proteins. For the first part, you must observe egg albumin solution before heating and what happen to the solution after heating. Second part, first placed 3 ml of egg albumin solution in a test tube and carefully add 20 drops of concentrated nitric acid, while holding the test…

Report on Result and Discussion on isolation of protein from spinach leaves In this experiment, we tried isolating an actual protein called Rubisco from spinach leaves. The full meaning of these Rubisco means Ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase which is an enzyme that catalyzes the addition of a carbondioxide group to ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate during sugar production in green plants. Although Rubisco is an abundant protein in plants, it is not the major component in all spinach…

Biology Matching Terms DNA- is the replication of your parents and ancestors genes RNA- is the transcription of dna, ribonucleic acid; guides protein synthesis. Translation- process in which RNA is synthesized from the template DNA. Transcription- process in which RNA attaches to the ribosome and a protein is assembled. Replication- method of DNA replication in which parental strands separate, act as templates, and produce molecules of DNA with one parental DNA strand and one new DNA strand.…

MuSK consists of fourteen exons and is found on chromosome 4 in mice and on chromosome 9 in humans. The structure of MuSK is divided between the extracellular region, transmembrane domain (TM), juxtamembrane domain (JM) and a catalytic domain. The extracellular region includes four immunoglobulin-like domains (Ig) and between the two last one a cysteine-rich domain (C6) represented in Figure 6B. Then it follows the TM, which is located in the membrane of the muscle fiber, the JM and the tyrosine…

The human body has many amazing qualities and so many of them are made up of small proteins. Keratin is the main component of your hair, skin, and nails. Integrin acts a sort of messenger. Cadherin acts a binder, creating the structure of cells. So many different proteins help make the world turn waiting the human body, but they do different things. These are three important proteins. Keratin to is very important to the human body. Keratin is a big factor in making up your…

Prokaryotes There are two types of organisms based cell types: Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic. Prokaryotic cells are divided into two parts: Bacteria and Archaea. Prokaryotes are much smaller than eukaryotes. Prokaryotes contain a single loop of chromosomal DNA which is stored in nucleoid. Eukaryotes DNA is found on tightly bound and organised chromosomes. Genetic expression is the process where genotypes coded in the genes are displayed by the phenotypes of the individuals. The DNA is then copied…

As briefly mentioned before, atropine acts as an antagonist on acetylcholine because its chemical structure is similar to acetylcholine. Thus, structure is an important feature of the atropine molecule that is imperative to understanding its effects on the body. Although today’s chemists know the chemical structure of atropine, the conformational flexibility of the molecule is still poorly understood. A conformation is any three-dimensional arrangement of atoms within a molecule that results…

1. Most aquaporins have a similar structural arrangement, consisting of a similar fold. This fold contains helices encasing a small water-conducting channel where water is able to arrange in a singular line. There are cytoplasmic and extracellular loops immersing into the membrane through opposing sides, and form two smaller helices creating a psedo transmembrane segment. Within the membrane, there are four aquaporin molecules forming a homo-tetramer, creating a fifth channel; the channel is…

fish as the major source of this essential amino acids. I tend to like grilled fish not fried fish so I realized that tuna salad was the only way I had fish and was worried that I was not getting this amino acids. After doing a research and realizing that fish is just one type of meat that has omega 3 amino acids, I made it my goal to not worry about not eating fish but try and eat the kinds of foods that can provide me with the amount of Amino acids that I need. Anyways fish can get…

S.aureus can be sensitized to B-lactams by preventing WTA biosynthesis through inactivation of TarO, which catalyses the first step of the WTA pathway(Maki,Campbell). This identified WTA biosynthesis as an attractive target for novel strategies to treat MRSA. WTAs are structurally diverse anionic polymers covalently attached to PG(Vollmer,Swoboda) and in S.aureus consist of a polyribitol-phosphate backbone of 11-40 repeating units(Xia10) decorated with three tailoring modifications:…
