Glycosylation of glycoproteins is regulated by several factors, including glycosyltransferase enzymes, suitable acceptor sites on proteins, Dol-P levels in tissues, and oligosaccharide-protein transferase activity. Different cells express different glycosyltransferases, and some require prior action of other enzymes. Glycosylation patterns can also differ between species and cells of the same species, influencing properties like the half-life of therapeutic proteins.

During the breakdown of nucleic acids, nucleoside mono- and diphosphates are released. Nucleoside kinases prevent the accumulation of nucleosides by phosphorylating them. There are four classes of nucleoside monophosphate (NMP) kinases that phosphorylate AMP, GMP, CMP, UMP, and dTMP. Adenylate kinase is important for maintaining adequate energy levels in cells and catalyzes the reaction of 2ADP to AMP and ATP. Nucleoside diphosphate (NDP) kinases have an activity 10 to 100 times higher than NMP kinases and catalyze reactions that maintain high intracellular levels of nucleoside triAttachments
Glycolipids are lipids that contain carbohydrate residues attached to a ceramide backbone. They are present in cell membranes, especially nerve tissue. Glycolipids can be neutral or acidic depending on whether they contain charged groups like sialic acid. They are synthesized in the Golgi apparatus through sequential addition of sugar monomers to ceramide. Glycolipids serve important roles in cell recognition and receptor functions.

Cyclophosphamide ppt
Cyclophosphamide is an alkylating agent used to treat white blood cell cancers and lymphoma. It works by being metabolized into phosphoramide mustard, which adds alkyl groups to DNA, forming crosslinks between and within DNA strands. This leads to DNA damage and ultimately cell death. The expression of genes coding for enzymes involved in cyclophosphamide metabolism, such as cytochrome P450 and ALDH, can affect how sensitive cancer cells are to the drug.
Pentose phosphate pathway
The pentose phosphate pathway, also known as the hexose monophosphate shunt, is an alternative metabolic pathway to glycolysis that occurs in the cytosol. It is a complex pathway that helps generate NADPH for fatty acid synthesis and glutathione for antioxidant activity, as well as synthesizing ribose-5-phosphate for nucleotide and nucleic acid formation. Glucose-6-phosphate enters the pathway and is oxidized through a two-phase process involving dehydrogenation using NADP+ instead of NAD+. Several intermediates are formed and rearranged before regenerating glucose-6-phosphate and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate to complete the nonoxidative phase. Genetic defects in glucose-6
Approach to upper GIT bleeding (UGIB)
Acute (UGIB) is a GIT emergency with a mortality of 4%-14% despite advances in critical care monitoring and support. Spontaneous cessation of bleeding occurs in 85% of cases. Main cause is PUD. But in Egypt variceal bleeding is the commonest.
Upper Gastrointestinal bleeding
This document provides an overview of acute gastrointestinal bleeding. It defines upper gastrointestinal bleeding and discusses its causes, including variceal and non-variceal sources. Signs and symptoms are outlined. The approach involves taking a thorough history and physical exam. Key lab tests include CBC, LFTs, coagulation panels and endoscopy. Treatment depends on the bleeding source, and may include endoscopic methods, radiological embolization, surgery, or medications like PPIs and vasoactive drugs. Complications are also reviewed.

Medicinal chemistry Basics: Receptor
G-protein coupled receptors interact with G-proteins which have three subunits. When a ligand binds to the receptor, it causes the G-protein to split into an alpha subunit and a beta-gamma dimer. The alpha subunit can then activate or inhibit enzymes like adenylate cyclase. Adenylate cyclase increases cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels when activated, and cAMP acts as a second messenger to activate protein kinase A and induce downstream effects in the cell. G-protein coupled receptors can also activate phospholipase C via Gq proteins to produce second messengers like diacylglycerol and inositol triphosphate that activate protein kinase C and induce other cellular responses. Kinase-
MECHANISM OF ACTION OF HORMONES
The document summarizes different mechanisms of hormone signal transduction. It describes how hormones bind to cell surface or intracellular receptors which then activate intracellular signaling pathways using second messengers like cAMP, IP3, DAG, calcium. These second messengers go on to affect cell functions like glycogen breakdown, lipid metabolism, transcription etc. through kinases and other effector proteins. The document also discusses G-protein coupled receptor pathway and steroid hormone signaling pathway involving hormone-receptor complexes in the cytoplasm and nucleus.
G-protein for lecture.ppt
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of cell surface receptors and mediate cellular responses to a wide range of signaling molecules. They signal through trimeric G-proteins, which functionally couple the receptors to target enzymes like adenylyl cyclase. Some G-proteins activate adenylyl cyclase to produce the second messenger cAMP, while others inhibit it. cAMP functions through protein kinase A to regulate metabolism and gene transcription. Cholera toxin causes prolonged cAMP production by permanently activating G-proteins, leading to severe diarrhea.
Signal trasduction
Protein phosphorylation via protein kinases and dephosphorylation via protein phosphatases regulates many cellular processes through signal transduction cascades. G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) detect extracellular signals and activate intracellular heterotrimeric G proteins, which then modulate the activity of effector proteins like adenylate cyclase. When activated by GTP, Gα subunits dissociate from Gβγ complexes to control downstream signaling events. Effector activation is terminated upon GTP hydrolysis by Gα, allowing it to reassociate with Gβγ.

It also describes the role of second messengers like cAMP, IP3 and DAG in GPCR signaling.
GLYCOGENESIS
The synthesis of glycogen from glucose (glycogenesis) involves multiple enzymatic steps that takes place in the cytosol. Glucose is first converted to glucose-6-phosphate by hexokinase or glucokinase in muscle and liver respectively. It is then converted to UDP-glucose which acts as the donor of glucose units. A glycogen primer, initiated by the enzyme glycogen synthase, is required to begin glycogen synthesis. Glycogen is then elongated through alpha-1,4 glycosidic linkages by glycogen synthase and branched through alpha-1,6 linkages by the branching enzyme glucosyltransferase. This leads to the formation of the branched glyc
glycoprotein
This document discusses glycoproteins, which are proteins that contain oligosaccharide chains covalently attached to their polypeptide side chains. There are three major classes of glycoproteins based on the nature of the linkage between the polypeptide and oligosaccharide chains. Glycoproteins play important roles in various biological functions and processes like fertilization. Several methods are used to study the structure and functions of glycoproteins, including using specific glycosidases and lectins.
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs)
GPCRs are the largest and most diverse group of integral membrane proteins. These proteins are used by cells to convert extracellular signals into intracellular responses and mediate most of our physiological responses to hormones, neurotransmitters as well as responses to vision, olfaction and taste signal. They mediate most of our and environmental stimulants, and so have a great potential as therapeutic targets for a broad spectrum of diseases. At the most basic level, all GPCRS are characterized by the presence of seven membrane-spanning alpha helical segments separated by alternating intracellular and extracellular loop regions. Coupling with G proteins, they are called seven-transmembrane receptors because they pass through the cell membrane seven times.
3.19.2010
Small G proteins bind either GDP or GTP and function as molecular switches. When bound to GTP, they interact with and activate target proteins. Heterotrimeric G proteins are composed of alpha, beta, and gamma subunits and bind to G protein-coupled receptors in the cell membrane. When a ligand binds the receptor, it activates the G protein, causing the alpha subunit to exchange GDP for GTP. The alpha subunit then activates downstream effector molecules like adenylyl cyclase. Adenylyl cyclase converts ATP to cyclic AMP (cAMP), which activates protein kinase A and triggers phosphorylation of target proteins to elicit cellular responses.
G protein coupled receptors and their Signaling Mechanism
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are a large family of receptors that span cell membranes and activate intracellular signaling pathways in response to extracellular stimuli. They are activated by a wide range of ligands including light, hormones, and neurotransmitters. Upon ligand binding, GPCRs activate heterotrimeric G proteins, which then initiate intracellular signaling cascades. The three main G protein families - Gs, Gi, and Gq - activate or inhibit different downstream effector enzymes to elicit a cellular response. Dysregulation of GPCRs and their associated signaling pathways can lead to various diseases.

Glycogenesis lec 7
Glycogen synthesis (glycogenesis) is regulated by hormonal changes and occurs in the liver and muscle. Glycogen is synthesized from glucose molecules using energy from ATP and UTP. First, glucose-6-phosphate is converted to UDP-glucose, which serves as the donor for glycogen synthesis. A primer is needed to initiate glycogen synthesis and is provided by glycogenin autoglucosylating to form a short glycogen chain. This primer is then elongated by glycogen synthase transferring glucose from UDP-glucose to the glycogen chain via alpha-1,4 glycosidic bonds. Branches are introduced through the action of branching enzyme every 6-8 residues by cleaving a segment

Glycogen metabolism ppt
Glycogen is the storage form of glucose found in the liver and muscles. It consists of glucose monomers linked together by glycosidic bonds to form a branched polymer. Glycogen serves as a readily available source of glucose through the processes of glycogenolysis and glycogenesis. Glycogenolysis involves the breakdown of glycogen into glucose-1-phosphate through the actions of phosphorylase, phosphoglucomutase, and glucose-6-phosphatase. Glycogenesis is the synthesis of glycogen from glucose-6-phosphate utilizing glycogen synthase and branching enzyme. The activities of these enzymes are regulated by hormonal signals and allosteric effectors to ensure coordinated anabolism and catabol
Biosynthesis of peptidoglycan
Peptidoglycan is a polymer that forms the cell wall of bacteria and provides structural strength. It consists of alternating sugars (N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid) linked together into a mesh-like layer with cross-linking peptide chains. Peptidoglycan is synthesized through a two-stage process where sugar nucleotides and amino acids are assembled into a lipid carrier on the inner membrane before being polymerized into the cell wall. Several antibiotics are able to inhibit peptidoglycan synthesis by binding to enzymes involved in cross-linking, preventing cell wall assembly and causing bacterial cell death.
Chemical Messengers cAMP and cGMP
Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) are intracellular second messengers that mediate the effects of various hormones and neurotransmitters. cAMP mediates processes like steroidogenesis, secretion, ion transport and gene regulation through protein kinase A (PKA)-catalyzed phosphorylation of substrates. cGMP is involved in processes like vision, smooth muscle relaxation and vasodilation through protein kinase G (PKG). Both cAMP and cGMP signals are terminated by phosphodiesterases, which hydrolyze them. Phosphatases also regulate phosphorylation state of substrates.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptx
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

EWOCS-I: The catalog of X-ray sources in Westerlund 1 from the Extended Weste...
Context. With a mass exceeding several 104 M⊙ and a rich and dense population of massive stars, supermassive young star clusters
represent the most massive star-forming environment that is dominated by the feedback from massive stars and gravitational interactions
among stars.
Aims. In this paper we present the Extended Westerlund 1 and 2 Open Clusters Survey (EWOCS) project, which aims to investigate
the influence of the starburst environment on the formation of stars and planets, and on the evolution of both low and high mass stars.
The primary targets of this project are Westerlund 1 and 2, the closest supermassive star clusters to the Sun.
Methods. The project is based primarily on recent observations conducted with the Chandra and JWST observatories. Specifically,
the Chandra survey of Westerlund 1 consists of 36 new ACIS-I observations, nearly co-pointed, for a total exposure time of 1 Msec.
Additionally, we included 8 archival Chandra/ACIS-S observations. This paper presents the resulting catalog of X-ray sources within
and around Westerlund 1. Sources were detected by combining various existing methods, and photon extraction and source validation
were carried out using the ACIS-Extract software.
Results. The EWOCS X-ray catalog comprises 5963 validated sources out of the 9420 initially provided to ACIS-Extract, reaching a
photon flux threshold of approximately 2 × 10−8 photons cm−2
s
−1
. The X-ray sources exhibit a highly concentrated spatial distribution,
with 1075 sources located within the central 1 arcmin. We have successfully detected X-ray emissions from 126 out of the 166 known
massive stars of the cluster, and we have collected over 71 000 photons from the magnetar CXO J164710.20-455217.
The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

Sharlene Leurig - Enabling Onsite Water Use with Net Zero Water
Sharlene Leurig - Enabling Onsite Water Use with Net Zero WaterTexas Alliance of Groundwater Districts
Presented at June 6-7 Texas Alliance of Groundwater Districts Business MeetingPhenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

hematic appreciation test is a psychological assessment tool used to measure an individual's appreciation and understanding of specific themes or topics. This test helps to evaluate an individual's ability to connect different ideas and concepts within a given theme, as well as their overall comprehension and interpretation skills. The results of the test can provide valuable insights into an individual's cognitive abilities, creativity, and critical thinking skillsRecently uploaded (20)

Several Factors Regulate Glycosylation of Glycoproteins
- 1. Several Factors Regulate Glycosylation of Glycoproteins
- 2. Glycosyltransferase Family Donor Substrate Fucosyltransferase GDP-Fucose Sialyltransferase CMP-Neuraminic acid Galactosyltransferase UDP-Galactose N-Acetyl glucosaminyl transferase UDP- N-Acetyl glucosamin N-Acetyl galactosaminyl transferase UDP- N-Acetyl galactosamin Mannosyltransferase GDP-Mannose Glucosyltransferase UDP-Glucose
- 3. Suitable acceptor sites in proteins. The tissue level of Dol-P. The activity of the oligosaccharide:protein transferase.
- 5. Different cells give different enzymes. Certain glycosyltransferases act only on the oligosaccaride chain if it has already been acted upon by another previous enzyme. EX: action of GlcNAc is important for Golgi alpha-mannosaidase. During which some genes are turned on & others are turned off.
- 6. Each enzyme has its own destination for insertion. Ex:HMG.CoA reductase ER membrane it may never encounter Golgi-located processing enzyme. Differences in proteins conformation may hinder access of proccessing enzymes.
- 7. •The same cells(ex:fibroblast) of different species exhibit different patterns of processing enzymes. •Species variation is an important factor which is used for production of Glycoproteins of Therapeutic use by Recombinant DNA tech. EX:synthesized Erythropoietin (EPO)
- 9. 1. Synthesized EPO is administered to patients with chronic anemia in order to stimulate Erythropoiesis. 2. The half-life of EPO in plasma is influenced by the nature of its glycosylation pattern. 3. Some species give patterns with short HL, others give them with normal HL.
- 11. 1 • By lysosomal acid hydrolases. 2 • They are Exo-enzymes. 3 • If anyone is missing ,degradation can’t complete>>>>Leading to diseases!
