Ⅰ. Multiple choices (Find the best answer to each of the following questions; 2 points each, 20 points total)

1. The major determinant of a cell’s ability to response to a specific signalling molecule correctly is:

A-- The appropriate signal transduction pathway in the cell

B-- Whether there is a appropriate receptor to work with or not

C-- Whether the signalling ligand is membrane-bound or diffusible

D-- The specificity of the signalling molecule itself

E-- None of the above is correct.

2. Nitric Oxide:

A-- can be synthesized by iNOS.

B-- mediates the vasodilatory effects.

C-- can be released from the cell via simple diffusion.

D-- can regulate normal maintenance of vascular tone.

E-- All of the above are correct.

3. A major difference between steroid hormone signaling and other receptor-based signaling mechanisms is:

A--Steroid hormone receptors are themselves transcription factors

B--Steroid hormone receptors expressed on the cell surface do not need to dimerize

C--Steroid hormone signal transduction occurs without the need for a signal transducing cascade of protein kinases

D--A and C

E--All of above

4.When signaling ligand binds to a G protein- coupled receptors (GPCRs) and activate a G protein,which subunit of G protein will be isolated and bind with ATP:

A-- the α subunit B-- the β subunit C-- the γ subunit

D-- the ε subunit E-- the σ subunit

5. Which of the following can works as ligand:

A-- cGMP B-- cAMP C-- DAG D-- acetylcholine E-- IP3

6.Cytokinesis refers to:

A-- Kinetochore/chromosome associations

B-- Cytoplasmic division into daughter cells.

C-- Chromosome movements within the cytoplasm of mitotic cells.

D-- Nuclear division

E-- Two cells fuse each other to form a new one.

7. During S-phase, which of the following feature iscorrect?

A-- chromatins begin to coil and condense B-- nucleolus will disappear

C-- nuclear membrane will disappear D-- cell will divide into two cells

E-- DNA replication/synthesis will begin

8.Which of the following features about CDK-cyclin complexiswrong

A-- the concentration of cyclins always keep same as the cell cycles progress

B-- CDK can be activated by cyclin binding

C--the CDK inhibitor proteins will inhibit CDK’s kinase activaty

D-- MPF is actually CDK-cyclin complex

E-- when DNA is damaged, CDK-cyclin complex will be inhibited to arrest cell cycle progress

9. In the cell cycle, progression through the G1 to S transition is controlled by:

A-- Microtubule disassembly. B-- Sequential activity of CDK4/CDK6.

C-- Activity of Cdk2 . D-- Phosphorylation of CDK1.

E-- None of the above.

10. Which of the following concerningDNA replicationis NOT correct?

A-- The parental DNA strands should be separated at the beginning of the replication.

B-- Replication begins at replication origins.

C-- DNA replication is bidirectional synthesis along the chromosome.

D-- Both parental strands are used as templates.

E-- Both new synthesized strands are synthesized continuously.

Ⅱ. Provide brief descriptions of the following technique terms by using several sentences or simple diagrams (5 pointseach,40 points total)
