Chapter 1 Flashcards
Hawaiian Punch
Is the extracellular environment and is the same as the insides of
-vesicles
-Golgi
-ER
-Endosome
-Lysosome
Mitochondrial Targeting Sequence
Presequence
-rich in basic residues
-no acidic (negative)
-amphipathic alpha-helices
Should be around 50 residues and span both OM and IM
Necessary and Sufficient
Deleting of gene results to loss of function and inserting the gene to something that does not naturally have it will result to have that function
TOM Complexes
TOM20, TOM22, TOM70
TOM20
Is for the pre-sequence of peptide
-has a hydrophobic for amphipathic sequences
Positive side of helix is for specificity
Membrane potential in IM of Mito
Membrane potential for inner membrane of mitochondria is necessary to pull pre-sequence into the inner membrane
Without it, the protein would then be clogged into TOM
TIM23
Inner membrane translocon that is sealed to prevent protons from leaking
Hsp70
Heat-shock proteins
-N-terminal ATPase domain
-C-terminal peptide binding that recognize all unfolded proteins
-a molecular chaperone
-drives translocation with ATP hydrolysis with entropic pulling (horse tail)
PAM18
J protein of Hsp70
-recruits and stimulates mtHsp70
-stimulates by ATP hydrolysis
Crosslinking
uses
-identify partners of known protein
-protein neighbors
-stable conjugate between 2 proteins
Amino Acids for crosslinking
Lysine - alpha-amino group
Cysteine- sulfhydryl (thiol) group
Photoactivatable Crosslinkers
UV light generate formation of covalent bonds
Pros: nonselective
Cons: low efficiency and work in dark
