Cystatin F is a protein that inhibits the activity of certain proteases. You are curious if it plays a role in regulating the proteases located within lysosomes in natural killer cells so you use a fluorophore-labeled antibody to stain cystatin F and a LysoTracker fluorescent dye to stain for lysosomes. Based on the image, briefly explain why you do or do not think that Cystatin F could interact with lysosomal proteases.

Neuropeptides are small proteins/peptides that must be released by neurons so they can communicate with other (post-synaptic) cells.  A. What type(s) of amino acid signal sequence(s) would you expect to find on a neuropeptide? B. After these neuropeptides have been released, they are frequently collected and reused by the same neurons. What must happen to the neuropeptides in order for them to be reused? (Describe what happens to them after they have been secreted.)
