Study Guide for the BME5 Midterm The midterm will cover information from lectures 1-4. Subject areas that are fair game for the test are listed below. I may not use every single item in the exam. Note that the level of detail required is that which was covered in lecture. Only information covered in lecture will be on the tests (includes info in figures and tables).

Neuropathological analysis led to the identification of insoluble cytoplasmic phosphorylated protein deposits in brain and spinal cord. TDP-43 is a broadly expressed and highly conserved protein with different functions in RNA metabolism‚ including RNA translation‚ splicing and transport. In physiological conditions‚ TDP-43 is located in de nucleus to apply its function‚ but a little amount can be found in the cytoplasm. In 2011‚ hexanucleotide repeat expansion mutations were discovered in a gene

Plant hormones are specialized chemical substances produced by plants. They are the main internal factors controlling growth and development. Hormones are produced in one part of a plant and transported to others‚ where they are effective in very small amounts. Depending on the target tissue‚ a given hormone may have different effects. Plant hormones play an integral role in controlling the growth and development of plants. A plant hormone is generally described as an organic compound synthesized

Genetic Code Introduction In the previous activity‚ you learned how DNA encodes the instructions for creating proteins. You also learned about the basics of the process of protein synthesis. In this activity you will apply your knowledge of transcription and translation to decode a secret message as well as investigate the effect that various mutations have on protein production. You will then look specifically at the genetic mutation that causes sickle cell disease. Equipment Computer Laboratory journal
