IMED1001 Study Guide - Final Guide: Autophagosome, Autophagy, Bloodborne
Document Summary
Neutralize free radicals, detoxify alcohol, other drugs, and a variety of blood-borne toxins. Break down fatty acids into acetyl groups. Clear old/damaged proteins and organelles to provides the cell with building blocks for renewal. Contain enzymes that break down targeted tagged (with ubiquitin) proteins into short peptides and amino acids. They form, then engulf cellular contents, such as damaged proteins and organelles. Fuses with the lysosome, where the contents are degraded into smaller constituents. Matrix contains ribosomes, enzymes used for atp synthesis. Membrane proteins that use h+ to add a high energy phosphate to adp atp. Energy from organic molecules is extracted and drives protons (h+) across the inner membrane. The fall back, powering the atp synthase. Know that multicellular life involves specialisation of individual cells and communication between cells. Describe the levels of organisation in the body. Name and describe the four primary tissue types. Describe the junctions that hold cells and tissues together.
