The biosynthesis of biologically active compounds is developmentally controlled and it depends upon a variety of environmental stimuli and conditions. Inorganic phosphate (Pi) usually negatively regulates biologically-active molecule production in Actinomycetes, while it has been reported to have a positive ...
deoxyglucoseWhich of the following is not a component of nucleotides: - deoxyglucose - inorganic phosphate - nitrogenous base - deoxyriboseWhich base pairs with adenine in a DNA molecule? (a) thymine (b) adenosine (c) cytosine (d) uracil...
Give examples of inorganic compounds. The necessary components for gene expression are often described as either cis-acting elements (acting from the same molecule) or trans-acting factors (acting from a different molecule). Cis-act...
Calcinosis Phosphate Calcification 1. Introduction Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is an element of essential importance for skeletal mineralization, mineral homeostasis, and a wide range of cellular processes involving signaling and synthesis of energy-generating compounds. Pi dietary intake, renal and intestinal...
mimicking a molecule from nature to obtain a pesticide/herbicide (such as glyphosate), providing functionality to obtain a catalytic action, usually together with a transition metal ion, usually by providing a lone pair, i.e. acting as a Lewis base, such as in hydrocarbonylation (i.e., poly...
(C) Example snapshot of LEGO-1 molecule (cyan) buried inside the membrane (PE—red, PG—green) and allowing water to penetrate. Orange spheres indicate phosphate and phosphonate groups of phospholipids and LEGO-1, respectively. (A) and (B) were produced using VMD software and (C) using ...
Such PNP-mediated breakdown of inosine is energetically more efficient than free ribose metabolism, as it only requires inorganic phosphate, whereas the latter must have ATP. We found that the ribose derived from inosine was catabolized efficiently through the central carbon metabolic routes, including...
(GNATs) using acetyl-CoA as a donor molecule for lysine acetylation5,6,7,8. These enzymes structurally resemble mammalian GNATs in their active site architecture5,7,9,10,11,12. Bacterial GNATs are classified into several different subgroups depending on the presence of additional C- and/or N...
A monomer is a molecule that serves as the building block of larger molecules called polymers. One example of monomers is nucleotides. Nucleotides are made up of a sugar-phosphate complex and a nitrogenous base. There are two main groups of nitro...
How many ATP molecules are produced from one glucose molecule? What is the net ATP that is synthesised, when one molecule of glucose is fermented to alcohol or lactic acid? What is ATP synthase? a. Is a protein complex that adds an inorganic phosphate to ADP to generate ATP b. Is a pr...
