thank you...

Good luck everyone.....

@tg2009 and all those u ve finished biochem

i have a little querry ??

There are 4 types of rec
1.steroid rec (located in the cytoplasm or nucleus ) ,2. ion channel rec 3.,enzyme linked rec 4,G protein linked rec

Out of these .. the trans membrane rec are 2,3,& 4 .. am I rt ??

Some rec are present in the cytoplasm but migrate to the nucleus. This are steroid recs .. rt ??
(eg glucocorticoid ,mineralocorticoid ,androgen , estrpgen and cortisol)

What kind of rec does progesterone have ..??

uw says –it require ligands to diffuse thru the cell cell membrane before binding can occur,then transcription is activated, but uw also says that it acts via nuclear rec that directly binds with dna to influence prot production .. so wat is the ligand s role here ??
?
I have a doubt about GABA rec --does it have a G prot linked or a ligand gated ion channel rec

What about glycine rec – is it an ion chanel rec . ??

last,
in homocystenemia .. why do u give folate and B12 .. if decreasing methionine is a treatment for cystathione def .. giving folate and B12 .. will it not increase the methionine level .. and increasing the methione prod (via folate and B12 ) wont it l ultimately lead to increase of homocystine??? Can anyone explain this to me
goodmorning guys and welcome new members

i am still with renal physio and yesterday i didnt finish even one small chapter,,,today i will do it ...

@owlcity ,,i did my first reading of bio but believe i dont know what are u talking about in first q,,like dnt saw that things u mentioned here,,,if u understand it let me now,,but for homocystenemia ,,,thereis other enzyme that convert homocystine back to methionine wich is homocystine methyle transferase (this enzyme require b12 and folate )for its action ,,so if this are deficient also person will have homocystenemia but less sever form ...
in homocystenemia the main concern is homocystine not methionine concentration
