Pregunta 15
Pregunta
Where does prenylation occur?
Respuesta
-
In a CAAX box (where A should be Alanine, but anything small and hydrophobic will do)

Respuesta
-
The Asn in an NX(S/T)
-
The Phe in an FX(S/T)
-

Pregunta 22
Pregunta
What is the residue that is attached to the amino acid?
Respuesta
-
Mannose
-
Glucose
-
N-acetyl-galactosamine
-
N-acetyl glucosamine
Pregunta 23
Pregunta
What residues are on the tips of the branches?
Pregunta 24
Pregunta
If the branches end with mannose, what is the process called?
Pregunta 25
Pregunta
Why are 3 glucose added to the sugar complex in the golgi?
Respuesta
-
So they can be removed as markers for protein folding and transport
-
So the Golgi knows they're bound for the membrane
-
So the Golgi can degrade the protein as faulty
Pregunta 26
Pregunta
Why is it called High-Mannose Biantennary N-Glycosylation?
Respuesta
-
Because one of the three branches is removed, giving two 'antenna'
-
Because another branch is formed off the first one, giving two 'antenna'
-
Because proteins with this type of glycosylation act as receptor proteins with two antenna
Pregunta 27
Pregunta
Once the Biantennary complex has been formed, what happens next?
Respuesta
-
Mannose is removed
-
Addition of N-acetyl neuraminic acids
-
Addition of glucose
-
Removal of N-acetyl glucosamine
-
Addition of a fucose to the GlcNac bound to the amino acid
Pregunta 28
Pregunta
Why the complicated process of adding and removing sugars?
Respuesta
-
It adds a date stamp to the cell- over time the NeuAc's fall off, which signals the protein for degredation
-
It adds a transport signal- depending on what is added or removed, proteins are directed to different areas by carrier proteins
-
It's quality control- the contortions required to add and remove all the sugars mean that the protein has folded properly
Pregunta 29
Pregunta
The HIV virus can use glycosylation to hide from the immune system
Pregunta 30
Pregunta
Why is N-linked glycosylation potentially dangerous?
Respuesta
-
Because the immune system is programmed to ignore it, viral coat proteins can use it to hide the virus
-
Because NeuAc's can be toxic in high concentrations
-
Because the removal of mannose can cause the protein to misfold
