Q

coated pits

A

clathrin mediated endocytosis

  • cargo receptors located here
  • adaptin associates
  • coated vesicles form and become quickly uncoated after formation

Q

exosomes & vesicles

A
  • secretory products are released into the extracellular environment
  • discard unneeded membrane proteins
  • some tumors release exosomes and may represent a biomarker
17
Q

ribosomes

A

basophillic
involved in protein synthesis
occur as: indv granules, polyribosomes that can be free or attached
NOT found in mature erythrocytes

18
Q

free polyribosomes

A

polysomes
mRNA + ribosomes
protein synthesis for use in the cell
hemoglobin, mitochondrial proteins, peroxisomal proteins

19
Q

rough ER

A

membranous, basophillic
intracellular network of cisternae
continuous with outer membrane of nuclear envelope that is studded with ribosomes

20
Q

polyribosomes involved with Co translational translocation

A

attached to rER, translocation of growing polypeptide chains

  • signal recognition polypeptide
  • signal recognition particle and SRP receptor
  • protein translocator
  • *post translational translocation requires chaperone proteins
21
Q

Post Translational Functions

A
  • synthesis of proteins for secretion, membrane proteins, and lysosomal proteins
  • synthesis of enzymes assosciated with sER
  • modification of proteins like adding carbs to make glycoproteins
22
Q

ER stress

A

accumulation of unfolded misfolded proteins in the ER cisterna

23
Q

Unfolded protein response

A

1- chaperone protein synthesis increases
2-decreased synthesis of proteins
3- misfolded proteins are exported from ER to cytosol and then get degraded by proteasomes
4- caspases are activated which leads to apoptosis

24
Q

alpha antitrypsin deficiency

A

AAT- mutant protein aggregates in ER

25
Q

Targeting signals

A
  • sequences of amino acids in the protein

- direct proteins to their target compartments by binding to receptors that are specific to organelles

26
Q

smooth ER

A

lacks polyribosomes, acidophillic, continuous with rER, cisternae are more tubular

27
Q

functions of smooth ER

A
  • cholesterol homeostasis via HMG coa reductase
  • steroid synthesis
  • phospholipid synthesis
  • glycogenolysis
28
Q

von gierke disease

A

defect of glucose 6 phosphatase or glucose 6 transporter

symptoms: liver enlargement, hypoglycemia, increased lactate

29
Q

ethanol ingestion

A

increases the sER volume and cytochrome p450 enzymes which leads to a greater rate of its detoxification

30
Q

syntheis of phospholipids

A

occurs on cytosolic lipid monolayer

phospholipid translocators catalyze the flip flop of phospholipids from one monolayer to the other

31
Q

malignant hyperthermia

A

causes a rapid rise in body temp and muscle rigidity, mutant ryanodine 1 receptor, excessive movement of Ca from SR into the cytoplasm, SR-Ca pump

32
Q

***FUNCTIONS OF RER

A
  • synthesis of proteins for secretion, insertion into membranes, and lysosomal proteins
  • synthesis of sER enzymes
  • protein modification
  • cells actively involved with protein synthesized are well endowed with rER
33
Q

*****SMOOTH ER functions

A
  • steroid synthesis
  • cholesterol homeostasis
  • synthesis of phospholipids
  • detox of drugs
  • storage, release, uptake calcium ions in striated muscle
