HMB310H1 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Council Of Science Editors, Transmembrane Protein, Reverse Transcriptase
Document Summary
Micropipettes and spectrophotometer: animal cell culture. Rna isolation, reverse transcription, hybridization: computer simulations/data handling. Introduction provide enough background information to clarify. No interpretation unless combined with discussion: discussion. Other findings in light of other published work, the validity and limitations of observations. Final conclusions, possible significance of the work: reference hmb310 has cse style citation-sequence. Action potential: basis of neural activity resting potential and action potential. Ion an atom or molecule in which total number of electrons is not equal to total number of protons, giving the atom a net positive/negative electrical charge. Ion channels allow passage of ions between intra- and extracellular space: nerve cell membrane lipids and proteins. Bilayer of lipids hydrophilic heads face out, hydrophobic tails face in. Proteins some face extracellular, some face intracellular, some span the membrane. Ion channels transmembrane protein structures: when channel opens, ions move passively (concentration gradient) through. What forces move ions in neurons: diffusion force.
