Kainic acid was one of the first compounds used to model TLE in
rodents. What is(are) its molecular target(s) and how would this
compound lead to seizures?
Some species of rodents live on average 6 years. In the first
two years of life they do not reproduce and only 20% of the females
born alive reach 2 years of age. Between the third and fourth year
females have 1 daughter on average and their survival is 50%, while
in the las two years they have 2 daughters on average. If in an
ecosystem there is initially a population of 10 females between 0
and 2 years old,...
Shown following is the first 30 amino acid (one-letter code)
region of this putative amino acid sequence for p18:
1YFNPS
6TSDWPT 11LAPAN 16YTFLF 21FLARY 26WYINL30
A) Based on the partial amino acid sequence provided, do you
think that it is more likely that this region of p18 associates
with a cellular membrane or is exposed to the cytosol?
B) Why or why not?
C) Describe how you would experimentally demonstrate if p18 was
associated with the membrane or the cytosol.
One carbon groups from various sources can be used for the
synthesis of new compounds. Outline the steps involved in the
transfer of a one carbon group from glycine to homocysteine. How
can the product of these reactions be used in further one carbon
transfers?
a) One of the most frequently used communication process model
is the AIDA model. Briefly explain how marketers use this model
effectively in taking the consumer through an effective
communication process in order to achieve its communication
objectives. 25 Marks
b) Differentiate between advertising and product placement with
examples.
One Proportion . Nexium is a drug that can be used to reduce the
acid produced by the body and heal damage to the esophagus due to
acid reflux. Suppose the manufacturer of Nexium claims that more
than 94% of patients taking Nexium were healed within 8 weeks. In
clinical trials, 213 of 224 patients suffering from acid reflux
disease were healed after 8 weeks. Test the manufacturer’s claim at
α=0.01 level of significance. State the conclusion.
State the null...
