Molecular Cell Biology – Spring 2013 Study Guide – Exam #3 Protein Folding & Post-translational Modifications -What are post-translational modifications? - are modifications that a proteins undergoes to achieve its mature state. Such as cutting‚ folding‚ splicing and other processes. -How do proteins achieve their final conformation? - A protein achieves its final conformation by spontaneously folding. All the information that the protein needs as to how to fold is already located

ent chemicals are added to each other. Procedure This experiment involved placing drops of specified chemicals into a well on a 96well plate. Each well number was recorded along with question number and name of chemicals involved. Two drops of a chemical were placed in a well along with two drops of another chemical. Chemical reactions and color changes were recorded in Data Table 1. Observations During the experiments a few problems were encountered. One of the chemicals provided differed

The Feeding Behavior of the Protist known as Tetrahymena vorax Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to study the rate of phagocytosis of the specific protist known as Tetrahymena vorax. This certain kind of protist feeds at a normal rate when conditions are normal. We began the experiment of understanding how Tetrahymena feeds at normal temperatures. Doing so‚ we allowed the Tetrahymena to feed at specific time limits and then killed the protist with gluderaldheyde to detect how much

succinate to fumarate‚ thus loses hydrogen ions and electrons for use in generating ATP. It is important to know what inhibitors affect the activity of this enzyme which eventually will affect the whole process of cellular respiration. In this experiment‚ 1M Malonate( CH2(COO)22-) and 0.1M of Sodium Fluoride (NaF) ‚were employed as inhibitors to the enzyme succinate dehydrogenase to assess their effect on cellular respiration. Malonate is a molecule that inhibits the oxidization of succinate. Besides

Procedure: I have a well-plate-96‚ a piece of white and black paper‚ and the chemicals from the Observation of Chemical Changes Experiment Bag. I used a different well for each combination of solutions. I placed two drops of one chemical then two drops of a different chemical. Observation: NaHCO3 and HCl - Clear bubbles; bubbles did not fizz. HCl and BTB- Color changes to orange

Tomato Sweetness Jessica Pursell American InterContinental University 01/18/2015 Biology IP2 Introduction You and your neighbor have small kitchen gardens where you both grow tomatoes. His blotchy green and red tomatoes taste much sweeter than your perfectly uniform red ones. Could the sweetness of the tomatoes be effected by the green chloroplasts in the fruit? Hypothesis I personally think that the green chloroplasts do play a part in the sweetness of the tomatoes because it doesn’t
