Cell signalling in cancer - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Lecture notes from Imperial College London, Medical Biosciences, 2nd year, Cancer Biology (CBIO) module A crucial characteristic of every living cell is its ability to communicate with neighbouring cells. This interchange of information between a cell and its environment is what is known as cellular signalling. Specifically, a cell must be able to give precise responses to the environmental signals that it is continually receiving. Cell signalling pathways regulate all the key processes in...

CPPS FINAL EXAM Practice Questions WITH CORRECT ANSWERS Graded A+ | 2023/2024. What is the importance of RBD in Raf activation? - Correct Answer-It is the N-terminal regulatory domain of the Raf protein. The RBD needs to interact with RasGTP to enable activaiton of Raf. Interaction of RBD with RasGTP at the membrane destabilizes Raf interaction with 14-3-3. This allows for PP2A to dephosphorylate Raf phosphoserines (the locks on the inactive state). What is RBD? - Correct Answer-Ras Binding...
