Chapter 31, Problem 47P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Effects on eIF-4 helicase activity in the presence of eIF-4H should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of the eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The importance of measuring the helicase activity of eIF-4H as control should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of the eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The ratio of eIF-4H and eIF-4 should be determined to attain optimal activity.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The varying effect f eIF-4H with helix stability should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of the eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

The effect of eIF-4H on the helicase activity of eIF-4A should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are the proteins, which are used during the initiation of eukaryotic translation process. The function of these proteins is to stabilize the ribosomal complexes that are near the start codon on the mRNA strand.

Please draw out the mechanism with curved arrows showing electron flow. Pyruvate is accepted into the TCA cycle by a “feeder” reaction using the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, resulting in acetyl-CoA and CO2. Provide the mechanism for this reaction utilizing the TPP cofactor. Include the roles of all cofactors.

The mitochondrial ATP synthase has 10 copies of the F0 subunit “c”, and the [H ] in the mitochondrial inner membrane space (IMS) is 6.31 x 10-8 M and the [H + ] in the matrix is 3.16 x 10-9 M. Calculate the minimum membrane potential (∆Ψ) necessary to make ATP synthesis thermodynamically favorable. [Assume ∆G' ofphosphate hydrolysis of ATP is - 45 kJ/mol.]
