Barth Syndrome describe how it impacts overall cellular function in those afflicted by the disorder?
Discuss protein folding and misfolding. Give two consequences (or examples) of protein misfolding and describe the effect of the misfolding.
Select the true statements regarding the control of proteins in the cell. Sequestering of proteins in lysozomes is common in cells that function to secrete singaling molecules. Access to monomers is a method of controling polymer synthesis used in the cell post-translation. Phosphorylation involves post-translational control of protein shape and therefore activity. Allosteric activation of proteins is a form of pre-translational control.
When the state (e.g., growth rate, stage of cell cycle, differentiation, stress level) of a cell changes, do the proteins in the cell, or those secreted from the cell, change in a characteristic (fingerprint-like) pattern? Which proteins change, and how (relative amounts, modifications, splice forms, etc.)?
Describe how a carrier protein functions. What role do carrier proteins serve in the cell? Why are they necessary? Where might you find a carrier protein?
Explain the genetic alterations resulting in protein synthesis defects and their relationship to disease processes such as sickle cell anemia and polycystic kidney disease.
In Cystic Fibrosis, what are the normal and mutated protein function?
