Q

lipoprotein

  • core (what is here)
  • shell (what is here)

2 examples each

A
  • hydrophobic core (TAG and cholesterol)

Q

what’s the most common enzyme def in humans

17
Q

GAG are composed of “” units

how long can they be

A

repeating disaccharide

over 100 sugars

18
Q

GAG are/are not slippery

therefore they are good for what

A

slippery

serve as body fluids

19
Q

In most cases, GAGs are found in what form

20
Q

example of proteglycan and its importance in body

A

CHON-DRO-I-TIN sulfate

composes cartilage

21
Q

which disease is a major target for gene therapy research

A

mucopolysaccharidoses (bc they are enzyme disorders)

22
Q

how are proteoglycan and glycoprotein DIFFERENT

glycoprotein are often linked to what groups

A

Glycoprotein has shorter carb chains

asparagine (N linked)
serine or threonine (O linked)

23
Q

read: process of carb attaching to proteins is called glycosylation

24
Q

Which organ has zymogen granules

25
pancreas is breaking down and is unhealthy...what do you detect in blood
lipase and amylase
26
other than produce bile AND store glycogen, liver synthesizes what proteins
clotting factor and albumin
27
function of canaliculi
carries bile (read: eventually forms bile ductules)
28
Gallbladder muscularis contracts in response to what hormone
CCK (read: then sends bile into common bile duct)
29
Palmitic fat has # carbons
16 c
30
Which organ has NO muscularis mucosa and NO sub-mucosa
Gallbladder
31
HDL has what type of Apo (other than C2 and E)
Apo A 1 | not Apo B 100
32
INDICATOR of decreased muscle mass INDICATOR of liver damage
low urine creatinine liver-high AST (Aspartate aminotransferase) and high ALT (Alanine aminotransferase)
33
salivary glands produce what two enzymes
``` 1 kallikrein (converts kininogen to bradykinin, a vasodilator) 2 amylase (carb digestion) ```
34
Linoleic has # carbons and # double bonds Lino lenic ?
leic = 18 C and 2 DB lenic = 18 C and 3 DB
