Neurophysiology: neurons & circuits question

[neuroman12]

Does anyone have last years recording of Neurophys? Monday's lecture hasn't been uploaded yet 

[MelonBar]

Neuroman it might be worth it to ask them to upload last year's recording? if the recording failed

If you join the Facebook group for the subject, you'll see a link to it

Hey guys, only the stuff graham barrett has time to cover in the lectures will be examinable right?

[nino quincampoix]

Didn't he cover all of his content? If you're watching the recordings, I think he talks about not finishing it all, but I'm pretty sure he managed to get through it all.

[ferrsal]

I'm pretty sure there were a couple of lectures where he didn't get through the whole content

[nino quincampoix]

Are you sure?

I know that slides 48-54 from lecture 6.1 were not discussed, but you can understand them anyway as they relate to what was already discussed.

Also the peptides part (last few slides) from lecture 7.1 was not discussed, but I doubt that'd be very difficult to figure out.

[ferrsal]

Yep you're right, most of the stuff that wasn't discussed was just repeating what was already talked about, I guess it's wise to just read through them as well.

PS could the neuro mst marks hurry up im sweating from the stress

Lecture 7.1 page 11 and onwards wasn't covered either right

[nino quincampoix]

Yeah, they were not covered, but all I managed to get from those slides was the fact that active peptides are processed from precursory pre-propeptides. As I'm sure you know, you don't want the peptide transmitter to act where it's synthesised, hence a polypeptide is synthesised, which is later cleaved enzymatically into an active peptide (which is inside vesicles).

Midsem wasn't so bad, one question I thought had 4 right options though. I went with alpha and beta tubulins are filamentous as the wrong option, anyone else remember that one?

[nino quincampoix]

Yeah, that one! If I recall correctly, it was a "which one is incorrect" question, which is why they all looked right. It seemed like that one was the only odd one out though.

[kensan]

What were the other options?   I felt like I said something else for that one haha

[MelonBar]

Kinesins are anterograde transport, transport occurs on the outside of microtubules were 2 others. I went with the tubulins because I think filamentous means that something is made of filaments, which I dont the monomers are.... idk!

[ferrsal]

the filaments option was correct because he said the microtubules are made up of globular proteins that are polymerized but without branching. filaments branch, therefore that's the incorrect option
