phosphatase | |
proteome | |
receptor dimerization | |
signaling cascade | |
2 requirements for the storage of radioactive materials | must be secure at all time must have attending materials must be located in an unbreakable container, which is locked in a freezer or cabinet, which is located in a locked room |
conditions for optimal enzyme function | |
how an enzyme increases the rate of a reaction | |
how long a permit for radioactive decay is valid | permit is valid until the conditions of the permit change |
how signal amplification works | |
2 things on which chemical behaviour depends | |
the charges of protons, neutrons, and electrons and where they are located in an atom | proton - (+) nucleus; neutron (no charge) nucleus; electron (-) |
three types of signaling molecules | |
two effects of ionizing radiation | can alter chemical bonds may change composition or structure |
Five practices to reduce exposure to radiation | |
how lysozyme me works | |
how Ras is activated by EGF and its substrate | |
the 3 forms of radiation and their penetration characteristics | Matter penetration a<b<g A: Too much atomic mass -> 2 pro and 2 neut to be released B: Too many neutrons in the nucleus -> a neut to be converted into a pro and elec G: Too much energy, releases a large amount of energy with no change nucleus particl |
