Consider this pathway: epinephrine $\rightarrow$ G protein-coupled receptor $\rightarrow$ G protein $\rightarrow$ adenylyl cyclase $\rightarrow$ cAMP. Identify the second messenger. a. cAMP c. GTP b. G protein d. adenylyl cyclase
Consider this pathway: epinephrine $\rightarrow$ G protein-coupled receptor $\rightarrow G$ protein $\rightarrow$ adenylyl cyclase $\rightarrow$ cAMP. Identify the second messenger. $$ \begin{array}{ll}{\text { (A) } \operatorname{cAMP}} & {\text { (C) GTP }} \\ {\text { (B) Grotein }} & {\text { (D) adenylyl cyclase }}\end{array} $$
Each adenylyl cyclase molecule produces many cAMP molecules in an example of (a) receptor up-regulation (b) receptor down-regulation (c) signal amplification (d) scaffolding (e) similarities produced by evolution
