Identify the functional groups in each of the following molecules: (a) Methionine, an amino acid: (b) Ibuprofen, a pain reliever: (c) Capsaicin, the pungent substance in chili peppers: What are the names of the amino acids that have ionizable groups? What functional group gives a...
Functional groups are attached to the carbon backbone of organic molecules. They determine the characteristics and chemical reactivity of molecules. Functional groups are far less stable than the carbon backbone and are likely to participate in chemical reactions. Six common biological functional groups ...
Quoting Wikipedia, "functional groups are specific groups (moieties) of atoms or bonds within molecules that are responsible for the characteristic chemical reactions of those molecules. The same functional group will undergo the same or similar chemical reaction(s) regardless of the size of the ...
Monomers carrying functional groups are called functional monomers. Functional monomers help in the selective binding with the target molecules in the cavity of MIP [9]. In the MIP synthesis, which follows the self-assembly approach (non-covalent approach), the functional monomers are used in ...
functional groups. Hydrogels were formed using sufficiently low concentrations of tether molecules to maintain constant physical characteristics, encapsulation of hMSCs in three dimensions prevented changes in cell morphology, and hMSCs were shown to differentiate in normal growth media, indicating that the ...
The lack of a long and strict sequence constraint also explains why one miRNA can often bind to several target mRNA molecules (in animals, usually in the 3' untranslated regions, 3' UTRs), and why a given mRNA may contain multiple miRNA-binding sites. The result of this is that ...
Because new DNA functions always involve interactions with other chemical and biological molecules, they allow the generation of ‘smart’ nanoscale architectures; the assembly and function of these architectures are responsive to chemical or biological stimuli, in much the same way that biomaterials are...
Tinospora cordifolia (Willd.) Hook.f. & Thomson, also known as Giloy, is among the most important medicinal plants that have numerous therapeutic applications in human health due to the production of a diverse array of secondary metabolites. To gain
In vascular networks, the transport across different vessel walls regulates chemical compositions in blood over space and time. Replicating such trans-wall transport with spatial heterogeneity can empower synthetic fluidic systems to program fluid compos
