Chapter 24, Problem 24.9PS

(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The way in which given treatment would be expected to stimulate or inhibit apoptosis.

Introduction: The given situation is “Cells are treated with a small molecule called pifithrin-a, which was originally isolated for its ability to reversibly block p53-dependent transcriptional activation”.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To explain: The way in which given treatment would be expected to stimulate or inhibit apoptosis.

Introduction: The given situation is “Exposing cells to recombinant TRAIL protein, a ligand for the tumor necrosis factor family of receptors”.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To explain: The way in which the given treatment would be expected to stimulate or inhibit apoptosis.

Introduction: The given situation is “Treatment of cells with organic compounds that enter the cell and bind with high affinity to the active site of caspase-3.”.

true or false? And why it is false For the actin cytoskeleton, diverse cell-surface receptors trigger global structural rearrangements in response to external signals. But all these signals seem to converge inside the cell on a group of closely related monomeric GTPases that are members of the Rho protein family—Cdc42, Ras, and Rho. The same Rho family proteins are also involved in the establishment of many kinds of cell polarity.
Disdis -how do RB and p53 negatively regulate the cell cycle in G1? describe the events that occur in the initiation and elongation of DNA replication in S phase.
Question:- Describe the path a cell surface receptor will take when being synthesized (starting at the beginning of translation) to its expression on the plasma membrane; indicate the orientation of the receptor and any other processing that is undergoes. Describe the different possible fates of a receptor once it is internalized by receptor-mediated endocytosis.
