Q

What are the steps of creating lysosomes (5)?

A

Enzymes go through sec path (targeted bc n term hypho leader seq)

Thru ER via cotranslation (translocon)

In cis golgi, man 6 phosphate attached

M6P attaches to receptor in cis golgi, buds off in clathrin coated vesicle

fuses w/s endosome, change in pH releases M6P

Hemi desmosomes (cell-matrix)
Desmosomes (cell-cell)
Both use keratin

166
Q

How many times do G coupled protein receptors span the membrane

A

7

167
Q

What is the G protein made of

A

G(alpha+beta+gamma) subunits

168
Q

This receptor is also a GEF

A

G coupled protein receptor

169
Q

What does GRK stand for

A

G coupled protein receptor kinase

170
Q

What happens when Galpha-GTP binds the effector

A

ATP converted into cAMP

171
Q

What prevents cAMP production due to Galpha-GTP at receptor

A

GRK

172
Q

How does GRK operate

A

Phosphorylates GCPR, arrestin comes in

173
Q

What can Arrestin trigger

A

calthrin coated vesicle formation to prevent further cAMP production

174
Q

What are 5 2nd messengers and what do they activate

A
cAMP - ProkinA
cGMP - Prokin G
IP3 - Ca
Calcium - Prokin C
Diacylglycerol - Prokin C
175
Q

How is the headgroup of PI cleaved?

A

Galpha-GTP stims phoslipC to cleave headgroup freeing IP3

176
Q

What happens to the cleaved IP3 after released from PI

A

Recognized by smooth ER IP3 recep, releases Ca+ which stims prokinC

177
Q

What happens when Ca+ is depleted from the cell

A

STIM in membrane aggragates, opening Orai1 Ca+ channels

178
Q

What do Recp Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) recognize

A

Growth factors

179
Q

What happens when RTK recognize a ligand

A

Dimerize, autotransphophorylate

180
Q

What does Grb2 stand for

A

Growth factor receptor binding protein

181
Q

What does Grb2 do?

A

Binds to kinase using SH2 domain

182
Q

What binds to Grb2

A

Sos

183
Q

What is Sos an example of

A

GEF

184
Q

What does GAP stand for

A

GTPase Activating Protein

185
Q

What starts the RAS cycle

A

Sos tickles to make RAS-GTP

186
Q

What does RAS-GTP do?

A

Activates RAF via phosphorylation

187
Q

What prevents RAS from cycling again?

A

GDP Dissociation Inhibitor

188
Q

What does RAF(P) activate

A

MEK(P)

189
Q

What does MEK(P) activate

A

ERK(P)

190
Q

What does ERK(P) activate)

A

TF(P)

191
Q

What phosphotase ends the MAP kinase pathway and how?

A

MKP1 cuts P from ERK(P)

192
Q

What gives specificity to APC (anaphase promoting complex)

A

Acc. Proteins

193
Q

What does APC-Cdc20 do

A

Destroys securin which was preventing separase from cleaving cohesin

194
Q

What does APC-Cdh1 do

A

changes shape of mitotic cyclins

195
Q

When is BRCA1/2 used

A

repairing DNA

196
Q

What happens if BRCA1/2 fail

A

p53 leads cell to death

197
Q

What are protooncogenes

A

Genes that could become cancer
