Mitotic CDKs affect nuclear envelope components by specific mechanism. Which of the following statement is not related to this mechanism?

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
  1. The CDKs phosphorylate specific nucleoporins, which causes nuclear pore complexes to dissociate into subcomplexes during prophase. 
  2. Phosphorylation of integral membrane proteins of the inner nuclear membrane causes depolymerization of the lamin intermediate filaments.
  3. The weakening of the associations between the inner nuclear membrane proteins and the nuclear lamina and chromatin allows sheets of inner nuclear membrane to retract into the endoplasmic reticulum, which is continuous with the outer nuclear membrane.
  4. Mitotic CDKs induce the formation of the mitotic spindle. The function of the mitotic spindle is to segregate chromosomes so that the sister chromatids separate from each other and are moved to opposite poles of the cell.

When stress conditions arise, or when protein synthesis threatens to overwhelm the protein-folding capacity of the ER, unfolded proteins can accumulate. These conditions trigger the unfolded protein response (UPR)

a) unfolded protein response ensures to reduces the rate of protein synthesis by mTOR pathway

b) Amyloid aggregates that form before the UPR can come into play may be removed. Some are degraded by autophagy

c) Amyloid aggregates that can be removed by other mechanism such as lysosomal degradations

d)  UPR also bring the various systems into alignment by increasing the concentration of chaperones in the oxygen deprived conditions

The folding pathways of some proteins require two enzymes that catalyze isomerization reactions such as,

a) Peptide prolyl isomerase (PPI)  catalyzes the elimination of folding intermediates with inappropriate disulfide cross-links

b) Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) enzyme that catalyzes the interchange, or shuffling, of disulfide bonds until the bonds of the native conformation are formed

c) Peptide prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPI) catalyzes the interconversion of the cis and trans isomers of Proline residue peptide bonds

d) Peptide prolyl isomerase (PPI) can be a fast step in the folding of proteins that contain some Pro peptide bonds in the cis conformation
