where are axonemal tubules located?
cilia and flagella
role of actin binding proteins
polymerization process, elongation of F-actin, stability and organization of the filaments
role of Rho GTPase
involved in the formation of actin structure in cells
T or F: Continuous carbon assimilation in the Calvin cycle is made possible by the regeneration of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate
true
T or F: When a photon is absorbed by a pigment (light-absorbing molecule), such as chlorophyll, the energy of the photon is transferred to an electron to move it from a low to a high energy orbital
true
dual enzymatic functions of rubisco
oxygenase and carboxylase
T or F: Protein glycosylation in the ER starts with the dolichol phosphate
true
T or F: Calnexin and calreticulin helps in the proper folding of glycoproteins synthesize in ER
true
T or F: COPI target vesicles to the Golgi apparatus or ER
true
