1. What are the four classes of biological macromolecules? For each of the four classes, tell a) what they are made of (what's the monomer or building block), b) What they're used for, and c) give one example of each found in the human body (not a food!) What are ...

Acyl CoA compounds are important metabolic intermediates in cells and precursors of many biological macromolecules. With the development of research technology and the deepening of research level, the role of protein acylation modification in the regulation of TME has been gradually explored. Acetylation ...
Extension of biotechnology principles to cell-based production of therapeutic macromolecules has revolutionized the field of medicine in the types of active ingredient molecules and treatable indications. These therapies, known as biopharmaceuticals, are highly specific and highly efficacious. They are not ...

The local/topical materials list includes several classes of macromolecules used for procoagulant effects including carbohydrates, structural proteins, peptides, inorganics, and synthetic polymers. The intravenous therapeutics section includes small molecule drugs along with recombinant and human-derived proteins...
Cells can also oxidize other substrates like amino acids and fatty acids obtained from either the environment or the degradation of cellular macromolecules. As a result, the majority of ATP (yellow stars) is generated by oxidative phosphorylation. During proliferation (right), the large increase in...
2012). Cell wall degrading enzymes (CWDEs) are key virulence factors for pathogens as they help not only in host cell invasion but also facilitate the depolymerization of plant macromolecules to small molecules that can be acquired as nutrient resources by the pathogen (Fernandez et al. 2014)....
Polymers from each group play essential and ubiquitous roles in everyday life [4]. Moreover, some of them (exclusively non-toxic, biocompatible and physiologically inert macromolecules, accepted by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA)), have application in ...
Solvation is a ubiquitous phenomenon in the natural sciences. At the macroscopic level, it is well understood through thermodynamics and chemical reaction kinetics1,2. At the atomic level, the primary steps of solvation are the attraction and binding of
