What is the disaccharide composed of two glucose molecules? Nucleic acids a) Are called nucleic acids because they only exist in the nucleus of the cell b) Have hydrogen bonds that dictate pairing of cytosine to guanine and adenine to thymine ( or uracil) in RNA...
The simple sugar glucose is an example of a a) polysaccharide b) glycogen c) monosaccharide d) fatty acid e) lipid What are the building blocks for protein? a) Amino acids b) Disaccharides c) Nucleotides d) Triglycerides Which of the following options is co...
They are composed of two subunits (α and β), linked non-covalently. There are at least 18 α- and 8 β-subunits and these can form at least 25 different integrin heterodimers (Figure 13.6). Depending on the particular αβ combination, they may bind to either ICAMs, VCAM-1, or Mad...
carbohydrate,saccharide,sugar- an essential structural component of living cells and source of energy for animals; includes simple sugars with small molecules as well as macromolecular substances; are classified according to the number of monosaccharide groups they contain ...
What molecule connects the sugars in a strand of DNA? 1) Ribose 2) Phosphate 3) Deoxyribose 4) Hydrogen What enzyme is responsible for unzipping the DNA strand for replication? A. topoisomerase B. DNA polymerase C. helicase D...
The low water solubility of the lipids is responsible for their higher survival rate during sedimentation compared to other biogenic compound classes such as amino acids or sugars. The analysis of lipids and their conversion products in geological samples is a major objective of molecular organic ...
Micromolecular form of sugars is the only form that produces energy. Food usually contains complex carbohydrates, not glucose micromolecules. Therefore, bodies of living organisms break down carbohydrate polymers to glucose monomers in order to get ATP to produce energy during cellular respiration. ...
Simplest in structure among GAGs, hyaluronan (HA) is a regular polymer of disaccharides, composed of glu- curonic acid and N-acetylglucosamine linked via alternating β-1,4 and β-1,3 glycosidic bonds, that can reach a contour length of several micrometers. The functional diversity of...
Metabolic abnormalities lead to the dysfunction of metabolic pathways and metabolite accumulation or deficiency which is well-recognized hallmarks of diseases. Metabolite signatures that have close proximity to subject’s phenotypic informative dimension
To date, various sweeteners have been developed as alternatives for sugars (also referred to as sucrose), which have held an important center position of sweetener since ancient times, and many kinds of sweetener can be used for foods. The sweeteners are largely grouped into two kinds: sugar-...
