Polymer Principles Four classes of macromolecules: Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Nucleic Acids Polymers are made up of smaller parts called monomers. Polymers are formed through condensation reactions. Polymers are broken apart through a hydrolysis reaction. General Information about Carbohydrates Are important...
Although the ATPase component was annotated as a Daunorubicin resistance protein, alignments of the Daunorubicin (DNR) resistance genes DrrA and DrrB from Streptomyces peucetius [29] did not reveal a high degree of similarity between the respective protein sequences (DrrA: 32% identity, 53% positi...
After innumerable tugs of war between chance and necessity, evolution produced the familiar macromolecules that we observe today. In Section 2.2, we turn to how the concept of lyfe can change our approaches to investigations of the origins of life....
