Chapter 23, Problem 46P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The effect of PAN on archaeal proteasome activity in the absence of nucleotides should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Proteasomes are the protein complexes; whose function is to degrade the damaged proteins by the process of proteolysis. Proteolysis process breaks the peptide bonds between the amino acids. Further, the enzymes that help in this process is termed as proteases. In eukaryotes, proteasomes are found in the nucleus and cytoplasm of the cell.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The nucleotide required for protein digestion should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Proteasomes are the protein complexes; whose function is to degrade the damaged proteins by the process of proteolysis. Proteolysis process breaks the peptide bonds between the amino acids. Further, the enzyme that helps in this process is termed as proteases. In eukaryotes, proteasomes are found in the nucleus and cytoplasm of the cell.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The evidences that suggest that ATP hydrolysis is required for proteolysis, not just the presence of ATP, should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Proteasomes are the protein complexes; whose function is to degrade the damaged proteins by the process of proteolysis. Proteolysis process breaks the peptide bonds between the amino acids. Further, the enzyme that helps in this process is termed as proteases. In eukaryotes, proteasomes are found in the nucleus and cytoplasm of the cell.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The reason for differences in peptide digestion and protein digestion should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Interpretation Introduction

(f)

Interpretation:

If Thermoplasma PAN can augment protein digestion by proteasomes from other organisms should be determined.

Interpretation Introduction

(g)

Interpretation:

The significance of the stimulation of the stimulation of rabbit muscle proteasome by Thermoplasma PAN should be determined.
