Biology Flashcards
Velocity of blood flow is slower in capillaries than arteries
this is b/c of the increase of cross sectional area in capillaries when compared to area of arteries
Can genes from somatic cells & Cancer cells be inherited?
NO
Chaperone proteins
facilitates proper protein folding and inhibits the formation of nonfunctional protein aggregates
adhesion proteins
bind with other cells or the extracelluular matrix
clathrin
formation of vesicles for intracell trafficking, not protein folding
enzyme
catalyst of specific biochem rxns
signal sequence
mature RNA contain this; in 5’ region of mRNA and will signal ribosome that translation needs to be continued in the RER
nuclear localization signal
sequence that tags the protein for it to be transported into the nucleus
endomembrane system
portion of a cell that is in charge of modifying proteins that will be secreted
Diabetes causes….
an increase in appetite
