What is the role of cAMP in signal transduction?

Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) is a nucleotide that acts as a key second messenger in numerous signal transduction pathways. cAMP regulates various cellular functions, including cell growth and differentiation, gene transcription and protein expression.

What is the role of cAMP in the signal transduction pathway activated by epinephrine?

The G protein activates an enzyme called adenylyl cyclase. When activated, adenylyl cyclase converts a large number of ATP molecules into signaling molecules, called cyclic AMP (cAMP). Because cAMP carries the message of the first messenger (epinephrine) into the cell, cAMP is referred to as a second messenger.

How would a mutation in the receptor affect the signal transduction pathway?

For instance, if the gene that creates the receptor protein gets mutated, it could disrupt the entire signal transduction pathway. By contrast, if an enzyme at the end of the signal cascade is subject to mutation, this may result in less of a change to the overall cellular response.

Which of the following would be the final step in a signal transduction pathway?

Signal transduction is usually a pathway of several steps. Each relay molecule in the signal transduction pathway changes the next molecule in the pathway. 3. Response: Finally, the signal triggers a specific cellular response.
