Protein structure

Organizational structure points out how individuals and teamwork are coordinated inside an organization. To reach your goals and objectives work needs to be coordinated and managed. As a manager for a professional soccer team back in Norway, organizational structures are vital for me to keep developing my business. There are mainly four aspects of structure that we use. They are centralization, formalization, hierarchical levels and departmentalization. My organization consists of me as the…

(y-axis) of five protein bovine gamma globulin standard solutions. In order to prepare each of these standards within a range of 50 microliters to 1200 microliters and using a provided stock solution of 1.46 mg/mL of the protein bovine gamma globulin (IgG) different calculations were performed in order to find out the exact…

managing a large force can be similar to managing a small force. It is a matter of organization and structure. To direct and control a large force are similar to directing and controlling a small force. It is a matter of communications and formations. This theory is derived from Chapter 5 of Sun Tzu Art of War: Forces. This theory is talking about the importance of the organization and structure in military and illustrates the principle of direction and control are similar doesn’t matter how big…

Alkaline phosphatase (AP) is a homodimeric enzyme complex that is commonly found in a wide range of organisms, from bacteria to all tissues of the human body. AP is a zinc metalloenzyme (1), in which metal ions play a key role in the regulation of catalytic activities and stabilization of enzyme-substrate complex. As proposed by Gettins and Coleman using NMR studies (10), each active site of AP comprises of three metal binding sites, which acknowledged as M1, M2, and M3. Two zinc ions bind to…

Due to limited time constraints and having lab only once a week this lab was broken up into five periods, the last one specifically to go over the results. Day one consisted of extraction of plasmid DNA, which we used Resuspension Buffer to break up our pellet after removing the supernatant (liquid) after centrifuging our overnight culture. Then Lysis Buffer was used to break down the membrane of the cells so that we could then add Neutralization Buffer to bring our sample from basic to neutral…

molecular mechanism of invasion, survival and pathogenesis. F.alocis ATCC 35896 and D-62D strain have variation in their protein profile. F.alocis genome has a total of 15 different proteases. These proteases may be membrane bound or extracellular. Among membrane bound proteases CaaX proteases are present in both the strains. In S.gordonii these proteases are known to play a role in protein transportion and protection of bacteria from bacteriocins. Protease HMPREF0389_00122 is present in the…

modification and secretory expression like in higher eukaryotes. An increasing number of yeast strains are available for protein expression that are said to increase the yield of the protein, improves the affinity tagging of the proteins, reduces protein breakdown, allows the addition of non-native amino acids (Selenomethionine) into the protein and defines the composition of N-glycan in the protein produced. Following are the existing genera of yeast…

Fingernails are capable of showing sicknesses or diseases that are happening inside the human body. The plate of the nail is made of a protein named “keratin” which is transparent and flexible but durable enough to retain a shape and protect the nail bed. Underneath the nail plate is the nail bed which is composed of two parts, the dermis and the epidermis. The purpose of the nail bed is to house the nail matrix, which grows the nail and stabilize the nail’s foundation. The nail plate and nail…

The question my group tried to answer was “Which protein solution contained protein, starch, and sugar, and if so how much?” The protein supplements we had were supplments 4 (Kroger Whey & Soy Protein- Vanilla),6 (Vega Protein and Greens) ,and 8 (Pure Protein Natural Whey Protein). We also had 3 reagents (Biuret’s, Lugol’s ,and Benedict’s). We had two different experiments, the first experiment was to get qualitative data. The second was to get quantitative date. The first experiment we tested…

Movement of cells are important since some cells depends on movement to carry out its major function. For example, sperm cells need to move from one place to another place to carry out reproduction. Movement of cells are supported by cytoskeleton system of the cells. The cyctoskeleton system are composed of microtubules, microfilaments and intermediate filaments. However, for unicellular organisms such as Paramecium, the movement of cells are regulated through cilia or flagella. Cilia can be…
