Proteins destined for the nucleus contain a "nuclear localization signal" or NLS. How does the the NLS direct the protein to the nucleus?
|
Proteins that contain a NLS are allowed to freely diffuse into the nucleus |
||||||||||||||
|
Proteins that contain a NLS interact with a receptor on the surface of the nuclear membrane |
||||||||||||||
|
Proteins that contain a NLS interact with a transport system that is powered by the hydrolysis of GTP |
||||||||||||||
|
Proteins that contain a NLS are synthesized by ribosomes attached to the nuclear membrane and they are extruded into the nucleus All of the following are second messengers used inside the cell for signaling except:
|
You have identified a new gene in the superchick stimulated growth factor pathway. Interestingly, both copies of the gene must be mutant in order for the phenotype of excessive growth to appear. Which of the following could explain the function of your gene?
|
Your new gene could encode a tyrosine phosphatase that is responsible for inactivating the tyrosine kinase receptor |
||
|
Your new gene could encode a protein that inhibits the activation of the protein ras |
||
|
Your new gene could encode a protein that inhibits any of the MAP kinase proteins (Raf, Mek or Erk). |

John has an injury to the lower thoracic spinal cord experienced a loss of pain sensation on the right side of the lower body following the injury since ________?
a. the left side of the spinal cord contains neuronal bodies that transmit painful stimuli from both sides of the body.
b. thalamocortical neurons send collaterals that cross over the midline of the brain, innervating the somatosensory cortex on the contralateral side of the body from the lesion.
c. the nucleus gracilis receives input from the contralateral nociceptive DRG neurons
d. DRG neurons transmitting ascending nociceptive information cross over the midline of the spinal cord at the spinal segment receiving the input.
e. the right side is primarily innervated by TrkC-expressing neurons in left DRGs

Your sister Sue has not been feeling well so she went to see her doctor. Her doctor had her go to the lab and have several blood tests done. Sue is anxious to know what is wrong so she picks up a copy of the lab report. Sue comes to you in hopes that you can help her understand the report. The following are the results of the lab report.
Value Range
WBC H 12 [4.4-10.5] x10 3/mm3
RBC 4 [3.75-5.00] x10 6/mm3
Hemoglobin L 10 [11.4-14.7] G/DL
Hematocrit 35 [34.3-45.5] %
Platelet count 300 [139-361] x10 3/mm3
Which values of this part of the report are out of the normal range? And are the values low or high?
