classifications of lysosomes
primary - newly generated, no digestion

secondary - primary lysosome + vesicle

tertiary - aka residual body - seen in long lived cells like neurons
LAMP 2
lysosomal membrane protein - protected from digestion by glycosylation
constitutive secretory pathway
vesicle buds off Golgi, gets clathrin coated at the plasma membrane, brings substances in via endocytosis and fuse with early endosomes
Golgi derived coated vesicle pathway
coated vesicles bud off directly from Golgi and fuse with an early or late endosome
mannose 6 phosphate pathway
marker is in the cis Golgi, it binds to receptor in the TGN. Cargo is moved into a clathrin coated vesicle - fuse with late endosomes and receptor is recycled
Tay Sachs Disease
mutated hexosaminidase A --> accumulate ganglioside GM2 in concentric layered structures --> dementia and blindness
Hurler Syndrome
deficient alpha L iduronidase --> lysosomes accumulate dermatan sulfate --> affects nervous and skeletal systems
Gaucher Disease
beta glucocerebrosidase can't interact with LIMP 2 - glucosyl ceramide accumulates, affecting liver and spleen
microautophagy
lysosome itself does pinocytosis
chaperone mediated autophagy
target proteins selectively with HSC70 and LAMP 2A as a receptor
mTOR
protein that is present when there are plenty nutrients present in the cell - otherwise ribosomes are sacrified during starvation conditions
proteosomes
barrel like structures lined with proteolytic enzymes
ubiquitin
tags proteins for destruction in proteosomes
velcade
inhibitor of proteosomes

treatment for multiple myeloma - allow protein to build up in cancer cells so they die
peroxisome
responsible for beta oxidation of long chain fatty acids (c18+)

also synthesizes phospholipids - plasmalogens needed for myelination of nerve cells
catalase
breakdown of hydrogen peroxide in peroxisomes
adrenoleukodystrophy
impaired beta oxidation of fatty acids - accumulation of long fatty acids in the brain and adrenal cortex
Zellweger's Syndrome
inability to import proteins into peroxisomes
kearns-sayre syndrome
affects eye movement due to abnormalities in mitochondrial DNA
apoptosis
opening of mitochondria via channel made of Bax Bak proteins, releasing cytochrome c into cytosol ==> proteolytic destruction of cell

positively regulated by BH3, negatively by Bcl2
things that are imported into the nucleus
lamins, histones, dna and rna polymerases, transcription factors, ribosomal proteins
things that are exported from the nucleus
tRNAs, mRNAs, ribosomal particles
importin beta
receptor for nuclear cargo (contains nuclear localization or export signals) aided by RAN GTPase that is involved in NPC control mechanism
acrocentric chromosome
contains satellit attached to stalk
submetacentric chromosome
short arms = p
long arms = q
metacentric chromosome
arms are all the same length
centromere = primary constriction
Down syndrome
trisomy 21
Klinefelter's syndrome
XXY male
ionophore
punches holes in nuclear membrane - influx of calcium
G1 phase
one centromere consisting of 2 centrioles (mother and daughter) surrounds by pericentriolar material
G1 --> S phase
centrosomes duplicate (transition is controlled by restriction point) - absence of signaling molecules forces cell to enter resting G0 phase
leptotene
phase of prophase when synaptonemal complex assembles - condensation of chromosome into visible strands
zygotene
phase of prophase where homologs synapse
pachytene
phase of prophase where crossing over occurs - looks like one really dense chromosome
diplotene
phase of prophase where the synaptonemal complex degrades
spermatogonium
in Mitosis - near basal lamina of seminiferous tubule
spermatocyte
in Meiosis I - primary --> secondary transition
spermatid --> spermatozoon transition
occurs during Meiosis II - enter lumen of seminiferous tubule
acrosomal reaction
The membrane surrounding the acrosome fuses with the oocyte membrane, exposing antigens and enzymes of the acrosome needed to break through touggh coating to allow fertilization to occur - after fertilization there is an influx of calcium that creates a barrier to block penetration by other sperm
4 basic types of tissue
epithelial, connective - classified by morphology

muscular, nervous - classified by function
fun facts about epithelium
-can come from any of the 3 embryonic layers -whichever the organ system they belong to comes from
-classified by shape and number of layers
-functions include protection, absorption, secretion
-avascular, so they are located near blood supply in CT
-produces basal lamina
-contains apical, lateral and basal domains
-stains darker than CT
derivation of glands
come from epithelial downgrowth

exocrine maintain a duct to remain in contact with the exterior

endocrine are surrounded by capillaries and produce hormones that are released into the blood or locally to the CT
mucous glands
glycosylated proteins secreted in water soluble granules - stain lightly - flattened nuclei
serous glands
proteins are not glycosylated, less soluble so the granules remain intact - stain darker - round nuclei
basement membrane
site of interaction between epithelium and CT
structure of cilia
motile - 9 + 2 arrangement of microtubule doublets - dynein and nexin connections

primary - 9 + 0 configuration

basal foot - coordinates movement

alar sheet - attaches cilia to plasma membrane - gives stability

striated rootlet - anchors cilium to cell
nodal cilia
found in embryo, play role in organ positioning
basal lamina structure
type IV collagen, laminin, integrin (transmembrane), nidogen, perlecan
mucosa
epithelium + CT lining hollow organs
serosa
thin outer layer of simple squamos cells and underlying CT
