Question 1
Question
What is the main role of a molecular chaperone?
Answer
-
Assist in the folding of other proteins
-
Assist in the unfolding of other proteins
-
Assist in the assembly of other proteins
-
Assist in the disassembly of other proteins
Question 2
Question
Chaperone proteins are permanent parts of the proteins they fold
Question 3
Question
Why are chaperone proteins necessary?
Answer
-
Some proteins have complex folding pathways,
-
Some proteins are inherently soluble
-
Useful for multimeric assembly
-
So many proteins folding and interacting mean some need help
Question 4
Question
Name the role of the domain highlighted in bacterial trigger factor
Question 5
Question
The highlighted domain of Bacterial trigger factor binds to L23 of the ribosome
Question 6
Question
The bacterial ribosome and bacterial trigger factor form a complex, so the protein is folded as it comes off the ribosome
Question 7
Question
The N-domain of the bacterial trigger factor bind to what subunit of what size ribosome?
Question 8
Question
After the protein interacts with the T.F, it may interact with what proteins?
Answer
-
DNAK
-
DNAJ
-
DNAL
-
Gro-EL
-
Gro-ER
Question 9
Question
What percent of proteins can fold unaided after interacting with DNAK/J?
Question 10
Question
10-15% of proteins need to use the lidded protein chaperone syastem
Question 11
Question
15-18% of proteins need further _ interactions?
Question 12
Question
Yeast has no trigger factor
Question 13
Question
In yeast, what protein folding complex interacts with the proteins first?
Question 14
Question
The RAC complex is made of which proteins?
Question 15
Question
SSB is separated from the RAC but also chaperones protein folding
Question 16
Question
The NAC is made of A and B homologues
Question 17
Question
What is the role of the NAC?
Answer
-
Bind to nascent proteins and prevent aggregation
-
Binds to nascent proteins and degrades them based on protein concentrations in the cell
-
Binds to nascent proteins and folds them
Question 18
Question
Human cellss don't possess an NAC
Question 19
Question
Humans have an hRAC rather than an RAC
Question 20
Question
The human version of the RAC contains which two proteins?
Question 21
Question
Name the lidded protein chaperone found in yeast and humans
Question 22
Question
Name the circled sets of cytoplasmic folding proteins
Answer

Hsp40/70- humans
-
Hsp40/70- yeast
