Ubiquitin forms a complex with proteins and then binds with _______, forming a sort of "molecular chamber of doom," where proteins are digested into small peptides and amino acids.
A) the extracellular space
B) mitochondria
C) the proteasome
D) lysosomes
E) the Golgi apparatus

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ubiquitin binds with proteins and forms a complex that gets degraded or broken down by the proteasome. The proteasome is a large protein complex that acts as a molecular chamber, where proteins get digested into small peptides and amino acids. The other options (A, B, D, E) are not directly involved in this process.
