Surprisingly, in a number of reactions in which either ATP or GTP are involved, the critical event is not due to the hydrolysis

of the triphosphate, but to its binding. Nevertheless, in which of the following processes is hydrolysis directly involved?
a. release of myosin from actinb. activation of G proteinsc. formation of COPII vesiclesd. phosphorylation of glucosee. transport through the nuclear pore

Answer:

The correct answer is option d. "phosphorylation of glucose".

Explanation:

The phosphorylation of glucose is one of the most important catabolic reactions that allow to obtain energy from sugars. This reaction is the first step of glycolysis and avoid cells to lose sugars by diffusing back to its transporter. The phosphate used to phosphorylate glucose comes from the hydrolysis of one of the three phosphate of adenosine triphosphate. Therefore, phosphorylation of glucose is a processes where ATP hydrolysis is directly involved.

Cite the three main types of RNA and describe briefly the function of each.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

mRNA: Carry genetic information from DNA to protein; serve as template for protein synthesis.

tRNA: Serves as adapter molecule and deliver specific amino acid from the cell pool to the mRNA-ribosome complex.

rRNA: Structural component of ribosomes.

Explanation:

There are three types of nongenetic RNAs: mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA.  

1. The messenger RNA (mRNA) is formed by the process of transcription in the nucleus. Transcription uses template strand of DNA to specify the nucleotide sequence in mRNA. The mRNA enters cytoplasm to join ribosomes. The nucleotide sequence of mRNA serves as a template and specifies the amino acid sequence of proteins.  

2. The transfer RNA (tRNA) serves as an adapter molecule during the process of protein synthesis and binds to the specific amino acids to deliver them to the protein-synthesizing machinery. The anticodon of tRNA binds to the complementary mRNA codons.  

3. The ribosomal RNA (rRNA) serves as structural components for ribosomes. Each of the subunits of ribosomes is made up of rRNA and proteins.
