Depletion of cholesterol in the cell membrane using a drug (mevastatin) has been associated with apoptosis in cancer cells. a. What effect would cholesterol depletion have on the integrity of lipid rafts in the membrane? b. Researchers found that FAS death receptor was activated in cholesterol depleted cancer cells. Explain how activation of this receptor activates killer caspases. c. When a caspase is converted from its inactive to its active form there are changes in the primary and tertiary structure...
11. To have communication between cells, you must have a A) B) C) D) receptor. signaling molecule. responding cell. All of these choices are correct. 12. A cell that responds to an environmental condition by the release of a chemical is an example of which of the following elements of cellular communication? A) a signaling cell B) a signaling molecule C) a receptor protein D) a responding cell E) None of the other answer options is correct 13. A chemical...
You are interested in cell size regulation and discover that signaling through a GPCR is important in controlling cell size in rat white blood cells. The G protein downstream of this receptor activates adenylyl cyclase, which ultimately leads to the activation of PKA. You find that cells that lack the GPCR are 15% smaller than normal cells, whereas cells that express a mutant, constitutively activated version of PKA are 15% larger than normal cells. Furthermore, the normal blood cells become...
Please answer 2-5 2. Consider a gene with a particular function. Mutation X and mutation Y cach cause defects in the function of the encoded protein, yet a gene containing both mutations X and Y encodes a protein that works even better than the original protein. The odds are exceedingly small that a single mutational event will generate both mutations X and Y. Explain a simple way that an organism with a mutant gene containing both mutations X and Y...
ALL THE ANSWERS PLEASE! Pretend you have a disagreement with a surly lab partner some day, and as a result of the fray, you have received a scalpel cut to the arm. Your arm rapidly becomes inflamed, and after the course of many days, an infection develops. Luckily, the infection later clears up. Assuming the pathogen responsible was never previously encountered by your immune system, which sequence of events below best fits with what could have happened (not all of...
Question 10-12 10. During the mating process, yeast cells respond to pheromones secreted by other yeast cells. These pheromones bind GPCRs on the surface of the responding cell and lead to the activation of proteins inside the cell. When a wild-type yeast cell senses the pheromone, its physiology changes in preparation for mating: the cell stops growing until it finds a mating partner. If yeast cells do not undergo the appropriate response after sensing a pheromone, they are considered sterile....
Please help with answers to these questions answer the ones that are straightforward like this one Question 24 5 pts 1. Beta-catenin is classified as a proto-oncogene and APC is classified as a tumor suppressor gene. Both are important parts of the Wnt signaling pathway. Describe the relationship between beta-catenin and APC. Explain in detail why they are classified as a proto-oncogene or tumor suppressor gene. 2. Suppose you're working in a cancer research lab and discover a small molecule...

NK cells are effective against viral infections because many virus infected cells a. are susceptible to lysis b. are susceptible to phagocytosis c. show reduced levels of MHC class I molecules d. show reduced levels of MHC class II molecules e. none of the above 2. Arachidonic acid serves as a substrate in the lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase pathways resulting in the production of a. histamine, leukotrienes b. leukotrienes, prostaglandins...
Olfaction occurs when volatile compounds bind to specific odorant receptors. In mammals, each olfactory receptor neuron in the olfactory nasal epithelium expresses a single type of odorant receptor. These odorant receptors constitute a large multigene family (>1000 members) of related proteins. Binding of odorant induces a signaling cascade that is mediated via a G protein, Gaolf. Recent studies suggest that there are a small number of olfactory sensory neurons in the nasal epithelium that express members of the trace-amine associated...
