which of these is false about g protein systems

IP3 opens calcium channels

adenlyate cyclase produces cAMP

one messenger and receptor can cause a large response

PIP2 activates protein kinase C

DAG is a second messenger

NONE OF THE ABOVE

Answer #1

Answer :- PIP2 activates protein kinase C

Explanation :- Phospholipase activate PIP2 and convert it into the IP3 and DAG.

• PIP2--> IP3 + DAG

simultaneously IP3 opens calcium channels and increases cytoplasmic calcium level which combine with protein kinase C and initiate biological response while DAG (diacetyl glycerol )  act as secondary messenger that also activates enzyme called Phosphokinase C  that phosphorylate a bunch of enzymes and cause muscle contraction....Thanks
