- Which of the following describes a mechanism by which microtubules are known to be stabilized? Conformational changes undertaken by beta-tubulin as it hydrolyzes GTP. Binding of microtubule binding proteins, such as Tau. Shortening of the GTP cap. Increasing the proportion of alpha-tubulin subunits relative to beta-tubulin subunits.arrow_forwardRan is a major player in the process of nucleocytoplasmic transport via the nuclear pore. Because net Ran movement simply follows a concentration gradient, what maintains the Ran gradient across the nuclear membrane? Options: the concentration levels of cargo in the nucleus to be exported GTP concentrations in the nucleus the correct positioning of the GEF and GAP with respect to the nuclear envelope the interaction of exportin and importin with their cognate substrates none of the abovearrow_forwardList 4 proteins that have different regulatory actions in different cells resulting in cell specialization.arrow_forward

Membrane proteins may act as transporter, channel, receptors and cell identity markers. 2. Nucleolus contain digestive enzyme that aid cell renewal. 3. The vacuoles in animals are more common and bigger than with plants and bacteria. 4. Chlorophyll is the solar energy-capturing organelle derived from photosynthetic bacteria. 5. Proteins embedded on the plasma membrane may also transport some molecules to and outside the cell. 6. Nuclear envelope is a double membrane with pores that separates the nucleus from the rest of the cell. 7. Eukaryotic cells are considered the first cell type on Earth and are the cell type of bacteria and archaea. 8. Cell wall surrounds plasma membrane which is common among plants, fungi and many protists. 9. Ribosomes direct the synthesis of RNA. 10. The cytoskeleton is a network of interconnected membranes that helps move substances within the cell.arrow_forward
