Cancer cells depend on _________________ metabolic pathway.

Cancer cells depend on _________________ metabolic pathway. Correct Answer G-proteins

Arrestins are a small group of proteins that bind to the G-protein coupled receptors. To bind to these receptors, the arrestins compete with heterotrimeric G-proteins. In the process of desensitization, arrestin binding prevents further activation of the G-proteins.

Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer :

Statements : In Japan, the incidence of stomach cancer is very high, while that of bowel cancer is very low. But Japanese immigrate to Hawaii, this is reversed - the rate of bowel cancer increases but the rate of stomach cancer is reduced in the next generation.
