During exercise, protein synthesis in muscle cells stops. After exercise, protein synthesis starts again and contributes to the

growth of muscle caused by exercise. A study by Dreyer et al found that the protein 4E-BP1 is normally phosphorylated in muscle cells, but becomes dephosphorylated during exercise and phosphorylated again after exercise. The dephosphorylated form of 4E-BP1 can bind to elF4E to block its normal function. How might 4E-BP1 block protein synthesis during exercise?
A. 4E-BP1 binding to elF4E prevents release factors from binding to the A site of the ribosome.
B. 4E-BP1 binding to elF4E blocks the function of EF-Tu.
C. 4E-BP1 binding to elF4E makes the ribosome too big to translocate along the mRNA
D. 4E-BP1 binding to elF4E prevents loading of the mRNA onto the ribosome.

Answer:

D. 4E-BP1 binding to elF4E prevents loading of the mRNA onto the ribosome.

Explanation

In eukaryotic organisms, the eIF4E translation initiation factor functions by directing the ribosomes to the 5'-terminal cap structure of the messenger RNA (mRNA) in order to start the translation. Moreover, phosphorylation is a posttranslational modification of specific amino acids on proteins that play diverse cellular functions by altering protein stability, location, and/or enzymatic activity. It has been shown that elF4E phosphorylation is increased in response to cellular stimuli that induce translation in the ribosomes (e.g., growth factors, hormones, etc). The eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E)-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1) is a repressor of mRNA translation which is phosphorylated and inactivated by growth factors and hormones, thereby inhibiting 4E-BP1 binding to elF4E and consequently activating translation.

based on the number of ATP generated during the electron transport chain for every one glucose molecule, how many atp would be g
OleMash [197]

Answer:

If 10 glucose molecules are broken down, 320 ATP molecules will be generated during the electron transport chain.

Explanation:

In the electron transport chain, high energy electrons travel across a series of proteins embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane, releasing energy in the process.Hydrogen is pumped from the matrix into the intermembrane space, therefore an hydrogen ion gradient is formed across the inner membrane.These proton are then pumped back into the mitochondrial membrane where the synthesis of ATP from ATP synthase takes place.

In the electron transport chain, a total of 32 ATPs are generated per glucose molecule.

so if 10 glucose molecules are broken down:

1 glucose ⇒ 32 ATPs

10 glucose ⇒ 10*32

                       320 ATP molecules
