Question
Answer
describe the signal peptide   20-30 AAs; usually at the amino terminus; mostly hydrophobic  
🗑
Describe SRP   signal recognition particle; complex proteins and 7S RNA; halts translation until it is bound to rER surface  
🗑
Secreted proteins are often stabilized by what?   disulfide bonds  
🗑
Correct formation of disulfide bonds is helped by what enzyme with regards to protein folding in the ER?   peptidyl disulfide isomerase  
🗑
What is the default pathway for a protein without a signal?   secretion  
🗑
What is cotranslational import?   uptake of protein into ER depends on continuing protein synthesis by the ribosome  
🗑
What form of insulin does the insulin gene code for?   preproinsulin  
🗑
What is the single-chain form of insulin called without its signal peptide?   proinsulin  
🗑
What is KDEL?   Lys-Asp-Glu-Leu; particular peptide sequence that causes proteins to be captured back from the Golgi  
🗑
What is the targeting signal for sorting to the lysosome?   mannose-6-phosphate  
🗑
What is the mitochondrial import signal?   N-terminal alpha helix with a series of basic AAs on one face  
🗑
What genes do mitochondrial DNA code for?   NADH dehydrogenase, cyto b, cyto oxidase, F1 ATPase  
🗑
Is uptake into the mitochondrial membrane considered to be pre or post translational?   posttranslational  
🗑
What is the nuclear localization signal?   5-6 AAs; basic and proline  
🗑
Describe uptake of the protein into the nucleus. pre or post translational?   post-translational  
🗑
What is a common post-translational modification to the N-terminus?   removal of methionine and acetylation  
🗑
What are the two types of post-translational glycosylation?   O-linked and N-linked  
🗑
Describe O-linked post-translational glycosylation   covalently bonded to Ser or Thr; one sugar at a time by glycosyltransferases  
🗑
Describe N-linked post-translational glycosylation   linked to Asn; must occur in Asn-Xxx-Ser/Thr sequence;  
🗑
What is the general peptide sequence for collagen?   Gly-X-Y; X= Pro; Y= 4-OHPro  
🗑
Describe the collagen gene.   50exons; 54bp's and 6GlyXY per base pair  
🗑
What direction does the collagen triple helix form?   C to N-terminus  
🗑
What intracellular post-translational modifications occur in the formation of collagen?   hydroxylations, glycosylations, protofibril formation  
🗑
What enzyme helps for lysine aldehyde cross links?   lysyl oxidase  
🗑
What is the difference between collagen and procollagen?   procollagen still has C and N-propeptides  
🗑
Describe osteogenesis imperfecta.   genetic disorder; characterized by easily breaking bones of varying degree; mutation in type I collagen genes  
🗑
