Cell Biology Short Answer Question: Review the
steps for ligand-induced activation of effector protein mediated by
trimeric G proteins. Suppose you have isolated a mutant Gα that has
increased GTPase activity, what effect would this mutation have on
the G protein and the effector protein?
Compare and contrast the immune response of NK cells and
cytotoxic T cells during primary infection and subsequent
infections. Include a comment on the magnitude, kinetics and
mechanism of activation observed
a Which motor protein is likely to be
moving the organelles along the microfilaments and which direction
along the microfilaments will these move?
b After streaming stopped when cells
were prodded in tap water why do you think the streaming resumed
after ~1 minute?
c When cells are prodded,
Ca2+ enters the cell by which process(es): simple
diffusion, facilitated diffusion, active transport, secondary
active transport, symport and/or antiport?
Which of the following processes: T cell development, T cell
activation, B cell development, B cell activation would be
disrupted by a deficiency in the indicated protein. Your answer
should include all processes that would be disrupted. If
none of these processes is disrupted, state NONE.
Part 2: Justify your answers (a-d) by describing the cell
type(s) that express the molecule and the function of the molecule
in the processes you indicated would be disrupted.
a. CD3 zeta chain
b. TLR4...
