Lecture 8 Flashcards
group of ribosomes bound to an mRNA at a particular time
polysome
termination codons that end protein synthesis they are:
UAG,
UAA,
UGA
*Protein synthesis (translation of mRNA) steps:
Initiation, Elongation, and termination
when regulation of protein synthesis occurs at the level of initiation.
Global regulation
when regulation of specific proteins takes place in the level of elongation and termination
Specific regulation
co-and post translational processes:
1.Protein folding.
2. Protein Modifications.
3.Cleavage of precursor proteins.
4. Protein Degradation
There are a group of proteins help in protein folding
molecular chaperones
the process by which a carbohydrate is
covalently attached to a target macromolecule, typically proteins
and lipids
Glycosylation
types of proteolytic cleavages are common:
1.Cleavage of the initiator methionine.
2.Cleavage of the signal sequence.
3.Cleavage of large precursor proteins.
pathway for protein degradation and they are:
Lysosomal Pathway.
Ubiquitin-proteasome Pathway
