What is the monomer (building block unit) of Lipids? What type of macromolecule class are cell receptors? What is the monomer? DNA and RNA are macromolecules made up of monomeric subunits called [___] and bound together by [___] bonds...
What is the name of the monomer that makes up proteins? Biomolecules are polymers that are formed when are joined by a reaction. a. monomers, dehydration synthesis b. multimers, dehydration synthesis c. subunits, reduction d. monomers, hydrolysis Wh...
• We reviewed the unique properties of RNA as a polymer. • We reviewed the current methods for the construction of RNA nanostructures. • We reviewed the material and biomedical applications of RNA nanostructures. Summary The value of polymers is manifested in their vital use as building ...
A polymer is a macromolecule composed of smaller repeating subunits called monomers/oligomers. In the SLA 3D printing process, the resin (ink) is composed of photosensitive monomers/oligomers capable of undergoing photopolymerization on exposure to light to form polymers. Therefore, the photopolymers ar...
Each IFT train is a polymer of two large complexes IFT-A and IFT-B with molecular weight of ~0.8 MDa and 1 MDa, respectively5. The IFT-B complex comprises of a 10-subunit core subcomplex IFT-B1 and a 6-subunit peripheral subcomplex IFT-B2, mediating the anterograde trafficking (toward...
Cytokinesis is the final step of the cell division cycle that leads to the formation of two new cells. Successful cytokinesis requires significant remodelling of the plasma membrane by spatially distinct β- and γ-actin networks. These networks are gene
Some molecular structures should not overlap, others (drug vs. protein) overlap as part of their function, others (fibrin, actin) assemble into repeated structures. In some cases, the distances between individual elements is known but their 3D layout is not. Supporting all of these cases will ...
Fibrin is a viscoelastic polymer, sharing mechanical properties with both elastic solids and viscous liquids. These viscoelastic properties are physiologically important because of fibrin’s role in performing the mechanical task of stemming blood flow (Fig.6). The elastic component contributes to in-ph...
Genomic DNA is constantly exposed to damage. Among the lesion in DNA, double-strand breaks (DSB), because they disrupt the two strands of the DNA double he
This alphabetical chemistry dictionary offers definitions and examples of important chemistry and chemical engineering terms. For each term, a brief definition is given, and each link leads to a more comprehensive discussion of the word. From absolute alcohol, which refers to the common name for hig...
