Question asked by Filo student

You are analyzing the sequence for a group of proteins, comparing normal cells and cells exposed to a mutation-inducing agent. The sequence for all of the proteins is littered with incorrect amino acids, but all of them are in the correct reading frame otherwise and display the expected length. Which of the following proteins, if mutated, might help explain the sequence changes observed?

  1. Elongation Factor G (EF-G)
  2. Initiation Factor 4e (eIF4e)
  3. Elongation Factor-Tu (EF-Tu)
  4. Initiation Factor 2 (eIF2)

What is the correct order of the action potential of autorhythmic cardiomyocytes? Calcium leak leads to activation of voltage-gated calcium channels. Calcium influx then raises the charge to activate T-type and L-type action potentials, which depolarize the cell. Sodium leak leads to activation of voltage-gated T-type calcium channels. Calcium influx then raises the charge to activate L-type action potentials, which depolarize the cell. Potassium leak leads to activation of voltage-gated L-type calcium channels. Calcium influx then raises the charge to activate T-type action potentials, which depolarize the cell. Sodium leak leads to activation of voltage-gated potassium channels. Potassium influx then raises the charge to activate L-type action potentials, which depolarize the cell.

Genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics. Introduction: The genome of an organism is defined as the whole genetic information that is inherited from one generation to the next generation. It includes the protein-coding genes, non–protein-coding genes, regulatory genes, chloroplast DNA, and mitochondrial DNA. The human genome consists of about 2.5 billion gens of which only 20,000 genes are protein-coding genes.
