Q

Disease affecting pre albumin

A

22
Q

2/3 of total protein. Mobile repository of AA for incorporation into other proteins.

23
Q

Biosynthesis of plasma proteins:

A

Analbuminemia

24
Major component of the a1-globulins is the protease inhibitor AAT combine with and inactive trypsin
A1 antitrypsin
25
Released following inflammation responding to irritants
Elastase
26
Best procedure to measure albumin, haptoglobin & complement
Mephelometry
27
Largest major nonimmunoglobulin in plasma, MW 725 000 Da comparable to that of the major protease inhibitor AAT, although women have higher levels than men in response to estrogen.
A2- macroglobulin
28
A2- macroglobulin are high in what condition. More than 3g/dL
Nephrotic syndrome
29
AM2 can be identified by
Isoelectric focusing
30
Form a complex. No globin. See bubbles due to release of catalase.
Haptoglobin
31
Bubbles of oxygen due to
Catalase
32
Circulation of haptoglobin
Reticulo endothelial system
33
Can fresh or stored. C3 cleaved to for C3c them migrate to go to b-globulins
Complement
34
Complement deficient protein diseases
Autoimmune
35
More appreciated in electrophoresis
C3
36
Most abundant of the coagulation factors and which forms fibrin clot
Fibrinogen
37
Produces covalent bonds between lysine and glutamine residues. A crosslinked clot is refractory to dissolution.
Factor XIII
38
Functionally deformed fibrinogen. Bleeding problem and more prone to formation of thrombus or clot.
Dysfibrinogenemias
39
Essentially no fibrinogen is synthesized results in hemorrhagic disorder
Congenital Fibrinogenemia
40
Is a copper binding protein and exhibit oxidase activity. Low at birth and increases in pregnancy, blue color copper then react to yellow chromagens.
Ceruloplasmin
41
Greenish if impaired
Ceruloplasmin
42
Hepatolenticular degeneration
Wilson's dse
43
Group specific component globulin. Decreased in sever liver disease. D binding protein. In middle of albumin and gamma. Can be found in nephrotic syndrome.
Vitamin D
44
Methods for Vit D
Rocket, radioimmunoassay
45
Orosomucoid High CHO content. Binds to drugs like lidocaine. Acute phase reactants.
A1 acid Glycoprotein
46
Pneumococcal infections, rises strikingly whenever there is tissue necrosis. Capacity to precipitate the C substance.
CRP
47
Highly specific for neutralizing chymotrypsin which cleaves peptide bonds at the carboxyl side of tyrosine and phenylalanine residue
AAC
48
Response to inflammatory or stressful states that occur with infection or anything that has something to do with
APRs
49
Due to malnutrition or gross loss of protein
Hypoproteinemia
50
Cut off for nephrotic syndrome albumin
3
51
Loss of transferrin
Iron deficiency anemia
52
Transferrin band forms a narrow clonal
Myeloma protein
