main function is said to be hydrolysis of peptides that enter the duodenum of the small intestine. As can be determined from its enzyme class, it has an active serine residue which is used to hydrolyze aromatic amino acids such as Phenylalanine, Tyrosine or Tryptophan at their C-terminus. The hydrophobic property of the enzyme pocket (1 per enzyme) is what attracts the aromatic amino acids for cleavage. The catalytic strategies used by chymotrypsin are covalent and acid-base catalysis which are…
INTRODUCTION The nervous systems are developed by the proliferation of progenitors in the epithelium, the specification of neurons and glia, the growth and guidance of axons and dendrites, and the development and refinement of electrical and chemical synapses. In the central nervous system (CNS), stem cells reside throughout life in the forebrain, continuing to generate neurons and glia in the subventricular zone (SVZ) surrounding the lateral ventricle and in the dentate gyrus of the…
Mandatory Vaccination, Or Parents Choice After learning I was pregnant with my oldest child I was asked the question that started it all.

The virus is mostly transmitted through direct contact with bodily fluids such as saliva and blood. Ebola can be difficult to detect in the beginning due to its…
