Document Summary

Endomembrane system- endoplasmic reticulum, golgi complex, lysosomes and endosomes, vacuoles. Each have specific, unique functions ie. each have unique proteins. Proteins contain sorting signals that target them to particular subcellular destinations. Ecm matrix proteins (fibroblasts/osteoblasts) eg. collagen of connective tissue - Digestive enzymes of the gut (pancreatic, liver & intestinal cells) Adhesion molecules - to ecm or to other cells, glycocalyx, receptors and ion channels. Palade et al: - looked at route taken by secreted proteins in pancreatic acinar cells. Pulse-chase with radioactive amino acids, followed by autoradiography to detect radioactive proteins. Gfp-fusion proteins green fluorescent protein follow proteins in live cells in real time ts mutant cargo protein allows accumulation in donor compartment lower temperature allows transport to proceed. Proteins contain a signal sequence (~ 20 amino acids including a stretch of > 8 hydrophobic residues) at their amino terminus that targets them to the er. Attached to rer via signal sequences on polypeptide chains during their synthesis.

QUESTION 31

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

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

2.5 points

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

True

False

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.

2.5 points

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

2.5 points

QUESTION 37

	1.	Membranes are synthesized in Golgi Complex.
	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.

2.5 points

QUESTION 38

During skeletal muscle contractions, the shortening of the muscle fibers is because of:

		The shortening of the cytoskeletal filaments.
		The kinesin proteins moving over microtubules.
		The actin and myosin filaments sliding over each other.

2.5 points

True

False

2.5 points

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
