You’re working as a travel agent and you’re planning on advertising trips based on the terrestrial biome associated with specific destination cities or countries. Prepare a minimum of 150 word ad for a destination city or country(Kathmandu, Nepal) wherein you describe what tourists can expect when they arrive in terms of climate and wildlife. Aim your ad at those tourists more interested in the biology/ecology of the area as opposed to city sites or attractions.

ATCase perfrorms the first step in CTP synthesis using aspartate as a substrate. It is a wonderful example of allosterism:

a) Describe the quartenary structure of ATCase. To get you started remember that the enzyme consists of two different subunits, of which there are 6 of each for a total of 12 subunits.

b) What are the functions of the two different subunits?

c) what are the allosteric effectors and what is their role in the KM of ATCase?

all the laboratory techniques and compare and contrast on what can be learned from each of the assays and discuss why multiple assays may be advisable. Refer to literature to support your conclusions and cite at least 3 peer reviewed sources.

Methods Review

Clear and concise description of assays performed in Immunology lab as it relates to COVID 19 testing and research

Review is not intended to be a step by step protocol in how to perform the assay but a top level description of how the assay is performed and what can be learned from each of the techniques

Completeness

Discussion of all Immunology assays as related to COVID 19

Top level description of how the assay is performed and most importantly, detail what can be lfrom each of the techniques performed in Immunology as it relates to COVID 19.

Analysis

Analysis of techniques for differences and commonalities

Compare and contrast between each of the techniques performed in Immunology lab and describe what can be learned from each of the assays.

Address limitations of each of the techniques performed in Immunology lab

Discuss any optimum combination of techniques performed in Immunology 453 lab for Covid testing and research and why multiple assays may be advisable. Explain why necessary

Serial Dilution as it relates to any of the assays performed (ie standard curve construction)

Lymphocyte discussion (ie as it relates to COVID 19 infection)

Bradford (ie as it relates to Western Analysis)

Microarray

Elisa

Western Blotting

Affinity Column

QPCR

Enzyme Activity Assay- Lysozyme is just an example of this (may apply best with future research exploration)

Many studies depend on eDNA to collect samples from aquatic environments because:

A. DNA disperses and remains free floating in a body of water

B. An electric current is run through water to collect negatively charged DNA

C. They are less likely to show false positives or false negatives

D. DNA clumps when in an aqueous solution and clumps are easy to collect

1) Selective IgA Deficiency is the most common type of immunodeficiency reported for Caucasian populations. It is also strongly associated (by statistics, not because of co-location on a chromosome) with multiple types of of autoimmune disorders, including Graves Disease, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, and Type I Diabetes.
Given the concepts embedded in the Hygiene hypothesis and what we have managed to figure out about the role of IgA in human immunity, what does this observed association between IgA deficiency and autoimmunity suggest to you about:
a) the role of IgA in educating or training our immune responses?

b) the development of autoimmunity without the presence of IgA at our mucosal barriers?

Consider the principles you have been exposed to from the studies of Drosophila embryogenesis. This does NOT mean describe the stages of Drosophila embryogenesis. Another way to think of it is: taking into account what you’ve learned about Drosophila embryogenesis/development, what are some of the general rules or requirements of ALL development (not just Drosophila, but use Drosophila as an example in the supporting sentence.

an example would be Communication is essential. Could be between cells or between cells and the environment. This refers to the process of induction.

three principles that are simple and essential to Drosophila

A mutation replaces the original amino acid, leucine, with threonine in a large protein. The altered protein still functions, but less efficiently. What amino acid might replace leucine but with less effect on protein functions? What amino acid might replace leucine but with even a worse effect on the how the protein functions?

a) less effect if lysine; worse if alanine

b) less effect if methionine; worse if lysine

c) less effect if methionine; worse if alanine

d) less effect if glutamate; worse if lysine

e) less effect if lysine; worse if methionine
