Each of these enzymes requires a chemical “friend”, known as a cofactor. One of the most important enzymes, the one that actually enables the oxidation of glucose, requires thiamine and magnesium as its cofactors. Chemical energy cannot be produced without thiamine and magnesium, although it al...

Copper (Cu) is a growth enhancer and antimicrobial as well as being a cofactor for many enzymes, e.g., cytochrome oxidase, lysyl oxidase, tyrosinase, p-hydroxyphenyl pyruvate hydrolase, dopamine beta hydroxylase, and copper-zinc superoxide dismutase [40]. Birds fed diets deficient in Cu may su...
Niacin, or vitamin B3, is another essential vitamin that can prolong the lifespan of nerves. It also helps fight nerve inflammation which further promotes their functions and prevents damage. iv. Thiamine Also known as vitamin B1, thiamine is acoenzyme in carbohydrate metabolism, which is the ma...
Which of the following is a fat-soluble vitamin? a) Ascorbic acid b) Tocopherol c) Thiamine d) Riboflavin In what form are lipids absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract? How are they absorbed? Please be detailed and include enzymes and carriers used t...
It secretes protease, phospholipase and lipase enzymes into the substrate it is attached to as a feeding mechanism. The broken down substrate will release glucose which is then sucked up like roots on a tree sucking water. Candida albicansprefers carbohydrates and does require biotin for growth. ...
Type I PKSs, known as modular/iterative, are multicatalytic enzymes, which give rise to known natural products, such as macrolides (erythromycin) and polyenes (nystatin). On the other hand, type II aromatic PKSs are mono and bifunctional enzymes that interact during the synthesis of polycyclic...
Uses of Biotin Biotin is a vital vitamin in all organisms though numerous plants and mammals are incapable of synthesizing it. This vitamin is a cofactor for 5 key enzymes namely known as carboxylases, enzymes considered essential for metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. ...
According to a previous study from this laboratory [76], Shanma lay- ing ducks require diets containing 90 mg Mn/kg from 17 to 36 wk of age in order to optimize their antioxi- dant defense system. Iron (Fe) is required to produce hemoglobin and to activate several enzymes, such as ...
