Insulin and other growth factors stimulate a pathway involving a protein kinase mTOR, which in its turn augments protein synthesis. mTOR essentially modifies protein(s) which in their unmodified form act as inhibitors of protein synthesis. The following protein is NOT possible candidate:

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
Cell cycle is regulated by master regulators (cyclin and CDKs). In vertebrates, G1 CDK activity rises during G1 and is stimulated by the presence of growth factors. When signaling from growth factors is sustained, the resulting cyclin D–CDK4/6 complexes begin phosphorylating Rb, releasing some E2F, which stimulates transcription of the genes encoding cyclin E, CDK2, and E2F itself. In a particular cell type there is a mutation in Rb such that it cannot be phosphorylated. What will be the correct expression pattern of cyclin E in these cells after mitotic stimulation?

As rat pups mature, the growth of their snouts and tails outpaces growth of the rest of their bodies, producing the appearance of sexually mature males. It is found that sexually mature female rats prefer to mate with mutant, sexually mature males that possess snouts and tails with juvenile proportions. Which of the following terms is (are) appropriately applied to this situation?
