What is a membrane-bound network that processes proteins and lipids called? What are the major component of cell membranes? Which molecule allows the transport of charged substances across the plasma membrane? Which type of lipid is a major component of cell membranes? What are the componen...
Which molecule(s) contain(s) polar covalent bonds, but is(are) nonpolar? Water (H2O) is being converted from a liquid to a gas. What intermolecular forces must be overcome? What is D in gas laws? What are van der Waals forces?
New module: Molecule Cloud View The "Molecule Cloud View" module allows you to visualize a group of molecules as their respective van der Waals surfaces within 3D datasets, specifying their positions and orientations. To use this feature, you need a molecule template, such...
During this process, each unique DNA molecule in the library is bound to the surface of a bead or a flow-cell and PCR amplified to create a set of identical clones. In the case of Ion Torrent technology, a process called “templa...
Are biosimilars the same as a generic? A biosimilar is not considered a “generic” in the same way that a traditional, small molecule drug (for example: ibuprofen or acetaminophen) is determined to be a generic. Biosimilars are "similar" because they are biologics that do not have to be ...
The inhibition of the mortalin molecule results in the suppression of medullary thyroid cancer cells, inducing apoptosis and the downregulation of RET. Due to its similar effects, the agent MKT-077 may be used as a molecular therapy in MTC. Unfortunately, this molecule is toxic to animals. ...
Multidrug-resistant bacteria are of critical importance and a problem for human health and food preservation; the discovery of new antimicrobial substances to control their proliferation is part of the solution. This work reports on 57 antagonistic Aeromonas strains, of which 38 strains were antagonisti...
An enzyme is a large molecule but only a small part of the molecule is involved in catalysis. This part is called the active site. Each enzyme has a specific function; to break down a specific substance. This is called the enzyme’s substrate. At the active site, the enzyme and substrat...
To successfully catalyze an inflammatory reaction and achieve naïve cell activation and expansion, three binding signals must occur at the same time: TCR binding, cytokine signaling, and the binding of a co-stimulatory molecule, such as CD28. Cytokines and co-stimulatory molecules bolster the ef...
it is still considered a molecule. There are small molecules and large molecules, ranging from the most basic H2 molecule, containing only two hydrogen atoms, to a complexDNAmacromolecule, which consists of millions of base pairs and atoms, “molecule” is a word that applies to a huge variet...
