As a researcher, you develop a drug which blocks the ribosomal subunits from coming together. What would be the implications to the cell? You also develop a drug that blocks the cis face of the golgi. What would happen to the cell?

Expert Solution

If a drug binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit, it blocks the initiation of translation in cell or blocks attachment of tRNA to ribosome.

If the drug binds to the 50S ribosomal subunit of the cell, it blocks the release of tRNA and prevent continuation of protein synthesis or prevents the formation of peptide bond followed by blocking of protein synthesis in the cell.

If a drug blocks the cis face of the golgi, it prevents the movement of the lipids and proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the golgi apparatus.

Ribosomal subunits Come together in threes to form functional units. Are composed of mRNA and structural proteins. Are synthesized in the cytoplasm. Converge only when mRNA is to be translated. Are transcribed from the complementary strand of DNA that is used for tRNA transcription

What is translation, where does it occur? How many ribosomal subunits are there, and where are they constructed? What are the P and A sites? What occurs during initiation, elongation, and termination and what are the three steps of elongation. What is the function of the stop codon?

a. Outline the steps of the ribosome cycle. At what stage do the ribosomal subunits bind to each other? To mRNA? What causes them to dissociate when protein synthesis is complete? In detail. b. Outline the steps by which aminoacyl tRNA synthetases charge tRNAs. How can some organisms get away with having fewer than 20 synthetases, yet still charge tRNAs with all 20 amino acids? In detail.

You mix all the required elements for translation, charged tRNA with amino acids, ribosomal subunits, and mRNA etc.

You mix all the required elements for translation, charged tRNA with amino acids, ribosomal subunits, and mRNA etc., in a test tube. Given that the mRNA has the following sequence, what is/are the polypeptide(s) that could be produced (ignore the lack of start and stop codons) 5' - AGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGCAGC-3" A. Poly-Ser. B. Poly-Gin. C. Poly-Arg. D. Poly-Met. E. Multiple of the above would be produced.

Answer ASAP please!!! You are the researcher and you develop a hypothesis. It states that by providing relaxation therapy to a group of 10 smokers who average 20 cigarettes a day, you hypothesize that they will reduce the number of cigarettes they smoke after eight weeks of therapy. You will take measurements on the group you have provided relaxation therapy to after eight weeks and the mean is 16 cigarettes. You compare the mean to two other groups who did...
