are synthesized on the smooth ER and inserted into the smooth ER
membrane.
**Where does the breakdown of lipids and toxic molecules happen?
✔- Peroxisome
**GAP ✔- turns switch protein off by promoting GTP hydrolysis
What determines whether a cell will respond to a signaling molecule?
✔- Presence of receptors inside or outside the cell
What is the best signal to send a signal to most cells? ✔- Hormone.
Endocrine signal ✔- Hormone signal. Similar to broadcast on radio.
Long range
Paracrine/ Autofind signal ✔- Nearby cells. Similar to posting a flyer
on a board in a neighborhood
Neuronal signalling ✔- Neurotransmitter delivered @ synapse.

On the cell surface
Where would you expect a steroid to interact with a receptor? ✔-
Inside the nucleus of the cell
Foreign substances (methanol, morphine) exert initial effects by ✔-
interacting with cell-surface receptors and causing signal to be
inappropriately transduced in absence of normal stimulus.
