Protein synthesis is the creation of proteins. In biological systems, it is carried out inside the cell. In prokaryotes, it occurs in the cytoplasm. In eukaryotes, it initially occurs in the nucleus to create a transcript (mRNA) of the coding region of the DNA. The transcript leaves the nu...
The process of protein synthesis serves as a method to produce proteins for the body. The process occurs in a few stages. First, the genetic code is copied from DNA in the nucleus to a molecule called mRNA. Then, transcription and translation will occur and with the help of aribosome, a...
TheBiuret testis used to detect the presence ofproteinsin a sample. The test is founded on the idea that copper ions in an alkaline solution can form a complex with the peptide bonds in proteins, resulting in a change in color, from blue to violet. ...

Liver function tests, or LFTs, include tests for bilirubin, a breakdown product of hemoglobin, and ammonia, a protein byproduct that is normally converted into urea by the liver before being excreted by the kidneys. LFTs also commonly include tests to measure levels of several enzymes, which ar...

An example of a carrier protein is the sodium potassium pump. This carrier protein uses ATP to move three sodium ions out of the cell and two potassium ions into the cell. What does a carrier protein do? A carrier protein moves molecules from one side of the plasma membrane to the other...

Homogeneous catalystsexist in the same phase as the reactants in the chemical reaction. Organometallic catalysts are one type of homogeneous catalyst. Enzymesare protein-based catalysts. They are one type ofbiocatalyst. Soluble enzymes are homogeneous catalysts, while membrane-bound enzymes are heterogen...
