5. A cell biologist has developed a new drug that will block the cis face (find out what this
means!) of the Golgi apparatus. If eventually approved by the FDA, she wantsto use this new
drug to aid cancer patients. What specifically will this drug prevent from happening inside a
cancer cell? 6. The pH of black coffee is about 5. The hydrogen ion concentration of beer is
about one hundred times greater than that of coffee. What is the pH of beer?
Solution
The proteins and other components of membrane pass from Cis side to Trans side of golgi
appratus for maturation. Further modification of lipids and proteins like glycosylation to form
glycolipuds and proteins takes place in the golgi appratus. So these all changes disrupt following
drug administration Therefire essential proteins and membrane structures are not formed . The
cell destabilizes and there occurs rupture preventing exceeding growth rates in cancer.
Since ph pf black coffee is 5 , pH = -log[H+] . So [H+]= 10^-5.
Now, Beer has [H+] concentration = 10^-3 , so pH = -log[H+]. Hence pH= 3
