An actin-binding protein called cofilin binds preferentially to ADP-containing actin filaments rather than ATP-containing actin

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

Cofilin binds to older actin filaments

Explanation:

Microfilaments (also called actin filaments) are a class of protein filament common to all eukaryotic cells, which consist of two strands of subunits of the protein actin. Microfilaments form part of the cell's cytoskeleton and interact with the protein myosin in order to allow the movement of the cell. Within the cell, actin may show two different forms: monomeric G-actin and polymeric F-actin filaments. Microfilaments provide shape to the cell because these filaments can depolymerize (disassemble) and polymerize (assembly) quickly, thereby allowing the cell to change its shape. During the polymerization process, the ATP that is bound to G-actin is hydrolyzed to ADP, which is bound to F-actin. ATP-actin subunits are present at the barbed ends of the filaments, and cleavage of the ATP molecules produces highly stable filaments bound to ADP. In consequence, it is expected that cofilin binds preferentially to highly stable (older) filaments ADP-actin filaments instead of ATP-actin filaments.

Which food molecule (monosaccharide, polysaccharide, lipid, or protein) would you eat if...

torisob [31]

<span>You needed a quick boost of energy - MONOSACCHARIDE

You wanted to grow strong nails, you haven't eaten in days - PROTEIN

You wanted to grow healthy hair - PROTEIN

You had a race tomorrow afternoon - POLYSACCHARIDE

You were getting ready for hibernation - LIPIDS

You wanted to get bigger muscles - PROTEIN

Your meal will be in a week - LIPIDS

CARBOHYDRATES include monosaccharide and polysaccharides. They provide immediate energy boost or short term energy storage for animals as well as long term energy storage for plants.

PROTEIN s</span>peeds up chemical reactions by lowering activation energy. It is used to form bones and build muscles. It is m<span>ade up of an amino group, a carboxyl group, and an R group.

LIPIDS can be saturated or unsaturated fatty acids. They are not soluble in water however they provide long-term energy storage for animals. </span>

Name the quadrant(s) (RUQ, LUQ, RLQ, and LLQ) and region(s) (right hypochondriac, epigastric, left hypochondriac, right lumbar,

andreev551 [17]

Answer:Answer: 1) (a) The left lobe of the Liver is located in Left Upper Quadrant while the main part of the Liver is located in the Right Upper Quadrant.

(b) The liver is located in both the right hypochondriac region and the epigastric region

2) (a) The stomach is is located in the Left Upper Quadrant (LUQ)

(b) The stomach is majorly located in the epigastric region and the Left Hypochondriac Region.

3) (a)The Spleen is located at the Left Upper Quadrant (LUQ)

(b) The regions the Spleen are located at are the Left Hypochondriac Region, Epigastric Region and Left Lumbar

4) (a) The Gall Bladder is located at the Right Upper Quadrant

(b) The Gall Bladder is located at the Right Hypochondriac Region and the Right Lumbar Region.

5) (a)The Appendix is located in the Right Lower Quadrant

(b) The Appendix is located in the Right Iliac region.

6) (a) The Left kidney is located at the Left Upper Quadrant

(b) The left kidney cuts across the Left Hypochondriac Region, Right Lumbar and the Left Lumbar.

7) (a) The right Ovary is located at the Right Lower Quadrant

(b) The region of the right ovary is the hypogastric region.

8) (a) The Uterus is located at both the Right Lower Quadrant and Left Lower Quadrant.

(b) The Uterus is located in the hypogastric region of the abdomen.

Explanation: In medicine, the practitioners divide the lower part of the body known as the 'abdomen' with imaginary lines ( one vertical and one horizontal) to form the 'Quadrants' and (two vertical and two horizontal) the 'Regions'. The Quadrants are divided into four main parts:

1) Left Upper Quadrant (LUQ)

2) Right Upper Quadrant (RUQ)

3) Left Lower Quadrant (LLQ)

4) Right Lower Quadrant (RLQ)

The regions are divided into nine parts:

1) Left Hypochondriac Region

2) Right Hypochondriac Region

3) Epigastric Region

4) Left Lumbar Region

5) Right Lumbar Region

6) Umbilical Region

7) Right Iliac/Inguinal Region

8) Left Iliac/Inguinal Region

9) Hypogastric Region.

The abdomen is divided into regions in order to help medical practitioners and students easily understand the abdominal area of the body as well as the human anatomy. It also helps them provide preliminary diagnosis and treatment based on pain emanating from each region or quadrant.

Thalidomide was a druggiven to pregnant women in the early

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Thalidomide may be defined as a type of the sedative drug that in the earlier time referred for the pregnant ladies. This drug causes the world wide tragedy and acts as a teratogen.

This drug causes mutation in the fetus. The Ames test is effective to understand the mutagenicity of the drug. In this test, if the auxotrophic strain of the bacteria is grown on the the deficient media containing thalidomide drug. The bacteria growth indicates the positive Ames test and the substance is considered as mutagen.
