Choose the right answer: The process of autophagy requires that:
The endocytotic pathway of pinocytosis is activated on the plasma membrane
A phagosome is formed at the plasma membrane

Can be processed to form mRNA
Could be used in the clinic to reduce the production of proteins that are not functioning properly
If it is endogenous, may be a target to be detected through the use of. Tissue- specific aptamer
Choose the wrong answer: This is a type of endocytosis
Pinocytosis
Clatrin-dependent endocytosis
Phagocytosis
Receptor-mediated endocytosis
Choose the right answer: Early endosomes

Interact with plasma membranes in vesicle formation during pinocytosis
Sort internalized proteins through localized changes is pH
Sort internalized proteins through localized changes is pH
Both recycled
Ligand recycled, receptor degraded
Both transported through the cell
Both degraded
Choose the wrong answer: MicroRNA
Is produced in the nucleus and exposed in the cytoplasm a double-stranded micro-RNA
Combines to the RISC protein to form the RNA induced shut-up complex
Binds to DICE, an endonuclease protein that cuts microRNA in a shorter segment
Targets mRNA and interferes with protein synthesis
Choose the right answer: The primary transcript of RNA
Is synthesized using the mRNA sequence as template
Looses regions of sequence that do not code for the protein, the exons
Is processes to from mRNA
Combines its nucleosides with nucleotides on tRNA
Choose the right answer: Glycogen granules
Are formed by highly branched polymer used as a storage of glycolipids
Are iron-storage complexes formed by the indigestible residues of hemoglobin
Are particularly evident in liver a striated muscle cells
Provide thermogenesis for cellular metabolism
Choose the wrong answer: Lipofuscin
Is a brownish- gold pigment visible in hematoxylin and cosin preparation
Accumulate within the cells as a result of oxidative degradation of … and lysosomal digestion
Accumulates in macrophages after digestion of bacteria, foreign particles, cells
Formed as consequence of leakage of blood in the skin
Choose the wrong answer: Actin Filaments
Are thinner, shorter and more flexible than microtubules
Polymerize in the presence of K+, Ca2+, and ATP
Assemble by polymerization into linear helical array
Interact with actin-binding proteins, which can prevent or enhance polymerization
Choose the wrong answer: Patients affected by Primary ciliary dyskinesia
Have genetic defect affecting dynein arms
Accumulate secretion in the respiratory system
May have congenital heart disease
Are infertile only if they are males
Choose the right answer: Polymerization of microtubules requires that:
The ß-molecule of one dimer bound to the molecule of the next dimer on the minus (-) END
Dimers link them into a linear structure, which contain 13 actin dimers within its cross section
The minus (-) end of the microtubule contains a ring of γ- tubulin, which is necessary for microtubule nucleation
Incorporated tubulin dimers hydrolyze ATP
Choose the right answer: The motor proteins associated with microtubules
Always move along the microtubules toward the minus end of the tubule
Use energy from GTP hydrolysis
Belong to the family of gelsolin proteins
Use energy from ATP hydrolysis
Choose the wrong answer: The microtubules polymeric structure
Is a non-branching and rigid hallow tube
Grows from the microtubule-organizing center located near the nucleus
Is composed of equal parts of α- tubulin and β-tubulin
Is formed a consequence of the local concentration of G-tubulin
Choose the wrong answer: The Proteasome
Is an ATP-dependent protease complex
Is used by cell to destroy abnormal proteins that are misfolded, denaturated, or contain abnormal amino acids
Is used by cells to destroy normal short-lived regulatory proteins such as tumor suppressors or tumor promoters
Contains lysobisphosphatidic acid that is resistant to the hydrolytic digestion
Choose the wrong answer: Methods to replace the missing enzymes that cause various forms of LSD
Enzyme-replacement therapy
Transplantation of bone marrow containing normal genes
Pharmacological chaperone therapy
Transfusion of blood containing normal lysosomes
Choose the wrong answer: Lysosomes membrane contains
Cholesterol and lysobisposphoric acid
Lysosome membrane glycoproteins
Lysosome-associated membrane proteins
Lysosomal integral membrane proteins
Choose the wrong answer: The nuclear pores
Are eight multidomain protein subunits arranged in a cylinder-like structure
Regulate a monodirectional transport from the nucleus to the cytoplasm
Are composed of about 50 different nucleoporins
Are crossed by molecules driven by importin and exportin proteins
Choose the wrong answer: The Nucleolus
Is a non-membranous region of the nucleus
Has a fibrillar center, a pars fibrosa and a pars granulosa
Contains transcriptionally active mRNA
Represents the site of initial ribosomal assembly
Choose the right answer: The Nuclear Envelope
It’s inner surface is called the nuclear porins
Has perinuclear cisternal space that communicates with the cisternal space of the rER
Is an impermeable membranous barrier between the nuclear compartment and the cytoplasm
Is perforated by nuclear proton pumps that mediate the active transport of sugar molecules
Choose the right answer: The Nucleosomes
Are found in both euchromatin and heterochromatin
Have a core formed by nine histone molecules
Are prominent in metabolically active cells such s neurons and liver cells
Shorten the DNA molecule by 2-fold than unfolded DNA
Choose the wrong answer: The Chromatin
Consists of DNA and structural proteins
Has phosphate groups responsible for it’s characteristic acidophillia
Is formed by heterochromatin and euchromatin
Can be folded to form chromosomes
