Studies of the endomembrane system often involve the use of a protein that can emit a green fluorescence (glow). A researcher wa

nts to make a video of cell behavior, so she initially labels the outer nuclear envelope of a cell with the fluorescent tag and records a video for several hours. Later, she sees that the tag is part of a transport vesicle very close to the plasma membrane.
The fluorescent tag likely did not become incorporated into which of the following organelles?

Answer:

The correct answers are: Ribosome, Mitochondria, Chloroplast (in case of a plant cell).

Explanation:

  • The Endo-membrane system in the cell represents the membranes of the Nucleus, Endoplasmic Reticulum, Golgi apparatus, Plasma Membrane, Vacuole and Lysosome.
  • The Nuclear Envelope is made up of a phospholipid bilayer which remains in continuation with the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) membrane.
  • Therefore, fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein localised in the outer nuclear envelope can move into the ER membrane by lateral movement or through vesicles that bud off from the membrane of the nuclear envelope and fuse with that of the ER membrane.
  • Vesicles bud off from the membrane of the ER and fuse with the Golgi apparatus. Therefore, the fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein can move into the membrane of the Golgi apparatus.
  • Vesicles bud off from the Golgi apparatus and fuse with the Plasma membrane, Lysosome membrane, and Vacuole membrane. Hence, the fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein can be found in all these organelles.
  • Ribosome lacks a membrane and hence, the fluorescent tagged integral membrane protein will be absent over here.
  • Both Mitochondria and Chloroplast, are self-replicating and dividing organelles. Their proteins (membrane or matrix) are encoded mostly by their own genome. Also, vesicles that bud from from nucleus or ER or Golgi apparatus do not fuse into their membrane. Hence, the fluorescent tagged protein would not be able to reach their membrane.

Which ingredients are needed to transform NADP+ to NADPH?
Gnesinka [82]

Answer: Two electrons and a hydrogen ion

Explanation: The light reactions use solar power to reduce NADP+ to NADPH by adding a pair of electrons along with a hydrogen nucleus, or H The light reactions also generate ATP by powering the addition of a phosphate group to ADP, a process called photophosphorylation.

Given are five km values for the binding of substrates to a particular enzyme. which has the strongest affinity when k–1 is grea
solmaris [256]

Answer;

- 1.2 nM

Explanation;

-Smallest Km means highest affinity, can bind substrate better at lower concentrations. The relationship between rate of reaction and concentration of substrate depends on the affinity of the enzyme for its substrate. This is usually expressed as the Km (Michaelis constant) of the enzyme, an inverse measure of affinity

-Km is therefore, the concentration of substrate which permits the enzyme to achieve half Vmax. An enzyme with a high Km has a low affinity for its substrate, and requires a greater concentration of substrate to achieve Vmax.

12In an experiment, a petri dish with a colony of bacteria is exposed to cold temperatures and then warmed again.
klemol [59]
<span>Let the equation be : at^2 + bt + c = P,
where t = time (hrs),
P = population (1000's).
 When t = 1, P = 3.03.
When t = 2, P = 1.72.
When t = 3, P = 1.17.
 Substitute these into the equation to obtain these 3 simultaneous equations : a + b + c = 3.03
4a + 2b + c = 1.72
9a + 3b = c = 1.17
 
Solving gives :
a = 0.38,
b = -2.45,
c = 5.1.
 
The equation is therefore,
P = 0.38t^2 - 2.45t + 5.1
 Testing with t = 0 to 6 gives the population values as provided, so it seems to be a valid model.
 At t = 9 hrs,
P = 0.38*9^2 - 2.45*9 + 5.1
   = 13.83.</span>
