Phosphatases are a family of enzymes that specifically remove phosphate groups from proteins that were added by protein kinases.

Vanadate is an inhibitor of phosphatases in eukaryotic cells. What effect would vanadate have on the response of cells to signals received by receptor kinases

Answer:

It will increase the cells response longer than the normal duration for response.

Explanation:

Generally phosphorylation by phosphatases  is important to protein structure.it brings about confrontational change in the protein structure, to create protein-protein interaction surfaces. The phosphate ion  in the phosphorylated   protein  regulate the formation of  hydrogen bonds among the amino acids residues in the surrounding  cells.

This brings about a confrontational change in the structure of protein, which enable the substrate to have access to active site of  the enzyme (phospatases),Therefore increasing catalytic actions for phosphorylated process.

Now if Vanadate inhibited phosphatases, phosphorylation of protein will be blocked. Confrontational change in the protein structure will not occur. Hydrogen bonds between  amino acid residues will not be present, thus the essential confrontational change which  create protein-protein interactions for  the cell response from protein kinases will be blocked, thus making cell to take longer time to respond

Therefore it will take longer time for the cell to response to  signals by receptor kinases.

Answer:

The cell response to the signal will last longer than normal.

Explanation:

The enzyme, protein kinases does the opposite of what phosphatases does, they add a phosphate group to a protein. Both these enzymes regulate the protein activity in a cell.

Describe how facilitated diffusion helps large molecules cross cell membranes. What kinds of proteins are involved?
Dima020 [189]

Yeah yeah so :D,

Large polar molecules can only cross the membrane with the help of protein named channel protein and carrier protein.

So, this both proteins act like a gate, the large molecules enter the protein and the protein let the large molecules in to the membrane. (see the picture so that you can understand more, its carrier protein)

the only difference between channel protein and carrier protein is, channel proteins has fixed shape while carrier protein can flip.
