ABI 103 Lecture 15: Glycogen Breakdown

What are the causes, symptoms, and complications associated withType I, Type II, and gestational diabetes (GD)? Compare forsimilarities and differences.

Glycoprotein D (gD) of Herpes Simplex Virus bind nectin-1 (a ubiquitous cell membrane receptor) at sites Tyr38, Asp215, and Arg222.
These residues and Phe223 have also been identified as major viral neutralization sites.
Identify five potential mutations that could replace these residues resulting in a change in either structure or function.
Offer an explanation through a lens of the functional groups on the amino acids for each answer.

From a biology standpoint,

The reaction in RBC's of how carbon dioxide and water willeventually become H+ and HCO3- is

CO2 + H2O --> H2CO3 --> H+ + HCO3-.

What is the purpose of making H+ and HCO3-? Please answer withdetail. Thank you.
