Start codon (AUG) Stop(nonsense) codons (UAA,UGA,UAG)
10
Medical
Protein synthesis begins with methionine (met) in eukaryote Begin with formylmethionine (fmet) in prokaryotes
9
Medical
All amino acid have more than one codon except Met and Trp
8
Medical
In sickle cell anemia we have missense mutation Glu->Val Glutamate->valen Vasoclosive crisis and hemolysis can actually happen because of it
6
Medical
Mutations Silent mutation, missense mutation (sickle-cell) Nonsense mutation, (stop) frameshift mutation,( 1-2piece deletion or addition )
5
Medical
Mutations Large segment deletion-> α thalesmia Splice site - β thalesmia Triplet repeat expansion -> Huntington disease , miotonic dystrophy ,fragile x ,friedrech ataxia
5
Medical
Huntington disease : autosomal dominant mean age 43 to 48 symptoms : hyperreflexia 1st, mood disturbance ,memory\/ , abnormal gait, dysphagia , dementia
3
Medical
In proteins the peptide bond is between the carboxyl group and The amino group
3
Medical
Prokaryotic translation inhibitors are Striptomycin , Erythromycin , tetracycline ,chloramphenicol
3
Medical
Eukaryotic translation inhibitors cycloheximide , diphtheria toxins ,pseudomonas toxins
3
Medical
Grey baby syndrome symptoms : blue lips nailbeds and skin (cyanosis )death, Low blood pressure Trigger :chloramphenicol (antibiotic against meningitis)
4
Medical
DNA replication Unwinding :helicase Stabilization :SSB Synthesis of RNA Primers :primase Synthesis of DNA : polymrase ||| (prokaryotes) polymrase α , δ (Eukaryote)
4
Medical
Removal of RNA (Prokaryotes DNA POLYMRASE 1)(eukaryotes RNAase H) Replacement of RNA (Prokaryotes DNA POLYMRASE 1)(eukaryotes ) Joining of OkaZaki fragments ligase
2
Medical
Rnap1:rRNA (nucleolus) except 5s RNAP2:(nucleoplasm)hnRNA/mRNA some snRNA RNAP3:(nucleoplasm)tRNA,5S rRNA TFIID bind before RNA polymerase RNAP2 inhibited by α-amanitin(mushrooms)
2
Medical
Prokaryotes RNA α2ββ polymerase Requires sigma σ to initiate a promoter Requires rho ρ to terminate (sometime) Inhibited by rifampin and actinomycin D
2
Medical
Ubiquitin helps proteasomes
2
Medical
|-cell disease happens due to genetic defect in the phosphorylation of the protein oligosaccharide chain Symptoms- Gingival hyperplasia Scoliosis Lysosomes in blood Mitral valve defect
3
Medical
Collagen 1 - bone skin tendons (osteogenesis imperfecta+Enhler-danlos) 2-cartilage vitreous humor 3-vessels granulation tissue (enhler-danlos4+keloid formation) 4-basement membrane (good paasture+aplort+epidermolysis bullosa)
2
Medical
Scurvy Deficient hydroxylation secondary to ascorbate(c) deficiency Symptoms Loose teeth Bleed gum Poor wound healing Poor bone development
3
Medical
Osteogenesis imperfecta Due to mutation in collagen type 1 genes Symptoms Skeletal deformities fractures Blue Sclera
2
Medical
Ehlers-danlos syndrome Due to a defect in the 1 and 3 collagen genes Symptoms Hyper extensible fragile skin hypermobile joints Dislocation Varicose veins ecchymoses arterial and intestinal ruptures
3
Medical
Fibrates and thiazolidinediones(DM2) are used to do lower serum TGs
2
Medical
Fibrates activate PPARα Thiazolidinediones activate PPARγ PPARs R transcription factors ,thy bind to PPRES and regulate lipid metabolism PP stands for peroxisome proliferator (Zinc finger)
2
Medical
NFKB (nuclear factor kappa-b)is a specific transcription factor that binds to KB elements in the DNA to initiate inflammatory response It's inhibited by glucocorticoid Glucocorticoid \/ signaling
2
Medical
Zellweger syndrome a genetic disease caused by mutation in genes involved in peroxisome biogenesis which lead to fat accumulation Symptoms:- Enlarged liver high levels of Cu and Fe vision problems, failure to grow retardation,die within a year
3
Medical
Klein-waardenburg syndrome is due to mutation in the PAX gene which is responsible for the right time of fetal development Symptoms:- Limb abnormality Defense Pigmentary abnormality Distopia cnthorum (lateral displacement of the eye inner corner)
3
Medical
Thalidomide is morning sickness treatment used for pregnant woman In th 60s it prevent the binding of the homeodomain protein to the enhancer portion which lead to limp abnormality
2
Medical
Focomelia is limb abnormality caused by thalidomide
2
Medical
Ζn finger protein All steroid hormones ( estrogen cortisol..) Thyroid hormone (lipid) Vitamin A,D
2
Medical
Glucagon is peptide hormone doesn't go inside the cell , its activate cAMB which activate CREB(cAMB response element binding)protein
2
Medical
In Cushing syndrome we have ^cortisol which lead to hyperglycemia which lead to^insulin which lead to hyperlipidemia
3
Medical
Blood -cells=plasma Plasma - clotting factor = serum
2
Medical
Osmolality =300
2
Medical
Major fluid loss treatment is isotonic saline "normal saline"
2
Medical
Hypertonic solutions infusion will cause seizures , CNS abnormalities ~>death
2
Medical
Loss of isotonic fluid due to hemorrhage,diarrhea,vomiting will lead to only ECF Volume decreasing
2
Medical
Loss of hypotonic fluid due to dehydration, diabetes insipidus , alcoholism will lead to ECF volume decreases Osmolality increase ICF volume decrease
1
Medical
Gaining isotonic fluid increases ECF volume only
1
Medical
Gaining of hypotonic saline or water intoxication will lead to ECF volume ^ Osmolality \/ ICF volume ^
1
Medical
Gaining of hyper tonic fluid(mannitol) will lead to ECF volume ^ Osmolality ^ ICF volume \/
1
Medical
Only arteriole control the blood flow "thy constrict"
2
Medical
Starling equation Qf=k[(Pc+DELTAif)-(Pif+DELTAc)] Delta=oncotic pressure P= hydrostatic pressure
1
Medical
Edema causes Pc^ -blood flow^e.g.,vasodilation Venues pressure ^e.g.,venous obstruction or heart failure Blood volume ^(Na retention)e.g.,heart failure
1
Medical
Edema causes 2 Oncotic if ^ due to thyroid disfunction (non pitting) Oncotic c \/ :- -liver failure -nephrotic syndrome
2
Medical
Edema causes 3 Increased capillary permeability (k) Circulating agents :- TNF alpha,bradykinin ,histamine burn.. Fluid ^
1
Medical
Pulmonary edema Cardiogenic due to ^left arterial pressure always have elevated wedge pressure treated with diuretic Non cardiogenic due to injury to alveolar epithelium or to capillaries causes are sepsis or aspiration pneumonia wedge pressure is low or normal
