A) sunlight B) protein C) fat D) carbohydrate E) nucleic acid Is the fourth type of macromolecule (the nucleic acids) essential to our diet? why? What are the four layers of proteins, and their functions? For each of the following four macromolecules, list their: i) Monomer(s...
The receptor-binding site is located in a C-terminal disulphide-bonded loop of each pilin monomer, but functional binding sites are displayed only at the tip of the pilus. A factor complicating vaccination is that different bacterial strains produce distinct, and sometimes highly divergent, pilin...
Lipases catalyze the reformation of TAG from fatty acids in enterocytes. True or False? If false, alter the sentence to make it true. Determine whether the following statement is true or false: Maltose is a disaccharide. Determi...
of another vinyl monomer. Typical examples of the other vinyl monomer which may be used as a comonomer to be reacted with (β-methyl)glycidyl (meth)acrylate are one or more of the following: styrene, (meth)acrylic acid esters (e.g., methyl methacrylate), fumaric acid diesters, acrylonitri...
processes of chitosan occur according to various mechanisms: acid hydrolysis, oxidation and reduction reactions and a specific mechanism involving nitric acid (III), and are nonspecific methods, as they lead to the production of various types of oligomers and a large amount of d-glucosamine monomer...
3.1. Direct Effect of Glycosylation Whole sugar chains, such as N-glycans or specific carbohydrate structures, affect intracellular transport, ligand binding, oligomerization and signaling of the receptors [15,95]. Using N-glycosylation inhibitors, such as tunicamycin, or N-glycosylation sites ...
At least three isoforms exist, which typically possess two N-linked and one or more O-linked glycans per monomer.2 The enzyme requires zinc, and magnesium or calcium divalent ions for activity. Unit Definition One DEA unit will hydrolyze 1 μmole of 4-nitrophenyl phosphate per minute at pH ...
