The primary structure of a protein is the specific number and order of amino acids that make up the protein chain, called a polypeptide, a simple protein molecule. The individual amino acids are linked together with a peptide bond between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amine gr...
peptide linkage hydrolysis, breaking carbon bonds,andthe conversion of substances to their optical isomers. In these reactions, enzymes may or may not function alone, enzymes may need the assistance of acofactor. Aholoenzymeor an active enzyme is a complex that consists of two parts: the protein...
This information directs ribosomes to link small amino acids together forming a specific protein. Proteins are important components of many biological structures, such as tissues and organs. They form hormones and enzymes that carry signals between different cells as well as control chemical reactions...
Water is absorbed down the osmotic gradient by principal cells, through the apical aquaporin-2 (AQP-2) and basolateral aquaporin-3 and aquaporin-4 (Fig. 63-3).Renal tubular reabsorption of filtered Na+-Cl– is regulated by multiple circulating and paracrine hormones, in addition to the ...

Some of the functions of the glycoproteins include protecting the epithelial cells, release glycoprotein hormones from the anterior pituitary gland like follicle stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, thyroid stimulating hormone, and human chorionic gonadotropin. They aid in cell adhesion, as cellular mar...
