electric field in which the protein moves in the gel based on size as well as in electric charge. The electrophoretic mobility of small molecules is greater than that of large molecules with the same charge density. The running buffer used in this experiment is at pH 8.6 whit has a higher isoelectric point that makes most of the proteins negative. Negative charged molecules migrate through…

and the protein which helps in the transfer of molecules across the membrane. Phospholipids are the main molecules of the cell membrane. It forms a bilayer in which their hydrophilic (attracted to water) head areas are arranged to face the cytosol (liquid part of the cell) and hydrophobic (repel water) tail areas face outside the cytosol. The lipid bilayer is semi-permeable allowing certain molecules and ions to pass through it. Carbohydrate molecules are also dispersed…

Background info: DNA is in everyone’s body. So how would you tell the different DNA of each person from each other? Sure DNA is unique, but how can you measure it and look at it? If you were able to see the DNA cut up, could you tell from the pieces and sizes , which DNA belongs to which person? You can, using gel electrophoresis. Gel electrophoresis separates DNA fragments in accordance to their size. In the place of DNA, you could use food coloring to see if it works. With gel electrophoresis,…

nuclear processes). Electron motion is responsible for the emission of light and photosynthesis in plants. Electron motion across biological molecules transports information in our nerves and is involved in processing this information in our brains. Moreover, the valence electrons are responsible for binding atoms to form molecules. The structural change of molecule is triggered by motion of electrons in the chemical bonds. Controlling this fast electron motion, in turn, allows to control the…

work by inhibiting synthesis of the cell wall (Calderon & Sabundayo 2007). However, instead of inhibiting the PBP enzymes responsible for catalysing peptidoglycan cross-linkage, glycopeptides such as vancomycin target the peptidoglycan precursor molecules (Geisel, Schmitz, Fluit, & Labischinski 2001). The terminal D-alanine on these precursors binds to the vancomycin, and so loses its affinity for the PBPs. As such,it cannot undergo transpeptidation,a vital step in peptidoglycan cross-linkage in…

reactants – everything always likes to go towards the most stable, or lowest energy. In the upword slope, thre reactant molecules are coming together and breaking apart. Separating atoms in the reactant molecules requires bonds to be broken so this part of the reaction absorbs energy In the downward slope, the product molecules are forming and moving apart. Producing product molecules involved forming bonds, so this part of the reaction release energy. Thre are some endothermic reaction that…

reaction scheme of alkaline phosphatase (11). Under the hydrolysis reaction, free phosphate and an alcohol molecule are released from the active site. The rate-determining step of this reaction is pH dependent. Transphosphorylation has similar initiate steps as hydrolysis. However, phosphate cannot exit the active site, and it will transfer to an acceptor. This will form a new phosphomonoester molecule. Figure 3: Two metal ions catalysis mechanism of E. coli alkaline phosphatase (9). Zn(II)…

by 120o. Each unit has seven closely packed alpha helical segments, with each alpha helix containing 20-25 predominantly hydrophobic residues with one covalently attached retinal molecule. (White, 1994). The seven transmembrane α-helices are typical of all G-protein coupled receptors. (Lanyi, 1998) The retinal molecule is covalently attached to Lys-216 on helix G by a protonated Schiff base. The location and positioning of the retinal group was discovered using medium-resolution diffraction…

around 70 degrees Fahrenheit, and few contractors will attempt to apply sealants if the temperature is below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Higher temperatures mean that the movement of the water molecules in the sealant are moving faster, which speeds evaporation. However, if the temperatures are too high, the water molecules can become hyper-excited and take some of the sealant with them before the sealant can form a proper bond to the pavement. Alpha Paving Knows Sealcoating In terms of total…

The examination, called LHCb trial, is one of seven molecule material science indicator tests in the particle smasher. The LHC united several researchers from around the globe to cooperatively think about information from the atom smasher with an end goal to comprehend what happened after the Big Bang that…
