Chapter 4.5, Problem 3C
Summary Introduction
To explain: The sequences of events that must take place for a protein to be manufactured and then secreted from a cell.
Concept introduction: A cell is the smallest structural, functional, and biological unit of all living organisms. Cell has the capacity for self-replication, so it is often considered as “building blocks of life”. Eukaryotic cells are the types of cells that consist of membrane bound cell organelles present in their cytoplasm.

However, it is uncertain whether this is a protein that permanently stays in the nucleus or a shuttling protein that stays most of the time in the nucleus. One way to resolve this question is to perform the following steps: • Fuse the cells expressing the fluorescently labeled protein in their nucleus with the cells that are not expressing it. • Treat the cells with an inhibitor of protein synthesis to prevent the synthesis of more labeled proteins. • Observe for fluorescence in the fused cell with two nuclei. c. Why is it important to stop the synthesis of more of the labeled proteins?arrow_forwardExplain fully the ubiquitin proteosome systemarrow_forward
