Question
Answer
Names of the steps in protein synthesis   1. Initiation 2. Elongation 3. Termination  
🗑
Sequence of events in the initiation step of protein synthesis.   1. Initiation factors assemble the 40S ribosomal subunit with the initiator tRNA 2. mRNA and (60S?) ribosomal subunit combine with the 40S subunit. 3. Initiation factors are released.  
🗑
Sequence of events in the elongation step of protein synthesis.   1. Aminoacyl tRNA binds to the A site 2. Peptidyltransferase catalyzes peptide bond formation 3. Peptidyltransferase transfers growing polypeptide to aa in A site 4. Ribosome advances 3 nucleotides toward 3' end of RNA moving peptidyl RNA to P site  
🗑
Sequence of events in the termination step of protein synthesis.   1. Completed protein is released from ribosome. 2. Ribosome dissociates.  
🗑
Role of ATP in protein synthesis   ATP does tRNA Activation (charging)  
🗑
Role of GTP in protein synthesis   GTP does tRNA Going places (aka translocation) and Gripping  
🗑
Role of A site in protein synthesis   A site holds incoming Aminoacyl tRNA.  
🗑
Role of P site in protein synthesis   P site accomodates growing Peptide.  
🗑
Role of E site in protein synthesis   E site holds Empty tRNA as it Exits  
🗑
Which post-translational modification involves removal of N or C terminal pro-peptides from zymogens to generate mature proteins?   Trimming  
🗑
What happens in post-translational trimming?   removal of N or C terminal pro-peptides from zymogens to generate mature proteins  
🗑
Which post-translational modification involves phosphorylation?   post-translational covalent alteration  
🗑
What happens during post-translational covalent alterations?   Either: 1. Phosphorylation 2. Glycosylation 3. Hydroxylation  
🗑
Which post-translational modification involves glycosylation?   post-translational covalent alteration  
🗑
Which post-translational modification involves hydroxylation?   post-translational covalent alteration  
🗑
What happens during proteasomal degradation?   Attachment of ubiquitin to defective proteins to tag them for breakdown.  
🗑
Ubiquitin or Ubiquinone: Proteosomal degradation   Ubiquitin  
🗑
Ubiquitin or Ubiquinone: Coenzyme Q in oxidative phosphorylation   Ubiquinone

🗑
Where in the cell does the following occur: Protein Synthesis   Rough endoplasmic reticulum in the cytoplasm  
🗑
Where in the cell does the following occur: Steroid synthesis   Smooth endoplasmic reticulum in the cytoplasm  
🗑
Where in the cell does the following occur: Gluconeogenesis   Pathway has steps in the mitochondria and in the cytoplasm  
🗑
Where in the cell does the following occur: Urea cycle   Pathway has steps in the mitochondria and in the cytoplasm  
🗑
Where in the cell does the following occur: Heme synthesis   Pathway has steps in the mitochondria and in the cytoplasm  
🗑


   

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.
