TRNAS are 'charged' or activated by aminoacyl TRNA synthetases. Select the correct statements regarding this process. The process is dependent on interactions between ribosomes and aminoacyl TRNA synthetases. The aminoacid is added to the D-loop of the tRNA. Aminoacyl TRNA synthetases are pre-associated with tRNAS. The amino acid is attached to the terminal to the 3' hydroxyl of an adenine in the acceptor arm. The process requires an aminoacyl-adenylate intermadiate. QUESTION 19 Select the correct statements regarding myosin-mediated contraction the sarcomere. O Ca2+ is required for the binding of myosin to f-actin. Myosin and f-actin are randomly distributed in the sarcomere. Physical pulling of the actin microfilament requires three distinct conformation changes on myosin that involve ATP binding, ATP hydrolysis and sequential release of inorganic phosphate and ADP. Myosin-mediated contracted is ubiquitous across all cell types. O O O O
44. Mature human insulin is synthesized from a single Gene but contains two polypeptide chains (A and B) linked by disulfide bonds. Which of the following statements about the A and B chains provides the best explanation for the production of human insulin?a. They are identical and combine to form the mature insulin - A has 21 chains, Bhas 30b. They are produced by proteolytic processing of a single translation productC. They are the products of alternative translation-initiation sites on a single mRNAd. They are the product of a separate A- and B-chain mRNA produced byalternative splicing - would lead to protein diversitye. They are the products of separate A- and B-chain mRNA synthesized fromalternative promoters
