28
Q

v- and t- SNARE are

A

Complementary molecules

Their alpha helices tightly intertwine and pull membranes together

29
Q

After fusion v- and t- SNARE are still

A

Tightly associates and in same membrane

Need NSF and SNAPS to pry apart the SNAREs using energy

30
Q

COPI-coated vesicle forming is

A

Similar to COPII-coated
Use different coat

31
Q

Endocytic pathway

A

Exocytosis and Endocytosis

In steady state with each other

32
Q

Exocytosis

A

1- approach secretory vesicle to plasma membrane
2- fusion of membrane
3- rupture plasma membrane
4- discharge vesicle contents
5- vesicle membrane integrated into plasma membrane

33
Q

Endocytosis

A

1- membrane form a pocket contain materials from exterior
2- membrane closes, forming a vesicle
3- vesicle separate from plasma membrane

34
Q

Some Vesicles after budding out from TGN

A

Move directions to cell surface and exocytosis
consecutive secretion

35
Q

Consecutive secretion may requires

A

Tags

36
Q

Regulated secretion pathway

A

1- immature bud out from TGN
2- maturation = condensation
3- mature secretary vesicle move close to site of secretion
4- membrane fusion is triggered by hormonal or chemical signal

37
Q

Polarized secretion

A

Specific proteins needs to be secreted from a limited region of plasma membrane

38
Q

Polarized secretion is common in

A

Nerve cells
Intestinal cells

39
Q

Proteins and lipids destined for polarized secretion are

A

Sorted into vesicles with receptors to bind the localized region
temporary regulated

40
Q

Exocytosis

A

Proteins are released to exterior of the cell
proteins and lipid for membrane use exocytosis

41
Q

Bulk-phase Endocytosis

A

Primates ways that cell maintain membrane and fluid balance
Clarithin-independent Endocytosis

Doesn’t ingest particular molecules—non-specific

42
Q

Endocytosis (Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis)

A

Cell can selectively and efficiently acquire macromolecules by receptor-mediated Endocytosis

Use receptor on outer cell to internalize hormones

43
Q

Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis

A

1-Ligands bind to their receptors on outer cell surface
2-receptor-ligand diffuse latterly
3-they encounter specialized region called coated pits

44
Q

Triskelion

A

Clathrin molecule consist of 3 heavy chains and 3 light chains

45
Q

A

Clathrin molecules extensively overlap, while COPII do not

46
Q

Assembly clathrin cage is promoted

A

Adapter protein 2

47

59
Q

Endocytosis of two type of receptors

A

1- housekeeping receptors
2- signaling receptors

60
Q

Housekeeping receptors mediate

A

the uptake of material that will used by cell

receptor will deliver the bound material in early endosome, releasing it because of the lower affinity at lower ph, then return to the cell membrane
