Q

what does the oxidative phosphorylation generating electrochemical proton gradient do?

A

helps pull proteins across inner membrane (since N terminal is positive it is attracted negative charge)

also helps with ATP synthesis –> important for stripping chaperone proteins in cytosol

Q

what happens to proteins with a second hydrophobic sequence?

A

they are inserted released laterally in the intermembrane space after TIM23 recognizes hydrophobic sequence and N terminal sequence is cleaved (hydrophobic anchor in inner membrane)

or

pass through TIM23 and grabbed by OXA –> protein ends up anchored in inner membrane (like other one)

or or

the hydrophobic sequence could also be cleaved and the protein released as a true inner membrane protein

Q

what is different between mitochondrial transport and chloroplast transport?

A

TOC and TIC instead of TOM and TIM

no electrochemical gradient at inner membrane (GTP and ATP used)

has extra membrane – > thylakoid space

16
Q

how can we isolate ER

A

centrifugation
then sediment through gradient of sucrose

  • smooth sediments in low sucrose concentration
  • rough in high
17
Q

does ER have more co-translational or post-translational translocation?

A

co-translational

18
Q

what determines co-translational vs post-translational translocation?

A

N terminal sequence

19
Q

what is the SRP? what is its receptor?

A

signal recognition particle

binds to signal-sequence binding pocket and ribosome which pauses translation

receptor = SRP receptor
- recognizes SRP-protein complex and binds

20
Q

what are the two gates of the translocator protein in the ER used for?

A

pore for hydrophillic protein portions (regular part)

opens laterally for hydrophobic parts (stop sequence)

21
Q

is specificity of signal important for translocator protein in ER?

A

no it just recognizes hydrophobic sequences

22
Q

what kind of transport is Get1-Get2 receptor involved with?

A

post-translational translocation in the ER

for integration of C tail-anchored proteins

23
Q

what does Get3 do?

A

brings C tail-anchored proteins to Get1-Get2 receptor which binds to C terminal sequence
Get3 then hydrolyzes ATP and releases protein

24
Q

why are glycosylated proteins considered N-linked?

A

because they are glycosylated on target asparagine (N) amino side chains

25
Q

how does glycosylation play a role in protein folding?

A
  • calnexin binds to terminal glucose on oligosaccharides of incompletely folded proteins
  • glucosidase removes the terminal glucose, releasing protein from calnexin
    glucosyl transferase checks to see if protein is properly folded
  • if it is, protein is free, if not, glucosyl transferase adds another glucose, renewing protein’s affinity for calnexin
26
Q

what is the difference between calnexin and calreticulin

A

calreticulin is soluble
calnexin is membrane bound

both bind improperly folded proteins so glucosidase can cleave the terminal glucose

27
Q

when does manose get cleaved?

A

after a certain number of cycles, manose will be cleaved by glucosidase and then the protein will be degraded via the retrotranslocation pathway

28
Q

what does glucosidase do?

A

cleaves the terminal glucose from improperly folded proteins in ER

29
Q

what does glucosyl transferase do?

A

checks to see if proteins are properly folded. will add glucose to proteins that are improperly folded to renew their affinity for calnexin or calreticulin

30
Q

how does the retrotranslocation pathway work?

A

chaperones keep misfolded proteins from becoming more folded

lectin recognizes proteins with cleaved manose and binds as well as disulfide isomerase

misfolded proteins are targeted to a translocator complex in the ER membrane and then sent to cytosol

they are ubiquitylated and de-glycosylated by glycanase then degraded in proteasomes

31
Q

what does lectin do?

A

recognizes proteins with cleaved manose as part of the retrotranslocation pathway

32
Q

what does disulfide isomerase do in the retrotranslocation pathway

A

breaks down secondary structures of proteins

33
Q

what does glycanase do in the retrotranslocation pathway?

A

deglycosylates proteins

34
Q

which ER pathway do viruses modify to degrade proteins that would usually fight the virus

A

retrotranslocation pathway

35
Q

what is the unfolded protein response?

A

misfolded proteins activate a transmembrane kinase

things happen and eventually transcription regulator is created and enters the nucleus through NPC to activate genes that encode ER chaps

the chaps are then made in ER to help with folding
