Q

How doe this GTPase system work with exporting?

A

Nucleus to cytosol. Ran-GTP in nucleus, associates with Exportin. Once in cytosol, Ran-GAP (hydrolysis of GTP by removing Phosphate) releases cargo.

Q

How doe this GTPase system work with importing?

A

Cytosol to nucleus. Ran-GTP releases the cargo, that association initiates recycling of importin back to cytosol. Once importin in cytosol it releases Ran-GDP.

21
Q

What do Hsp70/Hsp40 do?

A

They are cystolic chaperone proteins that keep proteins unfolded.

22
Q

What does TOM do?

A

To get though the OM you must go through TOM.

23
Q

What does SAM do?

A

Inserts Beta Barrel proteins in the OM.

24
Q

What does MIM do?

A

Inserts alpha helical proteins in the OM.

25
Q

Where are the sorting signals that SAM inserts located? Does SAM cleave the signal once inserted?

A

Internal. No

26
Q

Where are the sorting signals that MIM inserts located? Does MIM cleave the signal once inserted?

A

N terminal. No

27
Q

Which does a protein need to go through if it needs to get through multiple times?

A

MIM

28
Q

What complexes are found in the IMS?

A

MIA and small TIM proteins.

29
Q

What is MIA?

A

Performs own function. Redox reactions important for mitochondria. Sorting seq will be very cysteine rich

30
Q

What are small TIM proteins?

A

chaperones in the IMS

31
Q

What complexes are in the IM?

A

TIM 23, TIM 22, OXA

32
Q

What does TIM 23 do?

A

Inserts the most proteins into the IM but cutting off their sorting sequence.

33
Q

What does TIM 22 do?

A

Inserts some proteins into the IM. Inserts TIM 23. Doesnt remove sorting seq.

34
Q

What does OXA do?

A

Exports from matrix to the inner membrane

35
Q

What complexes are in the Matrix?

A

PAM.

36
Q

What does PAM do?

A

Helps TIM 23 get proteins into the matrix.

37
Q

what do we need to get into the matrix?

A

ATP

38
Q

What is the energy used for that allows protein to get into the matrix?

A

On Hsp70, pulls the proteins in the matrix.

39
Q

Pertaining to cytosol —> ER, what are the two options when inserting into the ER?

A

Co-translational insertion and post translational insertion

40
Q

Where does co translational insertion happen?

A

On R ER.

41
Q

Where does post translational insertion happen?

A

Happens when translation occurs on free ribosomes.

42
Q

For co translational, what are the cytosolic chaperones?

A

SPR, SR

43
Q

For post translational, what are the cytosolic chaperones?

A

Hsp70/40

44
Q

For co translational what energy is the energy source?

A

GTP

45
Q

For post translational what energy is the energy source?

A

ATP

46
Q

For co translational, where is the energy used?

A

SRP recycling, translational elongation

47
Q

For post translational, where is the energy used?

A

Bip pulling

48
Q

What do both co/post translational have in common?

A

Sorting sequence.

49
Q

What is the structure, where the co/post translational sorting sequence? Does it get cleaved?

A

Located at N. 3 parts: N domain (charged). H domain (hydrophobic). C domain (polar). Gets cleaved

50
Q

How does the SRP work?

A

Find ribosome, has 2 places where itll bind. At the exit channel (where the signal seq is coming out first) located at the N terminus of the protein. Also covers where the elongation factors enter at the ribosome. So there will be pause on the ribosome. Once bound to our SRP receptor, that is when we release everything. Release that signal seq, so that it can enter into the translocator, our ribosome will stay with our translocator and our SRP and its receptor will be recycled to continue the process
