Proteins are made up of long chains of amino acids‚ just a chain of ami. tacids makes up the primary structure. The secondary structure is formed by hydrogen bonds joining the chains in certain places to make an alpha helix or a beta sheet. The tertiary structure is formed by even more folding and joining of the chains to make a globular mass or fibrous mass. An example of this would be a carrier protein. Proteins are needed for many things they are needed in our diet for growth and repair of cells

BIOS 255 WEEK 5 Lab 5 - Lymphatic System & Disease Resistance 1. Describe lymphatic system functions. The primary functions of the lymphatic system are to drain and return interstitial fluid to the blood to absorb and return lipids from the digestive system to the blood‚ and to filter fluid of pathogens‚ damaged cells‚ cellular‚ and cancerous cells to help protect against invasion. 2. Locate each of the following lymphatic vessels: right lymphatic duct‚ thoracic (left

Cardiovascular System: Blood Laszlo Vass‚ Ed.D. Version 42-0007-00-01 Purpose Explain why you did this lab and what if any safety precautions needed to be followed. For this lab I had to prick my finger‚ then with the bleach solution I had to dab it and then carefully drop the blood on the slide. Once I was finished I had to take the second slide and smear the blood. I had to let the slide dry. Then I had to prick my finger again and make 3 more slides. Then I had to mix the chemical

The objective of the experiment was to differentiate mammalian C2C12 cells into muscle cells and analyze for presence of myosin light chain. Utilizing Western Blotting techniques and using specific antibodies helped to detect myosin light chain. The hypothesis was that proliferating myoblasts could be induced to initiate the differentiation process by depriving the cells of the necessary growth factors and that the differentiation is characterized by the expression of muscle-specific proteins. The

type is determined by a combination of two antibodies and two antigens; namely antigen A‚ antigen B‚ Anti A‚ and Anti B. The surface antigens A‚ B‚ and Rh are the most important. Blood type A has only antigen A‚ but cannot produce Anti-A antibodies because this will cause a self destruction of their blood. However‚ B type blood can be injected into their systems. Type B has antigen B‚ Type AB has both A & B antigens‚ but do not make ABO antibodies. Because their blood doesn’t discriminate against

mixture of any number of proteins while at the same time giving you information about the size of the protein. It does not matter whether the protein has been synthesized in vivo or in vitro. However‚ this method does require the use of a high-quality antibody directed against a desired protein. During western blotting procedures‚ generally‚ proteins are solubilized with detergents and reducing agents‚ and then are separated in polyacrylamide gels. After the separation‚ the pattern of proteins from the

Lupus is an autoimmune disease that occurs when your body’s immune system attacks your own tissue and organs. Inflammations caused by lupus can affect many different body systems such as your joints‚ kidneys‚ skin‚ blood cells‚ brain‚ heart and lungs. There are two kinds of Lupus‚ Discoid Lupus Erythematous (DLE) and Systemic Lupus Erythematous (SLE). Lupus is a disease of flare ups‚ Lupus is not contagious. Consequently‚ the main focus of the review is to outline symptoms‚ treatment‚ trigger points

overcome this‚ a very common strategy is to use secondary molecules such as antibodies‚ to capture the target protein on the surface. An antibody that recognizes the membrane protein of interest can be immobilized covalently on the surface and subsequently capture the target protein when it is injected. Opposite to covalent immobilization‚ where proteins are immobilized randomly‚ the availability of monoclonal antibodies directed against specific epitopes on the target protein makes it possible to
