100

Protein factor with kinase domain needed to push RNA poll II down the DNA template and start transcription.

What is TFIIH

100

Protein that binds to poly A tail to indicate that the mRNA is ready to leave the nucleus.

What is the poly A binding protein?

100

A low Km and high K value.

What is tight binding of the substrate/ little substrate needed for reaching maximum catalytic rate of reaction?

100

ATP binding to a site other than the active site on phosphofructokinase causing the active site to not bind substrate as well. 

What is negative allosteric linkage?

100

Protein has many hydrophobic regions forming 'start' and 'stop' signals. 

What is a multipass membrane protein?

200

Sequence needed to terminate transcription by signaling cleavage factors in eukaryotes.

What is AAUAAA?

200

Ribozyme for forming new peptide bond of growing polypeptide chain.

What is peptidyl transferase?

200

Misfolded proteins that contain parallel beta-pleated sheets and can spread to cause other proteins to misfold and cause disease.

What are prion proteins?

200

When enough pyruvate is made through glycolysis, pyruvate can act as an allosteric regulator to shut off the pathway. 

What is feedback regulation?

200

Protein that binds to both the hydrophobic signal sequence and stalls translation by binding to the A site of the ribosome.

What is the SRP.

300
The two proteins needed for export of mRNA out of the nucleus.

What are poly A binding proteins and nuclear transport receptor?

300

Anticodon of initiator tRNA.

What is 5' CAU 3' ?

300

Magnesium for polymerases to help form the charge needed to bind to nucleic acids.

What are cofactors?

300
Protein is destroyed due to E3 ubiquitin ligase is adding ubiquitin molecules to lys 48 of each other. 

What is the proteasome?

300

Sec 62 and Sec 63 are required along with Bip to 'pull' proteins into the ER lumen.

What is post-translation into the ER. 

400

Very first transcription factor to bind to the promoter for formation of the transcription initiation complex in eukaryotes.

What is TFIID with the TBP?

400

Pathway name for mRNAs with exon junction proteins after the stop codon. 

What is non-sense mediated decay?

400
Proteins may have dissimilar amino acid sequence but with regions that have similar amino acid chemical groups, fold similarly, and perform the same function. 

What are domains?

400

Enzyme activity of TFIIH that adds phosphates to the C-terminal domain of RNA pol II.

What is a kinase?

400

Proteins like the small subunit of RUBISCO needed for photosynthesis but with the gene in the nucleus of the host plant cell need to pass through these translocators.

What are TIC and TOC?
500

Added to the 5' end of the new transcript to prevent nucleases from destroying it as soon as transcription begins.

What is the guanine cap?

500

Protein that binds to incoming aminoacyl-tRNA and will not dissociate until the GTP is hydrolyzed to GDP which only happens if the 18s rRNA of small subunit binds strongly to codon and matching anticodon of the incoming tRNA.

What is EF1?

500

Regions that do not have distinct secondary structure and usually act as hinges.

What are IDR - intrinsically disordered regions?

500

Protein that binds to other proteins to help assemble them for catalytic activities. 

What is a scaffolding protein?

500

Most proteins that function in the ER, Gogli, lysozome, cell membrane or exterior to the cell, and/ or require modification such as glycosylation, disulfide bridges, GPI anchor go through this process to get into the ER. 

What is co-translation?
