100
Creates concentration gradients for Sodium and Potassium.
What is the Sodium Potassium Pump?
100
The subunit of a G protein protein that is active when bound to GTP.
What is alpha subunit?
100
Phase in the cell cycle when DNA is replicated.
What is the S phase?
100
Enzymes that remove phosphate groups from substrate
What is phosphatase?
200
It's the ion responsible for neurotransmitter secretion in response to an action potential.
What is calcium?
200
Signal molecule that causes cell to carryout an action.
What is a first messenger?
200
Two identical chromatids that are formed by replication of a chromosome, are joined by a centromere
What are sister chromatids?
200
Can halt cell division in both the G1 and G2 phases of the cell division cycle
What is p53?
300
Ion responsible for depolarization during an Action Potential.
What is Sodium?
300
Generated by adenylyl cyclase and activates PKA.
What is cAMP?
300
The nucleus envelope breaks down during this stage.
What is prophase?
300
predefined cell suicide, where the cell actively destroys itself by shrinking, maintaining a smooth functioning in the body
What is apoptosis?
400
Molecules that diffuse passively across the plasma membrane.
What are hydrophobic molecules?
400
Proteins that link intracellular signaling cascades activated by receptor tyrosine kinases
What are Ras proteins?
400
Stage in mitosis where each pair of chromosomes is separated and pulled toward opposite ends.
What is Anaphase?
400
Drive the events of the cell cycle by partnering with a family of enzymes called the cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks)
What are cyclins?
500
Transporter that allows for the transport of Glucose into the intestinal epithelium.
What is the Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter?
500
Produces the second messengers Inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and Diacylglycerol (DAG).
What is Phospholipase C?
500
The principal microtubule-organizing center seen in mitosis.
What is the centrosome?
500
Membrane channels that mediate the cell-to-cell movement of ions and small metabolites
What are gap junctions?
