Question
Answer
3 methods for enzyme regulation?   allosteric, covalent modification, and transcriptional regulation  
🗑
what groups disrupt conformational change and are important in covalent modification?   kinases and phosphatases  
🗑
when pk is phosphorylated, is it active or not?   inactive  
🗑
what happens to the insulin receptor and glycogen phosphorylase when they are phosphorylated?   they become active  
🗑
what is reponsible for the fight or flight reflex?   glycogen phosphorylase  
🗑
protein kinase A is what kind or regulator?   covalent modification  
🗑
glycosylation does what to protein groups?   adds a carbohydrate  
🗑
to add a protein to a membrane, what should be added?   a fatty acid  
🗑
acetylation is important to what regulation?   histone  
🗑
amino acid modification examples include:   glycosylation, fatty acid prenylation  
🗑
what do matrix metalloproteases do?   enzymes that degrade extracellular matrix proteins

🗑
give an example of compartmentalization:   TCA  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
