Question
What does the hormone-receptor complex (HRC) do?
It translates mRNA into hormonal proteins
It regulates blood sugar by synthesizing glycogen from blood glucose molecules
It binds to the target cell DNA
It binds to the extracellular receptor to begin a chemical cascade
a.It translates mRNA into hormonal proteins
b.It regulates blood sugar by synthesizing glycogen from blood glucose molecules
c.It binds to the target cell DNA
d.It binds to the extracellular receptor to begin a chemical cascade
Explanation / Answer
Answer. C. It binds to the target cell DNA
Some harmones like steroid and thyroid harmones don't have the transmembrane receptors present in outer membrane. These harmones pass through the outer membrane and enters to cytoplasm or nucleous where they bind to the receptor molecules and form hormone-receptor complex and this complex binds to promoter regions of responsive genes and stimulate or sometimes inhibit transcription from those genes.
