Insulin signalling results in which of the following? Autophosphorylation of the G protein-coupled receptor which triggers a signalling cascade that stimulates the movement of GLUT4 towards the plasma membrane. Insulin signalling does not involve G proteins A decrease in the amount of fructose-6-phosphate converted to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate by L-phosphofructokinase-1. It activates a protein phosphatase which dephosphorylates glycogen phosphorylase to enhances the release of glucose from glycogen.

Solution

Insulin signaling results in the autophosphorylation of the insulin receptor, not a G protein-coupled receptor. This triggers a signaling cascade that stimulates the movement of GLUT4 towards the plasma membrane. This process allows cells, particularly muscle and fat cells, to take up glucose from the bloodstream.

The other options are incorrect:

  • Insulin signaling does not decrease the amount of fructose-6-phosphate converted to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate by L-phosphofructokinase-1. Instead, insulin signaling promotes the conversion of glucose into glycogen for storage.

  • Insulin signaling does not activate a protein phosphatase that dephosphorylates glycogen phosphorylase to enhance the release of glucose from glycogen. Instead, insulin signaling promotes the storage of glucose as glycogen. When insulin levels are low, glycogen phosphorylase is activated to break down glycogen and release glucose into the bloodstream.
