QuestionAnswer
In the red cell ghosts, the reason phospholipid 1 (PL1) reaches a plateau more quickly than phospholipid 2 (PL2) is because The nitroxide radical of Pl1 is more accessible to ascorbate than the nitroxide radical of Pl2
Which of the following is TRUE regarding the ESR signals in intact red blood cells PL1 is reduced by the cytosol on the inner half of the bilayer
The reason that PL2 shows similar results in both intact red cells and red ghosts is PL2 is protected from reduction by the cytosol by virtue of its location on the hydrophobic tail of the phospholipid
