Explain a Scatchard plot and how it could be used in a biochemistry problem? Discuss what residual volume is as used in gaseous exchange. What is the function of methylene blue in the reductase test for milk quality? What is the function of beta-carotene ketolase? W...
H2A.Z.1 is preferentially incorporated in promoter regions and has a serine at position 38; H2A.Z.2.1 is enriched at AT-rich enhancers and has a threonine at position 38. Gene activation is represented by green “+”, and gene silencing is indicated by red “-“ circles. Acetylation = ...
Malaria has inflicted serious morbidity and mortality across the globe. The major brunt of the disease has been on African, South-East Asian and South American countries. Proportionally, malaria has attracted global research priorities and this is eviden
Lamin A has a role in the compartmentalization of telomeres in the nucleus, and loss of lamin A results in telomere shortening and affects the epigenetic status of constitutive heterochromatin. Article CAS PubMed PubMed Central Google Scholar Scaffidi, P. & Misteli, T. Reversal of the ...
Furthermore, compartmentalization and gradients result in its quantitation only as an average. The sources of extracellular H 2 O 2 , particularly in plasma, will also be described briefly. The major question addressed here however, is the actual concentration of H 2 O 2 in plasma, which has...
The above described CTE extends into the hinge region, which also contains a nuclear localization signal, and influences cellular compartmentalization of ER, as well as sites of post-translation modifications (Kim et al. 2006). Current mechanisms suggest this non-conserved and ID domain is important...
shoot tip and the place of bending in the shoot below [1]. Today we know that what Darwin called ‘certain influence’ [1] is the phytohormone auxin, which is synthesized in the coleoptile tip, where light is sensed, and transported down to the appropriate site of action in the shoot ...
studies. In fact, the way ubiquitin signals are decoded in cells may be influenced by multiple factors, including the pres- ence of tandem copies of one UBD in the same protein, oligomerization, and protein compartmentalization (reviewed ...
The purpose of this review is to identify the interpretive limits of cellular biochemistry using, largely, the tools of physical chemistry. We illustrate this approach using two major concepts in cancer: carcinogenicity and cancer recurrences. Cells optimize the chemical performance of enzymes and ...
The central protein in the oncogenic circuitry is the Ras GTPase that has been under intense scrutiny for the last four decades. From its discovery as a viral oncogene and its non-oncogenic contribution to crucial cellular functioning, an elaborate genetic, structural, and functional map of Ras ...
