In one taxonomic classification, Archaea, Eukarya, and Bacteria represent the three major domains of life. Eukarya utilize the general transcription factors TBP (TATA-binding protein) and TFIIB in transcription, whereas Bacteria do not. At least one member of Archaea has a protein similar to TBP and a protein similar to TFIIB. Based on this observation, which of the following scenarios is most likely?

Although MAP kinase is often activated in multicellular animals by RTKs or cytokine receptors, signaling from other receptors can activate MAP kinase in other eukaryotic cells. we consider the mating pathway in the yeast S. cerevisiae, a well-studied example of a MAP kinase cascade linked to G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs). Which of the following statement is incorrect?

Which statements are correct regarding protein folding

A. Many molecular chaperones were first described as heat shock proteins (Hsp) because Their rate of synthesis is increased at elevated temperatures

B. The renaturation of a denatured protein in vitro may not entirely mimic the folding of a protein in vivo.

C. Molecular chaperones are essential proteins that bind to only partially folded polypeptide chains.

D. Molecular chaperones function to lift folding polypeptides out of the false minima in their folding funnel.
