snRNP what is its function what does the name represent who syn them and where |
small nuclear ribonucleoprotein they are synthesized by RNA polymerase 2 in the nucleus. they help remove introns form the RNA transcript nand are thus necessary for synthesis of mRNA |
|
what metabolic process occurs in the cytoplasm and in the mitochondrial |
cytoplasm pentose phosphate pathway mitoc b-oxidaton of ffa ketogenesis TCA parts of urea CPS1 and ornithine transcarbamoylase pyruvate carboxylation |
|
older person with lactic acidosis w pnemonia what will this lead to |
septic shock dt tissue hypoxia which will lead to oxidative phosphorylation and the shunting of pyruvate to lactate following glycolysis. |
|
elderly pt with dementia or hemiparesis who presents signs of pneumonia may also present with what what will you see on the xray |
dysphagia which is a risk factor for aspiration pneumonia. dependent lung consolidation commonly seen in aspiration pneumonia |

|
explain the kozak sequence what happens when you have a mutation that changes guanosine for cytosine three bases upstream from the start codon (AUG) |
plays a role in the initiation of translation (mRNA binding to ribosomes) this is associated with thalassemia intermedia and will affect the kozak sequence |
|
a mutation in the kozak sequence of the beta-globin gene is associated with thalassemia intermedia, which results in |
hypochromic, microytic |
