ER bound ribosomes - The glycosylated nicotonic acetylcholine receptors are those which are glycosylated by addition of a glycosyl molecule. This is basically attached to the hydroxyl group and hence helps in enzyme directed reaction in the body. The glycosylation reaction is something that takes place in the endoplasmic reticulum and hence it takes place on the ribosome that is present on the ER.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
As the protein or receptor started its synthesis process in the ER, the production of the polypeptide starts on the ribosome that is bound to the ER. Once the receptor is formed, it is glycosylated with a glycosyl molecule which acts as signal for its next process which is transport to the Golgi apparatus in form of vesicle. When it reaches the Golgi apparatus, it is further processed and packaged so that it becomes ready for the transport into the plasma membrane. Once the complete packaging is done, it is transferred with help of vesicles into the plasma membrane where it is fused.
The nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are transmembrane protein found in the plasma membrane of human neurons. You...
Membrane-bound receptors are an important component facilitating some types of cellular communication; however, not all signal-receptor binding occurs outside the cell membrane. Some signal molecules are able to pass through the plasma membrane, and their receptors are intracellular. In a theoretical lab study, scientists work to design a lab experiment that would inhibit some molecules’ ability to bind with their intracellular receptors. (a) Draw conclusions about the structure and function of membrane proteins. (b) Identify some molecules that are able...
1. You want to immunolabel a low abundance expressed transmembrane receptor in the plasma membrane in epithelial cells. Describe the process you would do to label by immune-labeling with fluorescence this protein? Be specific in your answer 3 pts 2. Based on your knowledge of fluorophores and reading of the spectra of dyes, answer this question. You immunolabeled two proteins found close together in muscle fiber sarcomeres by immunofluorescence and a toxin conjugated fluorophore. You need to next show the...
please answer all that you can 1. You have genetically engineered green fluorescent protein (GFP) containing a KDEL sequence (GFP-KDEL). When GFP-KDEL is expressed in normal human fibroblasts and examined using fluorescence microscopy, the fluorescence appears diffuse across the cytoplasm. How would you explain this observations given that KDEL is supposed to be an ER-specific sorting sequence? A. This engineered GFP would not have a hydrophobic signal sequence to get it into the RER in the first place. B. The...
Name 2ors L! You are inte finding protein are interested in understanding how Top5 expression is regulated. Top5 is a microtubule protein. You study a cell line where Top5 expression is controlled by a signal, Ligl. When hinds to and activates the membrane bound recentor it activates the Ras protein, which activates atein kinase called PKF, which then phosphorylates Grp4 on T224. Grp4 is a gene regulatory Wotein that can only enter the nucleus when phosphorylated: Thos is not expressed...

The secondary messenger would be made constantly. b. The cells would have more energy availability due to higher GTP binding. c. The secondary messenger would not be made. O d. The primary messenger would not be able to bind to...
