QUESTION 11 What property of the voltage-gated potassium channels allows K ions to pass? O a. Two polypeptide subunits are synthesized when the membrane is depolarized, allowing K+ ions to pass. O b. Depolarization causes the subunits to temporarily disintegrate so that K* ions can pass through the membrane O c. The voltage-gated potassium channels open when the polypeptide subunits are disinhibited O d. Depolarization causes the four polypeptide subunits specific to the voltage-gated K channel to twist into a shape that allows K ions to pass QUESTION 12 Why does ACh slow the heart rate? O a.

Proteins

We generally tend to think of proteins only from a dietary lens, as a component of what we eat. However, they are among the most important and abundant organic macromolecules in the human body, with diverse structures and functions. Every cell contains thousands and thousands of proteins, each with specific functions. Some help in the formation of cellular membrane or walls, some help the cell to move, others act as messages or signals and flow seamlessly from one cell to another, carrying information.  

Protein Expression

The method by which living organisms synthesize proteins and further modify and regulate them is called protein expression. Protein expression plays a significant role in several types of research and is highly utilized in molecular biology, biochemistry, and protein research laboratories.
