Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas. When insulin binds to its receptor, which of the following will occur?
A) A G-protein will change its conformation to the "on" position thereby allowing the effector to be activated.
B) The G-protein will become active when GTP is replaced by GDP.
C) A receptor tyrosine kinase will change its conformation (i.e. form a dimer) thereby allowing phosphorylation to occur.
D) A receptor tyrosine kinase will dissociate into two monomers thereby allowing phosphorylation to occur.
