Advanced Cell Biology II – Homework # 1 Step 1: Determine which GPCRs are associated with the peach scent. (3.5 pts) Insert the cDNA of all the olfactory GPCRs into E. coli and purify out all the olfactory GPCR proteins. For each GPCR protein‚ have one control reaction with just the GPCR‚ and one experimental reaction where the GPCR is incubated with the peach extract. Do this for all the olfactory GPCRs. Run all the samples on a gel. If a compound in the peach extract is the ligand for a specific

An overview of the nervous and endocrine systems‚ their functions and how together they regulate homeostasis The endocrine system is the internal system of the body that deals with chemical communication by means of hormones‚ the ductless glands that secrete the hormones‚ and those target cells that respond to hormones. The endocrine system functions in maintaining the basic functions of the body ranging from metabolism to growth. The endocrine system functions in long term behavior and works

Scheduler Xiaoxiao Zhang‚ Student Member‚ IEEE‚ Farid Boussaid‚ Senior Member‚ IEEE‚ and Amine Bermak‚ Fellow‚ IEEE Abstract— In this paper‚ we present a multiprecision (MP) reconfigurable multiplier that incorporates variable precision‚ parallel processing (PP)‚ razor-based dynamic voltage scaling (DVS)‚ and dedicated MP operands scheduling to provide optimum performance for a variety of operating conditions. All of the building blocks of the proposed reconfigurable multiplier can either work as

Physiology Linder Unit 1 Possible Essay Questions Chapter 1 1. Describe the concept of homeostasis. Explain how negative feedback and positive feedback loops effect the homeostatic condition. Use examples to explain your answer. Homeostasis can be described as maintaining a relatively internal environment even though the external environment is variable. Negative feedback loops effect the homeostatic condition by controlling it by bringing you back to your set point

Introduction First discovered as the major signal transducer in interferon-mediated gene activation‚ STATs (signal transducers and activators of transcription) are now known to play a significant role in signal transduction for most cytokines. STATs represent a family of conserved proteins‚ seven of which have been identified in mammals (i.e.‚ Statl‚ 2‚ 3 ‚ 4 ‚ Say5b‚ and 6;

Chapter 15 Signal Transduction 1) Endocrine‚ paracrine ‚ autocrine signaling‚ and cell-cell contact (Fig. 15-2). Endocrine signaling is long distance signaling. An example would be pancreatic cells secreting insulin. Paracrine signaling is for close proximity. An example would be a nerve cell releasing neurotransmitters. In autocrine signaling the cell that produces the ligand also contains the receptor for that ligand. This is how cancer cells work. In signaling by plasma membrane attached
