A group of cytosolic proteins is anchored to the cytoplasmic face of a membrane by a fatty acyl group attached to an amino acid at the N-terminal. Which of the following is that amino acid? Correct Answer Glycine

A group of cytosolic proteins is anchored to the cytoplasmic face of a membrane by a fatty acyl group attached to an N-terminal glycine residue. This modification of N-terminal glycine residue is called acylation.

Which of the following statements are correct regarding the general difference between cell and nuclear membranes? 1. A cell membrane occurs in both Eukaryotes and Prokaryotes while a Nuclear membrane occurs only in Eukaryotes.  2. Both cell membrane and nuclear membrane persists throughout the lifetime of a cell. 3. The main feature of the nuclear membrane is the presence of two lipid bilayer structures while a cell membrane has single lipid bilayer structures. Select the correct answer using the code given below.

In a batch process, the reaction takes place in the presence of an acid medium. The acid is drained from the reaction vessel at the rate of 15ml/s as a result of the density difference of the acid from the reacting component. To avoid wastage of acid, it is recycled to an acid tank which has 1000 L capacity. The acid drained from the reaction vessel, picks up 50 g/L solids from the reactor. Acid is fed once again to the process from acid tank. When the process is started, the acid is almost pure in the tank as a result of filtration. As the reaction proceeds, acid in the tank gets more and more contaminated with the solids. The concentration of the solids should not exceed 100 g/L from the process point of view. The batch time is 16h. Estimate whether the concentration of the solids will exceed 100g/L during the batch reaction.
