Document Summary

Intracellular compartments of an animal cell: cell is highly compartmentalized structure with subcellular compartments. 4 families of intracellular compartments based on topological (same) space: nucleus and cytosol, vesicles that are part of the vesicular and endosecretory pathways such as er, Golgi, endosomes and secretory vesicles: mitochondria, plastids. In all cases, need sorting signals as well as proteins that recognize these signals. If from the cytosol to the membrane compartments, it is thru transmembrane transport: once in a membrane compartment, to go from one membrane compartment to another is thru vesicular transport. Nucleocytoplasmic transport: nuclear envelope is a double membrane structure that has an inner and outer nuclear membrane. Inner and outer membrane are continuous with each other: the outer membrane is actually continuous with er membrane. Just because they are continuous does not mean they are the same because they are distinct based on the proteins that are embedded or expressed.

QUESTION 31

The destinations of proteins synthesized on "free" ribomsomes include:

	1.	Endoplasmic reticulum
	2.	Nucleus
	3.	Mitochondria
	4.	Lysosomes

QUESTION 32

Microtubules can be assembled and disassembled quickly in response to the cellular changes is because:

	1.	Cells synthesize tubulin proteins very fast.
	2.	Cells can turn other cytoskeletal filaments into microtubules
	3.	Microtubules have an instable plus end and microtubules are probably organized by weak non-covalent interactions
	4.	The motor proteins of microtubules can organize the microtubules in response to the cellular changes

QUESTION 35

The membrane vesicles that transport materials between membrane compartments have a protein coat. The protein coat has similar functions in different vesicles. These functions include:

	1.	Help the enclosed material fold correctly.
	2.	Help degrade the protein in the vesicles
	3.	Maintain the internal pH of the vesicles
	4.	Function as mechanical device to form a vesicle and select the components to be carried by a vesicle.

QUESTION 36

Lysosomes are important for:

	1.	Receptor-mediated endocytosis.
	2.	Breaking down foreign particles brought into the cells by endosomes
	3.	Regulating the process of organelle turnover.
	4.	Protein trafficking between membrane compartments

	2.	Membranes arise from preexisting endoplasmic reticulum membranes.
	3.	Membranes are synthesized on ribosomes.
	4.	Membranes of all organelles have the same composition of proteins and lipids, since they all originate from endoplasmic reticulum.

True

False

QUESTION 40

The functions of Golgi complex include:

	1.	O-linked oligosaccharides and most of a cellâs complex polysaccharides are assembled in Golgi complex
	2.	Cis Golgi complex sorts proteins
	3.	Trans Golgi complex segregates proteins in different types of vesicles for dilevery.
	4.	N-linked oligosaccharides are further processed in Golgi complex
