    Structure and function have always had a close relationship in biological, chemical and general terms. Often the functionality is dependent upon the structure, for example the villi on the epithelial cells increase the surface area and hence the rate of absorbance of molecules in to cells and the blood stream. DNAs function is highly specific to its structure as even the smallest change to this could cause a long term effect, or even death. Base sequence mutations, errors in replication and…

    dopamine biosynthesis, do not function without coenzymes. The three coenzymes involved in the formation of dopamine are: tetrahydrofolic acid, used for L-tyrosine to L-dopa; Pyridoxal phosphate, used for L-dopa to dopamine; and NADH (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide + Hydrogen), used for the formation of tetrahydrofolic acid and pyridoxal phosphate. These three coenzymes are derivatives of vitamins either consumed or present in the…

    else's body has the same DNA. DNA is usually located in the cell nucleus (nuclear DNA),however small amounts of DNA can be found in the mitochondria (mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA). The DNA has information stored as a code created by four chemical bases: adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T). Each base is connected to a sugar molecule and phosphate molecule. All together it’s called a nucleotide. A nucleotides are set in two long strands creating a spiral effect called (double…

    Organisms present on the Gram film were obtained from patient sputum. This suggests that the organisms can be present either in the airways or in the lungs. Gram film shows Gram-positive (purple- dark colour) elongated oval shaped (cocci) cells. Bacteria are present as diplococci (pairs of cocci), nevertheless they also appeared as single cells and short chains of few cells (four cells chain is visible at the Gram film). Morphological appearance of bacteria, Gram stain and presence of the…

    The catechol estrogens can give rise to semiquinones and o-quinones by any oxidizing enzyme or transition metal ions such as Cu2+ or Fe3 [66, 67, 68]. ROS including superoxide anion radicals and hydroxyl radicals is generated when semiquinones are converted to o-quinones and o quinones are reduced back to catechols and semiquinones. These metal ions and hydroxyl radicals are responsible for oxidative damage to DNA, lipids and proteins [69, 70]. Sulfation of E2 leads to decreased hormonal…
