A cell responds to two types of signaling molecules. Estrogen is a signaling molecule that binds to an intracellular receptor known as an estrogen receptor (ER), ultimately causing gene expression. Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) is a signaling molecule that binds to a membrane receptor (IGF-1R). Upon binding to IGF-1R, a molecule of IGF-1 activates a signaling pathway that can phosphorylate ER, enhancing the rate of gene expression caused by estrogen alone. The figure shows the integration of the two signaling pathways. Which condition would most likely cause the highest rate of gene expression?
