Which of the following statements concerning the anion channel protein is not true?
A) It plays an important role in carbon dioxide transport in blood
B) It facilitates the chloride shift
C) Bicarbonate and chloride exchange occurs through the anion channel protein
D) The N-terminal methionine residue of the anion channel protein is prenylated
E) All of the above statements are true.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The N-terminal methionine residue of the anion channel protein is not prenylated. Prenylation typically occurs on cysteine residues near the C-terminus of proteins, not on N-terminal methionine residues. The other statements (A, B, C) correctly describe functions or characteristics of anion channel proteins, such as their role in carbon dioxide transport in blood, facilitation of the chloride shift, and the exchange of bicarbonate and chloride.
