Part D - The effect of gramicidin on oxidative phosphorylation When the protein gramicidin is integrated into a membrane, an H c

hannel forms and the membrane becomes very permeable to protons (H ions). If gramicidin is added to an actively respiring muscle cell, how would it affect the rates of electron transport, proton pumping, and ATP synthesis in oxidative phosphorylation

Answer:

The correct answer would be -

Remains the same: proton pumping rate, electron transport rate, rate of oxygen uptake.

Decreases or goes to zero: rate of ATP synthesis, size of protein gradient

Explanation:

An H+ channel forms and the membrane becomes very permeable to protons if the protein gramicidin is integrated into a membrane. If gramicidin is added to an actively respiring muscle cell, it will affect the in the following manner:

Remains the same:

proton pumping rate, electron transport rate, rate of oxygen uptake.

Decreases:

rate of ATP synthesis, size of protein gradient

None of these will show an increase due to the addition of gramicidin tlo actively respiring muscle cells.

Answer:

Hemangioma

Explanation:

Hemangioma usually refers to a non-cancerous type of tumor that occurs due to the abnormal growth of blood vessels. It can occur in any parts of the body, but they very are mostly present in the neck and he face portion. They can present right from the time of birth, but they usually develop in the body of the babies within the first few months after the birth of a baby.

It generally occurs in two types, namely-

What role do proteins play in enabling the enormous amount of dna in a eukaryotic cell?
MAVERICK [17]
DNA is condensed by a certain amount just on its own, just by its own interactions within the DNA molecule,..but whne proteins get involved it gets condensed 30000 fold 
<span>what happens is that proteins called histones are like hockey pucks, and DNA wraps around it 1.5 times and then goes to another histone and wraps around that so that it looks like beads on a string (i hope that makes sense, its the only way to describe it) </span>
<span>these histones condense this DNA a lot, and when the histones get methylated then the DNA packs together even closer to get heterochromatin (VERY densely packed DNA)...the theory here is that DNA has a net negative charge due to the phosphate groups in the DNA backbone and doesnt allow the DNA to come together as closely as it could (like charges repel like charges), but when histones are methylated, the negative charge on the DNA is masked by the methyl groups and DNA can come together closer </span>
