Q
  1. What is the main difference between uncompetitive and non-competitive inhibition of enzymes?
Study These Flashcards
A

a. Non-competitive inhibitor binds to an allosteric site somewhere else on the enzyme
b. Uncompetitive inhibition is when it binds to a site adjacent next to the active enzyme substrate complex preventing the release of products

19

Study These Flashcards
A

a. kinetochore microtubules

20
Q

23
Q
  1. Which of the following is true about primase?
Study These Flashcards
A

a. It lacks proofreading ability

24
Q
  1. Which of the following is true about the Receptor Tyrosine Kinase?
Study These Flashcards
A

a. RTK is only functional once two receptor molecules dimerize
b. Once an RTK is activated, it can hold multiple phosphate groups on its intracellular domain
c. An RTK remains activated as long as the signal is bound to the receptor

25
8. Phosphodiesterase converts ______to ___________ Adenylyl cylase converts ______________ to ______________ Answer choices: AMP, cAMP
Phosphodiesterase converts cAMP to AMP Adenyl Cyclase converts AMP to cAMP
26
Cyclin dependent kinases only function when bound with __________
Cyclin
27

(none of these statements is false.)
b. kinetochore microtubules shorten as the cell progresses from prometaphase to metaphase metaphase to prophase
28
What is are the net products for intermediate step + Krebs cycle per each pyruvate? Per each glucose?
Pyruvate: 3 CO2, 4NADH, 1 FADH2, 1 ATP Glucose 6 CO2, 8NADH, 2 FADH2, 2 ATP
29
What are the net products from one glucose molecule for glycolysis, intermediate step, and Kreb's Cycle?
6 CO2 10 NADH (2 from glycolysis) 2 FADH2 4 ATP (2 from glycolysis) Total ATP: 36-38
30
Why does the electron transport chain have so many steps? Why not in one step?
Rx is extremely exergonic and too much free energy would be released all at once and could not be harvested by the cell

36
What are three proteins/channels that assist with passive membrane transport?

37
Which of the following is most unlike the others? a. Exocytosis b. phagocytosis c. pinocytosis d. receptor-mediated endocytosis e. None of the above
a. Exocytosis

d. Cortisol receptor
42
For the secondary messengers DAG and IP3; which one is hydrophobic and which one is hydrophilic? a. DAG: hydrophilic; IP3: hydrophobic b. IP3: hydrophilic; DAG: hydrophobic c. They are both hydrophilic. d. They are both hydrophobic.
b. IP3: hydrophilic; DAG: hydrophobic IP3 is found in cytoplasm DAG is found in membrane
43
True/false: at the G1-S phase transition Retinoblastoma Protein (RB) is activated by cyclin-cdk and the cell cycle proceeds
False: RB is a tumor supressor which, when active, acts as the "brakes" of cell division. Phosphorylation inactivates RB innactivresults in RB becoming inactive
44
True/false: at the G1-S phase transition Retinoblastoma Protein (RB) is activated by cyclin-cdk and the cell cycle proceeds
False: RB is a tumor supressor which, when active, acts as the "brakes" of cell division. Phosphorylation inactivates RB and the cell transitions from G1-S phase
