Q

H-H equation for bicarbonate system

A

pH = 6.1 + log [HCO3-]mM/ .03Pco2mmHg

pH = 6.1 + log 24 mM/ .03 X 40mmHg
pH = 6.1 + log 24/ 1.2
pH = 6.1 + log 20 = 7.4!

25
Regulated Intramembrane Proteolysis
o Cleavage of bHLH from SREBP sometimes cuts in transmembrane domain o Critical for Notch signaling and development o Important for cleavage of APP protein to produce B-amyloid peptide in Alzheimer’s disease
26
Proteins involved in RIP of bHLH
S1P and S2P | Two step protellysis
27
) HIV - Gp41 protein mechanism
Brings transmembrane domain and fusogenic pepetide domain close together  fp imbedded into membrane
28
Regulation of specificity for viral fusion comes at the ___ level
Activation
29
Influenza viral fusion mechanism
- Binds plasma membrane of any cell, and gets internalized into lysosome - Drop in pH of lysosome triggers activation of influenza - Stable metastable conformation triggered by low pH - Not cell specific, but timing specific
30
HIV viral fusion mechanism
- Fuses with plasma membrane and GP41 and GP120 recognize and binds to CD4  change conformation activating GP41 - Regulated by binding to CD4 receptor HIV only recognizes CD4 containing cells
31
Donnan rule
[K+]o [Cl-]o = [K+]i [Cl-]i
32
Describe why, in neurons and other excitable cells, membrane potential is sensitive to small changes in [K+]o, but not [Na+]o.
o Cell is more sensitive to [K+] because its starting concentration outside the cell is much smaller than Na+, and thus is much more sensitive to small changes in concentration
33
People at higher risk for cerebral edema in DKA
Sicker or younger
34
Clinical manifestation cerebral edema
Hypertension | Bradycardic
35
Tight epithelia location
Sweat glands, distal kidney tubules
36
Leaky epithelia locations
small/large intestine, gall bladder, proximal kidney tubules
37
pumps involved in epithelial secretion
- Na/K/2Cl cotransporter- basolateral side | - Cl- channel- apical side
38
Myelin ____ electrical resistance and ____ capacitance
increases | decreases
39
Consequences of demyelination in MS
- Change resting potential - harder to depolarize due to constant leak of K+ out of cell - Produce proliferation of Na channels
40
Therapies for MS
- NA channel blockers | - K+ channel blockers
41
Na channel blockers for treatment of MS
Phenytoin, Flecainidine Preserve axons
42
K channel blockers for treatment of MS
Dalfampridine
43
Signal Recognition Particle (SRP) is made of
6 proteins and 1 RNA
44
What happens after the proteasome cuts off the ubiquitin?
Ubiquitin is recycled
45

Acidic AA Basic AA Hydrophobic AA
46
Microtubule polymerization inhibitors

Mimics | Binds
49
• Lissencephaly
Severe brain development defect, smooth cortical surface (no gyri) oNormal complex cytoarchitecture requires neuronal migration o Due to loss of function n-coflilin (actin filament depolarizing
