Question 109 Pesticide tributyltin has a very long half-life, and has been used for decades as a pesticide on ocean ship-bottoms, to avoid barnacle and algae growth. Recent studies have shown that tributyltin interferes with prestin function. One might expect this to cause:

a) The membrane voltage will go up, and the rods will release more glutamate
b) The membrane voltage will go down, and the rods will release less glutamate
c) The membrane voltage will go down, and the rods will release less acetylcholine
d) The membrane voltage will go up, and the rods will release more acetylcholine

e) None of the above
PDE causes cGMP->GMP-> sodium channels close
-> membrane voltage becomes more negative-> less glutamate is released.
PDE inhibitor - > opposite series of events -> more glutamate is released

Coordination in retina
In darkness, rods and cones (at ~-40mV) are constantly releasing glutamate
-with light, Na+ channels close, cells hyperpolarize, and glutamate stops. -in response, some bipolar cells depolarize, while others hyperpolarize

Question 113The phosphodiesterase in rod and cone cells is PDE6. Sildafenil (Viagra) is a well known PDE5 inhibitor, but it has also been shown to partially inhibitor PDE6. A common side effect of Viagra is cyanopsia (blue vision), indicating that sildenafil somehow works differently on some cone cells than others. Given what you know from class, pick the most likely cause:
a) Sildenafil is a better inhibitor of PDE6 in S than it is in M and L cone cells
b) Sildenafil is a better inhibitor of PDE6 in L than it is in S and M cone cells

Question 114Blood is supplied to the rods, cones, bipolar cells, and ganglion via the retinal artery, which branches out into little arterioles, shown on the right. High intraocular pressure can collapse these arterioles, leading to the slow hypoxic death of ganglion cells (this is called ‘’glaucoma’’)This process begins farthest from the optic nerve, and slowly progresses inward. What would you expect to be symptoms of glaucoma?
a) Progressive loss of color vision around the focal pointb) Progressive loss of peripheral vision (both color and black/white)c) Progressive loss of color peripheral visiond) Progressive loss of black and white vision around the focal pointe) Progressive loss of all vision at the focal point

How about fluorescent sensing?Fuse two genes – Green Fluorescent protein and Calmodulin
-Genetically engineer to be expressed in some neurons, but not others
-when calcium is present, it binds to calmodulin, which changes shape, thus changing the shape of the GFP, thus changing the color of GFP
-can visualize synaptic activity

Sea turtles can sense electromagnetic fields
No one really understands how – best guess is that they use light to homolytically break a bond (probably in a cryptochrome) to form a radical pair-which then does some weird quantum mechanical thing
