The aggregation of nonpolar molecules or groups in water is thermodynamically due to the

#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology

  1. increased entropy of the nonpolar molecules when they associate.

  2. decreased enthalpy of the system.

  3. increased entropy of the water molecules.

  4. very strong van der Waals forces among the nonpolar molecules or groups.

Choose the incorrect?
1- COPI vesicles transport proteins from the rough ER to the cis -Golgi; COPII vesicles transport proteins in the reverse s Direction.
2- The KDEL receptor binds more tightly to its ligand ar low pH, and it is thought that the receptor is able to bind KDEL peptides in the cis-Golgi but to release these peptides in the ER because the pH of the Golgi is slightly lower than that of the ER.
3- The KDEL sorting signal is recognized and bound by the KDEL receptor, a transmembrane protein found primarily on small transport vesicles shuttling between the ER and the cis -Golgi and on the cis-Golgi reticulum.
