The Figure Below Shows the Oxytocin Signal Transduction Pathway in Uterine

Question 92

Multiple Choice

The figure below shows the oxytocin signal transduction pathway in uterine smooth muscle cells.The abbreviation "CaM" refers to calmodulin, and "MLCK" refers to myosin light chain kinase, an enzyme that phosphorylates the light chains of myosin, stimulating smooth muscle contractions. The figure below shows the oxytocin signal transduction pathway in uterine smooth muscle cells.The abbreviation  CaM  refers to calmodulin, and  MLCK  refers to myosin light chain kinase, an enzyme that phosphorylates the light chains of myosin, stimulating smooth muscle contractions.
