Describe the function of the E1, E2, and E3 enzymes in the ubiquitinating system. Why are there ~500 E3 genes in the human genome but only two E1 genes? correct answers E1 enzymes attached ubiquitin to E2 enzymes, E2 enzymes conjugate ubiquitin to target proteins, and E3 enzymes recognize target proteins and facilitate ubiquitination by interacting directly with E2-ubiquitin and the target protein. E3 proteins must recognize a large number of target proteins, and thus there are hundreds of diffe...

MCB 2000 Final Exam Questions And Answers (Verified And Updated) When does the synthesis of lipid occur? - answerHigh I/G ratio, excess calorie intake (excess carbons from glucose or excess dietary protein) What tissues are involved in the synthesis of lipids? - answerLiver (primary site in humans - 90%), adipose tissue How are the structures of triglycerides and phospholipids similar? - answerBoth contain a glycerol backbone w/ 2 fatty acids attached, BUT PL attach a phosphate group w/ a...

BCH 462 Exam 4 Questions With 100% Correct Answers Fatty Acid Synthesis - answerFatty acids are built in several passes, processing one acetate unit at a time. The acetate is coming from activated malonate in the form of malonyl-CoA. Each pass involves reduction of a carbonyl carbon to a methylene carbon. Overall, repeating four-step sequence that elongates the fatty acyl chain by two carbons at each step, uses NADPH as the electron donor. Two enzyme-bound -SH groups serve as activating...
