Q

How does cyclosporine work?

A

It inhibits calcineurin
Thus, calcineurin can’t de-P NFAT
NFAT nls remain hidden
NFAT can’t go to nucleus to transcribe immune response

Q

Example of regulating TF by amount

A

B-catenin
normally ubiquitinated sent to proteosome
wnt interrupts GSK3 APC/Axin - don’t P B-catenin
build-up
go transcribe

Q

p53 regulated via?

A

the amount

MDM2 targets for destruction and masks activation domain

22
Q

Example of regulation via DNA binding

A

ID proteins and HLH - prevent DNA binding b/c lack basic domain

23
Q

Example of regulation via P

A

CREB - normally bound to DNA but inactive - P results in activation and recruitment of CBP (HAT) –> RNA Pol II

24
Q

4E-BP

A

Sequester EIF4E and block fx

25
Q

mTOR

A

Phosphorylates 4E-BP -
preventing 4E binding EIF4E
Enabling translation

26
Q

Rapamycin

A

Dephosphrylates 4EBP
Enabling 4EBP binding EIF4E
Disabling translation

27
Q

Interferon

A

phosphorylates EIF2-alpha

preventing initiation of translation

28
Q

EIF2-alpha necessary for

A

inition of translation via tRNA met ribosome binding

29
Q

Transferrin

A

Binds iron

30
Q

Transferrin Receptor

A

Binds Transferrin/Fe and brings into cell

31
Q

Transferritin

A

Intracellular Fe holding tank

32
Q

Iron response element

A

Loop in mRNAs that can bind Iron response element Binding proteins

33
Q

Iron response element binding proteins

A

bind iron and then bind IRE regulating translation

34
Q

When iron is high what happens with transferritin?

A

When Iron is high, the IRE-BP cannot bind to the IRE of the mRNA for transferritin and we get increase translation - we need more storage

35
Q

When iron is high what happens with transferrin receptor?

A

When iron is high, the IRE-BP doe not bind to the IRE of mRNA for transferrin receptor and will decrease translation/ degrade mRNA - we need less

36
Q

Gleevac

A

Bcr-abl tyrosine kinase inhibitor (CML)

37
Q

Bortezomib

A

Proteosome inhibitor (Multiple myeloma)

38
Q

Crixivan

A

HIV protease inhibitor

39
Q

Captopril

A

ACE inibitor

40
Q

A

proline and glycine

41
Q

err in posttranslational hydroxylation of proline?

A

Scurvy (collagen)

42
Q

err in Gly–>Cys mutation in collagen?

A

Osteogenesis imperfecta

43
Q

HSP40/70

A

Prevent hydrophobic aggregation

44
Q

Chaperonin

A

GroES + 2x GroEL –> barrel that helps fold proteins

45
Q

protein disulfide isomerase

A

rearrange to correct s-s bonds

46
Q

peptide prolyl isomerase

A

increase rate of conversion or proline to cis

47
Q

Cyclosporin

A

Prevents calcinuerin from dephosphorylating NFAT - can’t move into nucleus to transcribe immune response
