Bio 151 Rounds Discussion 7 fall 2023 Discussion 7 Protein Trafficking and folding Names, day and time: Team portion: Please note that the team portion is worth 7 points this week and the individual is only worth 3. 1. Receptors for intercellular signals (like insulin) are proteins and must be trafficked to the cell surface through the endomembrane system. If the extracellular portion (which binds the signal) of the protein is folded from the first 150 amino acids (N-terminus) of the protein that are translated (the protein is 800 amino acids long) and there is a single transmembrane domain between amino acid 150 and 300, draw how the protein would be configured in the endoplasmic reticulum AND at the plasma membrane. Be sure to indicate the N and C termini. (1.5 points) 1
Bio 151 Rounds Discussion 7 fall 2023 2. A protein (the squiggles below) is inserted into ER microsomes (little isolated balls of ER). The proteins are either untreated (in the first lane) or have had a non-membrane permeant protease outside the microsome (just like in class) added (all the other lanes). Which lane represents which microsome ( 1.5 point ) 3. There’s a 100 kD protein (1000 amino acids ~10 a.a. per kD). Place the following bands on the gel. (kD is a measure of protein mass). (2 points) lane 1 -- wt Lane 2 MT1-- an in frame mutation from UCG → UAG U=nucleotide 1500 (3 nt’s per codon). Lane 3 MT2-- a deletion of the final nucleotide in this codon: UGA → UG__ at the final codon. Lane 4 MT3 -- a mutation of the codon CAC → CAU at nucleotide 1000 4. In the peptide below: Put a square around a hydrophobic R-group. (1 point) 2
