin treadmilling, but it binds specifically to F-actin in which the subunits contain ADP

d. Cap Z

iv. binds ADP–G-actin and catalyzes the exchange of ADP for ATP

e. Tropomodulin

v. binds to ATP–G-actin in such a way that it inhibits addition of the actin subunit to either end of the filament.

The following statements are made to describe the biosynthetic pathway of IAA;

a)  IPA pathway involves a deamination reaction to form IPA, followed by a decarboxylation reaction to form indole-3-acetaldehyde (IAld) and then oxidized to IAA by a specific dehydrogenase

b) IAN pathway is similar to the IPA pathway, except that the order of the deamination and decarboxylation reactions is reversed, and different enzymes are involved

c) IAM pathway  involves the two enzymes  tryptophan monooxygenase and IAM hydrolase

d) In the IAN pathway, tryptophan is first converted to indole-3-acetaldoxime and then to indole-3-acetonitrile. The enzyme that converts IAN to IAA is called nitrilase

Which of the following is the correct  statements  of about the biosynthesis of  IAA?
