Discuss how defective G protein function is associated with cholera.

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

The function of G-Protein’s become defective and abnormal after the addition ADP-ribose to the G protein by the A sub unit. this phenomenon is called as ADP-ribosylation which result in the permanent activation of G-protein . When the G-Protein become active, the enzyme adenyl cyclase converts ATP into cAMP. Increase concentration in the cAMP blocks the transportation of sodium from the lumen into the bloodstream. the amount of Chloride and bicarbonate also increases. Due to the continuous increase of the ions, water moves into by osmosis from the bloodstream and cholera occurs.

During dna replication, the two strands separate as the ____________ bonds connecting the parent strands are broken by an enzyme

Setler79 [48]

During DNA replication, the two strands separate as the hydrogen bonds connecting the parent strands are broken by an enzyme called helicase. In the DNA molecule (double strand) complementary bases are joined by hydrogen bonds; that is; Adenine paired to thyamine and guanine to cytosine; during replication the enzyme helicase separates the double helix by breaking the hydrogen bonds between the complementary bases.
