Chapter 9.2, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
To describe: The process before the reassociation of β/γ dimer and α subunit with each other.
Introduction: GPCRs stands for G-protein-coupled-receptors and are present in cells of eukaryotes. It contains transmembrane segments which move back and forth through plasma membrane and interact with the intracellular G proteins.

In neurons, the proteolytic enzyme y-secretase produces the Aß amyloid peptides shown below. The AB40 peptide is thought to play a protective role in the neuron. However, the AB42 peptide appears to be toxic since it is found in the amyloid plaques that cause Alzheimer's Disease (AD). AB40 and AB42 are identical, except that AB42 contains two extra amino acid residues (shown in red) at the C-terminal end. Based on your knowledge of amino acids and proteins, which of the following factors is most likely to explain the greater plaque-forming activity of AB42 compared to AB40? Sequence of Aß40: DAEFRHDSGYEVHHQKLVFFAEDVGSNKGAIIGLMVGGVV Sequence of AB42: DAEFRHDSGYEVHHQKLVFFAEDVGSNKGAIIGLMVGGVVIA O The greater length of AB42 makes it more likely to aggregate and form plaques. O AB42 has a lower pl than AB40, which makes it more likely to aggregate at physiological pH. O AB42 is more hydrophobic than AB40, which makes it harder to clear from the cell and thus more likely to…arrow_forwardDocking and Membrane Fusion. Q-8a. Choose from the terms below to Fill-in the Blanks. [All terms are used. Some terms are used more than once] Rab, SNARE, v- SNARE, t-SNARE, Tethering a. Identification of a vesicle to be docked depends on a diverse family of monomeric GTPases called proteins. First, a filamentous protein on a target membrane binds to a protein on the surface of a vesicle. This interaction allows the vesicle to dock on its particular target membrane. A on the vesicle then binds to a complementary_ on the target membrane. Whereas and proteins provide the initial recognition between a vesicle and its target membrane, complementary appropriate target membranes. Together, the proteins ensure that transport vesicles dock at their proteins catalyze the final fusion of the two membranes by squeezing out water making fusion more energetically favorable. b.

- Explain well. Asaparrow_forwardCell signaling The maximum secretion rates of proteins are one type of limiting constraint on signal-ing processes since a cell cannot send a signal faster than it can secrete it. These maximum signalingrates can be estimated with maximum rates of transcription and translation. Consequently, proteins withstrong promoters can be synthesized at much higher rates. Immunoglobulins, which are important signal-ing molecules, have very strong promoters. Their maximum secretion rate is on the order of 2000 to 8000antibody molecules/cell/second, which corresponds to approximately 1 pg/cell/hr. Part AWhat would be the maximum signal (in pg/cell/hr) that a cell could send for the following situations: (1)Signal molecule A has a MW = 100,000 daltons and is secreted at a rate of 1000 molecules/cell/second. (2)Signal molecule B has a MW = 50,000 daltons and is secreted at 5000 molecules/cell/second.Part BWhich molecule is secreted at a higher rate? By how much?Part CIf equivalent fluxes of both…arrow_forwardDescrive in 2-3 sentences an in vitro experiment that differentiates between the Arp2/3 complex’ ability to associate with both the side of the ‘mother’ actin filament and with the barbed end of the ‘mother’ actin filament.
