proteins assume 3d structure by what?
|
spontaneous folding or chaperone mediated folding
|
|
How do proteins go to their destination?
|
signal sequence: a hydrophobic sequence at N-terminal of protein
|
|
Ribosomes synthesize proteins in the ___ or as part of ___
|
cytosol or rER
|
|
free cytoplasmic ribosomes are destined for where?
|
cytoplasm
nucleus mitochondria |
|
ER-bound ribosomes produce what type of proteins?
|
secreted proteins
plasma membrane proteins ER proteins golgi proteins lysosomal proteins |
|
What is the protein traffic approach to transport between ER and the protein destinations?
|
vesicular transport
|
|
singal hypothesis
|
a stretch of aa (at N-terminus) directs the proteins to specific locations. the signal sequence is subsequently cleaved off
|
|
In vitro translation of secreted protein
|
experiment comparing translation in cell free system (larger protein) vs with presence of microsomes (smaller protein).
|
|
microsome
|
ER+ribosomes
|
|
SRP
|
signal recognition particle:
complex of 300 nucleotides it recognizes the signal sequence in the cytosol |
|
SRP receptor
|
alpha and beta subunit:
an ER membrane protein that binds to SRP |
|
translocator
|
an ER membrane protein with a pore
|
|
signal peptidase
|
cleaves the signal sequence
|
|
Transmembrane proteins are classified into 5 types. What are they?
|
Type 1-5
|
|
type 1 transmembrane protein
|
cleavable signal
COO- on cytosol |
|
type II transmembrane protein
|
no cleavable signal
NH3+ on cytosol |
|
type III transmembrane protein
|
same as type I (no cleavalbe signal)
CYP is an example |
|
type IV transmembrane protein
|
multipass
example is GPCR |
|
peroxisomes
|
role in transmembrane transport
storage for oxidative enzymes, fatty acid breakdown, and formation of pasmalogen |
|
catalase and urate oxidase
|
oxidative enzymes stored in peroxisomes
|
|
pasmalogen
|
phosholipids found in myelin
formed in peroxisomes |
|
Pex
|
23 peroxin membrane proteins participate in importof peroxisomal proteins
|
|
zellweger syndrome
|
peroxisome transport disorder:
mutation=peroxin Pex2 empty peroxisomes lead to brain, liver, and kidney abnormality...death soon after birth |
|
constitutive secretory pathway
|
fusion of the bud to the membrane is unregulated
|
|
regulated secretory pathway
|
fusion of the bud to the membrane requires a intracellular signaling pathway
|
|
lysosome functino:
|
store a varitey of hydrolytic enzymes
|
|
glycosidases, proteases, phosphatases, sulfatases are examples of what kind of enzyme
|
hydrolytic
|
|
proteins are transported to lysosome by a signal tag_____.
|
mannose-6-P on N-linked oligosaccharide
|
|
I-cell disease
|
lysosomal storage disease
phase-dense intracytoplamic inclusions in the fibroblasts of pts due to deficiency of GIcNAc-phosphotransferase (mannose-6-P attaching enzyme) |
|
I-cell
|
inclusion cell
|
|
phagocytosis
|
fusion wiht lysosome via phagocytic vacuole
|
|
pinocytosis
|
uptake of fluid droplets (membrane material)
|
|
receptor-mediated endocytosis
|
uptake of soluble proteins and high mol vt material
ie. LDL, worn-out plams proteins, mucosal transfer (transcytosis) |
|
endocytosis of LDL
|
receptor-mediated
1. LDL binds to LDL receptor and the receptors cluster 2. adaptin and clathrin bind and the coated pit forms 3. coated vescle forms => to lysosomes |
