Briefly describe their structure and function. C) Explain the principles of protein folding and significance of urea and Bmercaptoethanol in the experimental procedures addressing this question.arrow_forwardCompare the pathways of purine and pyrimidine nucleotide synthesis with respect to (a) precursors, (b) energy cost, (c) acquisition of the ribose moiety, and (d) number of enzymatic steps.arrow_forward19. What statement is correct regarding the synthesis of actin monomers? a) They would be synthesized on free ribosomes, with a mitochondrial localization sequence that would be recognized by a receptor on the mitochondrial membrane. b) They would be synthesized on free ribosomes, with a nuclear localization sequence that would facilitate its passage through a nuclear pore. c) They would be synthesized on free ribosomes, with no signal sequence. d) They would have a signal sequence on its N terminus that would be recognized by a signal recognition particle (SRP) in the cytoplasm that would dock it on the endoplasmic reticulum. e) They would be synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum, processed in the Golgi and sent to the nucleus in appropriated tagged vesicles.arrow_forward
- Match the following (draw lines connecting the proteins shown on the left).arrow_forwardEach of the ff. involves a disorder in the function of an organelle or other cell structure. Identify the cell organelle or cell structure involved and indicate whether it is likely to be underactive or active. a) A baby is placed on a low phenylalanine diet as his newborn screening results revealed that he inherited phenylketonuria. b) A girl suddenly felt weak and manifested cyanide poisoning symptoms after ingesting undercooked cassava which contains cyanoglycosides. c) A man develops pleiomorphic liposarcoma (rare cancer). The cause of the problem is a hard mass of cells in his right inner thigh that rapidly increased in size in a matter of 2 months. d) A male chef learns that he is infertile because his sperm are non-motile.

(b) The structure of a neuraminidase inhibitor is shown in Figure Q6b. This compound renders the influenza virus unable to escape its host cell and so controls further infection. Using your knowledge of amino acids, draw possible binding interactions that all functional groups in the inhibitor (except C7-OH) could make with the neuraminidase enzyme. + H HN.

- The molecule that condensed with a phosphate group to form the head group of the lipid shown in the first image (picture 6) is choline, an essential component of many cellular molecules. (a) Draw the structure of choline and explain why it needs a transport protein in order to enter cells. (b) Cells must transport choline from outside the cell (where it is relatively rare) to the inside of the cell (where it is relatively abundant). The diagram below represents a cell with a choline transporter (labeled T). Draw a solid arrow through the transporter to show the direction in which choline travels (into or out of the cell). (c) Is T an active or passive transport protein for choline? (d) For every choline molecule that moves through T, a sodium ion moves through the same transport protein at the same time. The sodium ion moves down its gradient. Add a dashed arrow to the diagram in part (b) to show the direction of movement of sodium.

(iii) What chemical steps take place at each of these active sites (no need to specify the complete reactions)?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about aromatic amino acids is correct? (a) All are strongly hydrophilic. (b) Histidine's ring structure results in its being categorized as aromatic or basic, depending on pH. (c) On a molar basis, tryptophan absorbs more ultraviolet light than tyrosine. (d) The major contribution to the characteristic absorption of light at 280 nm by proteins is the phenylalanine R group.
