Chapter 12, Problem 11P
Summary Introduction

To compare: The G protein-Gs that acts in transducing signal from β-adrenergic receptors and G protein Ras

Introduction: G protein is named due to their binding activity with guanine nucleotide such as GDP and GTP. They are made of three different subunits and are called heterotrimers which is associated with inner surface of plasma membrane and G protein-coupled receptors.

Summary Introduction

To explain: The properties shared by G proteins-Gs and Ras protein.

Introduction: The G proteins are made of three different subunits and are called heterotrimers which is associated with inner surface of plasma membrane and G protein-coupled receptors. It is named so due to their binding activity with guanine nucleotide such as GDP and GTP.

Summary Introduction

To explain: The difference between Gs protein and Ras protein.

Introduction: G protein consists of three subunits such as Gα, Gβ and Gγ. Gα carries a binding site for nucleotide. Gβ and Gγ are associated with inner surface of plasma membrane and G protein-coupled receptors. They are named as G protein due to their binding with guanine nucleotide such as GDP and GTP.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The functional difference between Gs and Gi.

Introduction: G protein is named due to their binding activity with guanine nucleotide such as GDP and GTP. They are made of three different subunits and are called heterotrimers which is associated with inner surface of plasma membrane and G protein-coupled receptors.

Biochemistry What is the process of "transamination" in either the muscles or the liver, that involves keto acid or glutamic acid? Please explain how the steps work. Thank you!
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you When carbamyl phosphate is joined to L-ornathine, where does the energy for the reaction come from?
