Q

What inhibits the Na-K-ATPase pump directly and indirectly?

A

Ouabain- bind to K+ site (indirectly)

Directly: Cardiac glycosides (digoxin & digitoxin) inhibit Na-K-ATPase

Q

Purpose of Cardiac glycosides?

A

Inhibit Na-K-ATPase ->
Indirect inhibition of Na/Ca exchange->
↑[Ca]in cell ->
↑ heart contractility

Q

Describe Na-K-ATPase pump activation

A
  • ATP P’s channel (cytoplasmic side), leading to 3Na to exit cell
  • When pump De-P, then 2 K enter cell

Q

Defective Type 3 Collagen disease?

A

Ehler-Danlos (ThreE D)

17
Q

Purpose of H1 histones?

A

Ties nucleosome beads together

The “general”, keeps them tight and ordered

18
Q

Which histones susceptible to nuclease?

A

All but H1

H2a, H2b, H3, H4

19
Q

What amino acids are in histones?

A

Arginine and Lysine (both positively charged, w/ neg charged DNA)

20
Q

What process inactivates transcription of DNA? (Favors heterochromatin)

A

Histones methylation

21
Q

Effect of histones acetylation?

A

Releases DNA coiling, allowing transcription

Makes DNA Active

22
Q

Differentiate heterochromatin from euchromatin

A

Heterochromatin- inactive, condensed, dark, sterically inaccessible. Where Barr bodies are

euchromatin- active (transcription), less condensed, accessible sterically.

23
Q

Effect of methylation of cytosine and adenine of template strand during DNA replication?

A

Allows mismatch repair enzymes to disguise between old and new strands in prokaryotes.

24
Q

Bond number between G-C?

A-T?

A

Three bonds between Guanine and cytsosine (higher melting point)

Two bonds between adenosine and thymine.

25
Q

What is chargaff rule? If invalid, what organism present.

A

Number of A=T, # C=G

If invalid, DNA virus present!

26
Q

What are the purine?

A

PURe As Gold

Purine:
Adenine, Guanine

27
Q

Draw out all 5 nucleotides

A

Pg 64, FA

28
Q

Nucleotides comes of what? What bond significant here

A

Base + ribose sugar + phosphate

3’-5’ phosphodiester bond

29
Q

What is composition of nucleosides?

A

Nucleotide base + ribose sugar

I.e. Guanine + sugar = guanosine

30
Q

Which amino acids important for purine synthesis?

A

GAG

Glycine
Aspartate
Glutamine

31
Q

Which amino acids required during periods of growth?

A

Arg and Histidine

32
Q

What drugs inhibit Complex 1 in ETC?

A

Rotenone &

Amobarbital
