There are two distinct models for how the Golgi network functions that scientists have yet to unravel, mainly due to the lack of evidence unique to one model or the other. What are the two models for Golgi structure and how are they similar? Now suppose you were investigating these models, what is one piece of evidence you would look for it to support one of the models.

I am studying pancreatic islet cells and have isolated, cloned, and sequenced a novel protein that you postulate has 4 transmembrane segments. What kind of experiment would allow me to test this hypothesis that there are 4 trans membrane segments?
A useful technique for studying microtubule motors is to attach them by their tails to a glass coverslip (which can be accomplished quite easily because the tails stick avidly to a clean glass surface) and then allow them to settle. The microtubules may then be viewed in a light microscope as they are propelled over the surface of the coverslip by the heads of the motor proteins. Because the motor proteins attach at random orientations to the coverslip, however, how can they generate coordinated movement of individual microtubules rather than engaging in a tug-of-war? In which direction will microtubules crawl on a ‘bed’ of kinesin molecules (i.e., will they move plus-end first, or minus-end first)?
New treatments for several conditions are being developed using stem cells in medical waste, such as biopsy material, teeth, menstrual blood, umbilical cords, and fatty tissue removed in liposuction. For example, fat samples from injured horses are used to grow stem cells to treat tendon injuries. Explain how the two defining characteristics of stem cells enable them to be used to replace damaged or diseased tissue, so that the new tissue functions as opposed to forming a scar.
List and describe the three main types of cytoskeleton. If you wanted to do immunocytochemistry to specifically stain each type of cytoskeleton, what is a protein that could be used for each cytoskeletal type (in other words, what is a unique protein for each cytoskeletal type)? What are three types of actin structures? Describe the involvement of actin structures in cell migration. How is the growth and shrinking of microtubules regulated? Then describe the roles of microtubules in: chromosomal separation during mitosis and the movement of organelles and vesicles within a cell. Describe a possible mechanism on how signaling pathways might impact the cytoskeleton, so that cell migration could be regulated in a localized manner within a multicellular organism. (hint: think about the possible transcriptional regulation of the G-protein regulators) What are 2 main challenges of protein targeting? Then describe one way these challenges are overcome during signal-based targeting and one way…
What could be an example of in vitro experiment to identify cytoskeleton accessory proteins?
Draw a pair of antiparallel microtubules across the page. The following should be clarified or added: a. plus and minus ends clearly denoted on both microtubules b. the fact that each microtubule is a polymer of alpha+beta heterodimers must be denoted (with correct orientation) c. one microtubule is bound by a simple representation of plus-end directed motor protein. The motor protein should be named and representation indicates which direction it moves. d. one microtubule is bound by a simple representation of minus-end directed motor protein. The motor protein should be named and representation indicates which direction it moves.
There are 4 basic tissues in the human body. For each of the following organs/structures describe the location and function of at least three basic tissues found in them. Heart and stomach You have received GHS 1 million as a scientist to develop a vaccine for corona virus. You have been able to develop the vaccine but now the challenge is how the vaccine will enter the cells of the body when you inject it. From your knowledge of the structure of the cell membrane give and explain 2 features you can exploit in order for the vaccine to go across the cell membrane into the cell.
Below are three statements - two of which are truths and one is a lie. Which of the following statements is a lie? Select one: a. The main component of the plasma membrane is the phospholipid bilayer which is composed of hydrophilic heads and hydrophobic tails. b. Integral proteins also referred to as cell-specific proteins function as enzymes, as structural attachments to the fibers of the cytoskeleton, or as cell-recognition sites. c. The collective carbohydrates found on the cell's exterior surface is called glycocalyx which means "sugar coating".
"In most animal cells, minus end-directed microtubule motors deliver their cargo to the periphery of the cell, whereas plus end-directed microtubule motors deliver their cargo to the interior of the cell", is true or false.
Define the following terms:a. biotransformation reactionb. sarcoplasmic reticulumc. Golgi apparatusd. Golgi cisternae. exocytosis
You are interested in the mobility of two different unknown integral plasma membrane proteins—protein X and protein Y—in a cell. In one cell, you fluorescently label all the X proteins. In another cell, you label all the Y proteins. When you perform FRAP analysis on both cells, you find that most of the protein X fluorescence has recovered within 3 minutes, but recovery of the protein Y fluorescence is significantly slower. Even after 10 minutes, only 50% of the protein Y fluorescence has recovered. Describe the FRAP experimental protocol, explain what the results tell you about mobility of the X and Y proteins, and propose a possible explanation for why the mobilities of the two proteins differ.
A fluorescent molecule of 2000 daltons is microinjected into a single cell of an epithelial layer. When the layer is examined in a fluorescence microscope, the molecule remains confined to that cell. However, when a fluorescent molecule of 800 daltons is injected into a single cell of an epithelial layer, it quickly appears in the adjacent cells. Which of the following is responsible for the spread of the smaller molecule? 1. A) Desmosomes (maculae adherentes) 2. B) Focal contacts 3. C) Gap junctions 4. D) Intermediate junctions 5. E) Tight junctions (zonulae occludentes)
