G protein
A GTP-binding protein that relays signals from a plasma-membrane signal receptor, known as a G-protein linked receptor, to other signal-transduction proteins inside the cell.
G protein A protein located on the inside of the cell membrane that helps transmit molecular signals into cells.
Gene A unit of heredity; a segment of DNA that contains the code for making a specific protein or RNA molecule.
G protein A guanyl nucleotide-binding protein that is a component of intracellular signaling pathways.

A DNA binding protein structural motif. Present in many transcription factors (e.g., Sp1, Gal4). The "finger" is formed by 2-4 Cysteine residues and one zinc ion.

Endoplasmic reticulum, shown in Figure 13 and 14, is a mesh of interconnected membranes that serve a function involving protein synthesis and transport.
It also forms the "heme"portion of hemoglobin, our oxygen carrying protein, where it also contains an iron ion, Fe, in place of the Mg. It is the Fe ion in hemoglobin that makes our blood red.
(Science: protein) actin binding protein (55 kD) of dictyostelium discoideum. Associated with crown shaped cell surface projections of growth phase cells. Accumulates at front of cells responding to a chemotactic gradient of camp.
During protein synthesis, each time an amino acid is added to the growing protein, a tRNA forms base pairs with its complementary sequence on the mRNA molecule, ensuring that the appropriate amino acid is inserted into the protein.
structural gene - gene or part of gene encoding protein sequence.
synapse - a highly specialized junction between two neurons, or between a neuron and an effector cell (e.g., muscle or gland cell), ...
A mutation that produces a functioning protein is called a silent mutation.

Exercise 1.
Codon: In an mRNA, a codon is a sequence of three nucleotides which codes for the incorporation of a specific amino acid into the growing protein. The sequence of codons in the mRNA unambiguously defines the primary structure of the final protein.
Then the antibody-protein complex is pelleted usually using protein-G sepharose which binds most antibodies. If there are any protein/molecules that bind to the first protein, they will also be pelleted.
During this period, the cell is constantly synthesizing RNA, producing protein and growing in size.
Repressor. A DNA-binding protein in prokaryotes that blocks gene transcription by binding to the operator.
binding sites Areas on the ribosome within which tRNA-amino acid complexes fit during protein synthesis.
