#1
Front (Question)

Lysosomes distinct properties

Back (Answer)

Stomach of the cell -Part of HP -Acidic at pH 5 because of a proton pump

#2
Front (Question)

2 Vesicular trafficking pathways

Back (Answer)

• (Entering) Endocytosis AP-2 and clathrin • (Leaving) TGN to endosomes GGA and clathrin

#3
Front (Question)

Endosomes

Back (Answer)

Point of convergence of for endocytic and biosynthetic pathway

#4
Front (Question)

Mannose-6-Phosphate

Back (Answer)

Sorts lysosomes

#5
Front (Question)

Main signal for sorting to lysosome, recognized by, and how are they generated

Back (Answer)

M6P modification is recognized by M6P receptor (MPR). Mannosylated precursor have phospho-GlcNAc added during cis-Golgi and uncovered at TGN

#6
Front (Question)

I-cell patients lack what how is this resolved

Back (Answer)

They lack GlcNAc phosphotransferase resulting for their lysosome enzymes to be secreted. They add exogenous M6P-modified lysosomal enyzmes. They found that 10% of CI-MPR are in the cell surface to salvage secreted lysosomal enzymes.

#7
Front (Question)

GlcNAc phosphotransferase

Back (Answer)

Adds GlcNAc-P to lysosomal enzymes, Recognizes UDP-GlcNAc and signal patch of lysosomal enzyme

#8
Front (Question)

Signal patch sufficient?

Back (Answer)

they used cathepsin D and a secreted protein, pepsinogen that is not phosphorylate and made a hybrid of the signal patch. pepsinogen had a similar 3D structure as CatD and was phosphorylated.

#9
Front (Question)

MPR and how do they release their cargo

Back (Answer)

MPR bind M6P packaged in tor clathrin-coated vesicles delivered to early endosomes. They release their cargo because of the drop in pH at endosome. MPR are recycled back to TGN

#10
Front (Question)

2 types of MPR

Back (Answer)

CI-MPR (300kda) CD-MPR (46kDa)

#11
Front (Question)

2 experiments that found CI-MPR to be at the cell surface

Back (Answer)

• They inhibited CI-MPR and found lysosomal enzymes to be secreted

#12
