Step 1
Step 1: Receptor Protein The signal transduction pathway begins with the binding of a signal molecule (such as a hormone or neurotransmitter) to a specific receptor protein located on the cell membrane or within the cell. Show more…

Adi S.
Cell signaling involves detection (reception) and transduction, which elicits a cellular response. Which is not true of transduction? May involve many steps (pathway) or only one step. Each pathway can lead to only one response. May be propagated by proteins or secondary messengers. May amplify the signal. Begins when a receptor is activated by a messenger molecule and changes conformation.

The following is a list of steps that take place during signal transduction. Place the steps in the proper order 1. Transcription factors turn on genes 2. Growth factor binds to cell-surface receptor 3. 2nd messenger molecule is activated 4. Growth factor receptor becomes activated 5. Cell cycle proteins are synthesized
