Describe the catabolism of fatty acids: activation, transport to nucleus and reactions of oxidation of fatty acids. Describe the chemical structure of a lipid. Differentiate between saturated and unsaturated lipids. Which fat is bad for you: saturated or unsaturated ...
What is the process of altering the shape of a protein without breaking the amide bonds that form the primary structure? A) Hydrolysis. B) Competitive inhibition. C) Denaturation. D) Oxidation. Arginine, the most basic of the 20 common amino aci...
These enzymes are involved in the biological oxidation of organic matter, enhancing energy provision to the rhizosphere microbiota and strengthening it (Nannipieri et al., 2003). The occurrence of N. glauca under drought conditions resulted also in higher relative abundances of the methylerythritol ...
Since studies of energy coupling and transport kinetics are complicated in vivo, we purified the major lysine transporter (Lyp1) of yeast and reconstituted the protein into lipid vesicles. We show that the Michaelis constant (KM) of transport from out-to-in is well in the millimolar range and...

Explain beta-oxidation of fats. Explain the beta-oxidation of fats. Describe the structure and functions of proteins. How do proteins perform the roles? Describe the role of Vitamin A in preventing blindness. Explain everything that happens when food is consumed through t...
In the citric acid cycle, how many molecules of ATP, NADH, and FADH 2 are generated as a result of the oxidation of one molecule of pyruvate? Name three products generated by the citric acid cycle. How does the Krebs Cycle work?
1. Describe how triglycerides can be used in oxidative phosphorylation. 2. Describe the pathway of beta-oxidation and the products it produces. Poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, which results in a high blood glucose, often causes glucose to be found in the urine. Explain this...
b) What by-product is formed by the oxidation of the coenzymes? The greater the concentration of hydrogen ions, the lower the pH, Explain. What effect did the increasing extracellular concentration of K+ have on the resting membrane potential? Why? Expl...
Two molecules of alcohol react with each other in an acidic medium to form ether. During ether formation, the OH group of one alcohol gets protonated and becomesOH2+, thus becoming a good leaving group. Then, the OH group of ano...
