What is the cellular molecular most important points in the NEFL gene?
Homework Answers
NEFL gene encodes for the neurofilament light polypeptide subunit which forms type IV intermediate heteropolymers. These heteropolymers are the major component of neural cytoskeleton. NEFL gene has unusual intron-exon organization and has less introns (3 introns). NEFL encodes 62 kDa protein which is most abundant in cytoskeletal component of neural cells. It can associate with neurofilaments of NEFM and NEFH chain polypeptides and form fibrous network in neuron cytoplasm.
- Their function is to maintain neuronal caliber.
- It plays an important role in intracellular transport to axon and dendrites.
- Mutation in this gene cause Charcot-Marie- Tooth disease type 1F and 2E.

Lactate is an important metabolite in cellular metabolism in health and disease. Its molecular formula is CH3CH(OH)COO-, as seen in the figure below. The scalar coupling between protons A and B in the figure is 7Hz. The chemical shift of one of the proton groups is 4.1ppm and that the other is 1.3ppm. Assuming that the hydroxyl proton (the OH group) does not contribute to the spectrum (fast exchange with H2O protons), draw a schematic spectrum of the lactate ion...

The kinetic molecular theory establishes an important link between macroscopic and microscopic quantities. The most important link is probably between temperature (T) and average kinetic energy of molecules.a. For He gas, compute the average velocity of the atom at the temperature of 25oC.b. If He is replaced by Ar, what will be the corresponding velocity?c. It is known that the velocity of the gas molecules is not uniform, but conform to the MaxwellBoltzmann distribution. Depict graphically the velocity distributions of...
