Play an AI-generated podcast conversation about this lesson

What is the function of Tyrosine Kinase Receptors (RTK) in a dimeric fashion?

The receptors function separately, with no interaction between them

They require three receptors to initiate a signal when binding to the ligand

They function in pairs, with a signal binding to one receptor and bringing the other receptor to form a complex (correct)

They function independently, each receptor initiating its own signal when bound to a ligand

What is the characteristic of receptors with intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity?

They have their own intrinsic kinase activity when bound to a ligand (correct)

They lack the ability to recruit a tyrosine kinase when bound to a ligand

Their activity does not change when bound to a ligand

They require multiple receptors to activate tyrosine kinase activity

What is the structure of the insulin receptor, which is the most studied receptor with intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity?

Monomeric structure with only one α and one β chain

Dimeric structure with 2 α and 2 β chains held together by hydrogen bonds

Homo-tetrameric structure with 2 α and 2 β chains held together by S-S bonds

Hetero-tetrameric structure with 2 α and 2 β chains held together by disulfide bonds (correct)
