Question

Convergence is the term to describe 2 homologous sequences acquiring genetic mutations and becoming less similar over time.

-True

-False

Many types of bacterial processes are controlled ultimately by 2-component regulatory systems. The first step in a 2-component signaling pathway usually involves:

A: A conformational change in the sensor protein which leads it to transfer a phosphate from ATP to itself (autophosphorylate)

B: Degredation of the sensor protein by proteases

C: Binding of cAMP to the sensor protein

D: Release of quorum sensing molecules
