Study Notes
Transport Mechanisms
- In renal tubules, glucose and sodium ions are transported via a secondary active transport mechanism, where the energy from sodium transport is used to drive glucose transport.
Eye Physiology
- The primary factor that plays the most important role in focusing in the eye is the shape of the lens.
Transport Types
- Electrogenic transport is a type of transport that generates an electric potential difference across the membrane, making it rheogenic.
Energy Transfer
- Charge carriers play a crucial role in energy transfer, and the essential factor in this process is the energy-rich molecules of NADH and FADH2.
Cellular Respiration
- The electron transport chain is located in the mitochondrial inner membrane.
Therapeutic Applications
- Liposomes are more desirable particles for therapeutic application due to their ability to encapsulate and deliver therapeutic agents.
Enzyme Regulation
- Coenzyme A is a product inhibitor of citrate synthase, regulating the citric acid cycle.
Metabolic Disorders
- The probable metabolic defect in gout is the impaired metabolism of uric acid, leading to its accumulation in joints.
Electron Carriers
- Cytochrome b contains a bound NADH, playing a crucial role in the electron transport chain.
Epigenetics
- Folate is a coenzyme categorized as part of paternal genome imprinting, influencing gene expression.
Cellular Respiration
- For each FADH2, 1.5 ATPs are formed in mitochondria.
Membrane Physiology
- The parameter 'r', known as the Donnan ratio, determines the distribution of ions across a membrane.
