Q

What do start transfer sequences allow?

A

Non-N-terminal portions of the protein to iniate translocation

23
Q

Combination of start and stop sequences allow?

A

production of multi pass transmembrane proteins as well as transmembrane proteins with C rather then N terminus to the ER lumenal side

24
Q

What is N-linked glycosylation?

A

During translocation a block of 14 carbohydrates may be covalenty attached to the nitrogen on a asparagin residue within the recognition sequence Asn-X-Ser/Thr

Most proteins made at the RER are N-glycosylation in a co-translational manner by Oligosaccharyltransferase( a transmembrane protein complex of the RER)

25
Q

The N-linked carbohydrates are only added in the —-and modified in the —-

A

ER
Er and Golgi

26
Q

p450 enzymes are associated with

A

SER membranes

27
Q

p450 can?

A

oxidize drugs, this increases their solubility and may introduce OH groups which are sites for conjugation

28
Q

What is conjugation?

A

is the process by which fairly large soluble molecules are covalently attached to OH groups which allows drugs to be removed by kidneys or intestines

29
Q

What is the Golgi important for?

A

protein modification and sorting

30
Q

The golgi is the site for?

A

O-linked glycosylation, which makes up about 10% of all protein glycosylation

31
Q

What are the three components of the Golgi?

A

cis Golgi network
medial cisternae
tran Golgi network

proteins have to move through this network in endosomes
!> stationary cisternae model-vesiclules moving
2.cisternal maturation model-Sack matures into trans

Anterograde movement is ER-Golgi-plasma membrane
Retrograde Vesicleus-golgi-ER

32
Q

The three compartments of the Golgi carry out ——functions thus requiring a —-of enzymes

A

distinctive
specific set
These enzymes must have either a system for retention or retrieval

33
Q

____secretion occurs continuously

A

constitutive

34
Q

—-secretion requires specific signal

A

regulated

35
Q

Acid hydroplanes are modified by? This allows them to? What happens when the pH drops? What happens when this fails?

A

A mannose-6-phosphate(M6P) moiety in the golgi. This allows the, top binds to a M6P receptor which they are then packed into vesicles going to the lysosomes. As the pH drops, the cargo and receptor separate, with the receptor returning to the Golgi and the cargo going on to the lysosome. Failure leads to one or more hydrolases in the lysosomes, which mean cellular components are not broken down correctly. These diseases are collectively called as lysosomal storage diseases.

36
Q

Secretion via vesicles is called?

A

ecocytosis

37
Q

____can physically move vesicles around the cell. This requires any inputs of energy.

A

Motor proteins

38
Q

What are the three types are motor proteins?

A

Kinesins
dyneins
myosins

39
Q

____move towards the plus end of the mircotubules

A

kinesins

40
Q

____move towards the minus end of the mircotubules

A

dyneins

41
Q

___move along microfilaments

A

myosins

42
Q

Endocytosis

A

taking components from outside the cell in vesicles

43
Q

___is similar to endocytosis but it involves cytoskeletal rearrangements and it can be used to bring very large macromolecules even other cells into the cell

A

phagocytosis

44
Q

Selection of endocytosis can be______ or ______

A

non-selective-pinocytosis
selective-receptor-mediated

utilizes Sar1 for initiation

51
Q

Initiation of coat formation if mediated by

A

monomeric GTPases

52
Q

Pinching off the vesicle requires a —

A

second monomeric GTPases called dynamin

53
Q

Vesicular targeting requires a third monomeric GTPas called

A

Rab

54
Q

SNARE complexes?

A

mediate membrane fusion of vesicles and target membranes.

Generally there is a single helix on a vesicle and 3 on the target membrane. These spontaneously fold into a four helical bubble when they are close. The energy released from formation is used to drive membrane fusion, which is an unfavourable process
