Definition
rRNA
Term
The RER is the primary site for what two things.
Definition
membrane and secretory protein production, protein modification
Term
The SER is the site of
Definition
fatty acid and phospholipid production, detox
Term
human ribosome consist of
Definition
40s and 60s subunits (E site hols empty tRNA as it exits, P site acomidates growing peptide, A site holds the incoming Aminoacyl tRNA
Term
6 FUNCTIONS of the golgi apperatus
Definition
1 distribute proteins and lipids
2. Modyfy N-oligosaccharides on aspargines
3. Add O-oligosaccarides to serine and threonine residues
4. Assembling proteoglycans from core proteins
5. Sulfating sugars in proteoglycans and tyrosine residues on proteins
6. Adding mannose -6-phosphate to specific proteins and sending them to the lysosomes
Term
I-cell disease= type II mucolipidosis is due to and appears like
Definition
failed modification of lysosomal proteins and instead they are secreted from the cell, decresing disposal intracellular waste, coarse facial features and restricted joint movement.
Term
Lysosomal enzymes are active below what PH. And they maintain this ph via
Definition
4.8 via a H-ATPase pump
Term
whats is the primary site of ATP production in aerobic exercise?
Definition
Mitochondria
Term
The inner mitochondrial membrane contains many and is the site for
Definition
Cristae...... electron transport chain via elctron transport carriers I-IV and ATP synthase
Term
Microtubules are made of ? and are incoporated into?
Definition
alpha and beta tubulin bound by two guanosine triphosphate molecules...... form flagella and cilia
Term
the structure of a cilia is ?
Definition
9 doublets of microtubules around the outside each linked by ATPase via dynein
Term
Chediak-Higashi disease is due to
Definition
abnormal microtubule assembly leading to decrease PMN phagocytosis and frequent infections
Term
7 drugs that act on microtubles and their function
Definition
1. Mebendazole/2. thiabendazole = parasites
3. Taxol= breast cancer
4.Griseofulvin= fungus
5. Vincristine /6. vinblastine: cancer
7. Colchicine: gout
Term
kartenger syndrome is due to
Definition
a dynein arm defect
Term
Cystic fibrosis is
Definition
respiratory secretions that are too thick to be cleared via ciliary motion
Term
The 5 types of cellular junctions on down and their functions
Definition
1. Zona Occludens (tight): determine cellular polarity and regulate paracellular transport
2.Zona Adherens (intermediate): periodically in a belt like distribution. inside the cell it is actin filaments. Outside the cellE-cadherins use CA depentdent adhesion proteins to span wider spaces then ZO.
3. Macula Adherend (desmosomes): spot welds; single rivets randomly spaced on epitheliail apical surface. Intracellulary = kertin gives strength +cadherins
4. Gap junctions ( communicating): 6 connexin proteins form a connexon which is a hllow cylinder spaning plsma membrane binds connexins other cells forming gap junctions,,,,, Allow for coupling of cardiac monocytes--> rapid depolarizing and cordinating contractions.
5. Hemidesmosomes: Connect to Basal Lamina and contains laminin 5 achor
Term
Adenocarcinomas spread via
Definition
loss of their epithelial cell junction--> infiltration and mets
Term
Protein is in the
Definition
plasma
Term
Erythrocytes make up what percent of the blood volume and this is known as
Definition
45% hematocrit
Term
Erythrocytes can be seperated from Luekocytes and platelet (buffy coat) layer via
Definition
centrifugation
Term
Hematopoesis occurs in from a pluripotent stem cell and are capable of ?
Definition
the bone marrow, self renewal and differentiation into myeloid and lymphoid cells (commited)
Term
Myeloid lineage produces 5 colony forming cells
Definition
1.erythroid (erythrocytes)
2. megakaryocytes (platelets
3.basophil
4. Eosinophil
5. granulocyte macrophage ( monocytes and neutrophils
Term
lymphoid lineage produces
Definition
1. T cells
2. B cells
Term
erythroucytes are >
Definition
nonnucleated biconcave disks for gas exchange, no organelles but glycolytic enzymes to survive via anerobic respiration and hexosemonophosphate shunt
Term
Reticulocytes are differentiated by
Definition
nucleus and larger diameter
Term
Erthrocyte metabolism is via
Definition
glucose brought in by GLUTI 1 transporter, glycolytic enzymes--> ATP/ lactic acid
Term
5 types of red cell cytoskeleton abnomalities
Definition
1. heredity spherocytosis
2. eliptocytosis
3. hemoglobinopathies = thalasemias, SS
Term
Reticulocyte count increae when
Definition
BM increase production to replenish RBC count in hemolysis or bleed
