Intracellular Protein Degradation and the Ubiquitin-Proteasome System George N. DeMartino ND12.124 214. 645.6024 george.demartino@utsouthwestern.edu Presenter Presentation Notes We will see how protein degradation in general, mediated by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in particular, regulates many important physiological functions and how disfunction of this activity leads to a number of pathological states.  The basics General features of intracellular protein

Osmosis Demonstration Lab Objectives The student will: 1) Observe the effects of different concentrations of salt solutions on potato cores. 2) Infer the relationship between weight loss and rate of osmosis. 3) Use a line graph to display data and draw conclusions. 4) Observe plasmolysis in Elodea. Background Osmosis is the process whereby water moves across a cell membrane by diffusion. Diffusion takes place when the molecules of a substance tend to move from areas of higher concentration

1 Responses to Static (Isometric) Exercise Suggestions for Teachers Background Static exercise involves the contraction of skeletal muscle without a change in muscle length, hence the alternative term, isometric (iso = same, meter = length) exercise. Static exercise produces a cardiovascular response that differs significantly from that observed during dynamic exercise. Typical examples of static exercise include athletic events such as weight lifting, shot put, hammer throw, and everyday
