There are many reasons why enzymes have such a high specificity. The first variable is an enzyme’s primary structure. A primary structure is just a combination of amino acids. There are twenty different amino acids that the primary structure can be created from. Every enzyme has a different order that the acids are placed in and each one has a different number or amino acids. The slightest change in this structure can affect a protein’s conformation and function. The secondary structure is a regular

Premium Liver Cirrhosis Cancer
Liver Cancer‚ each year about 700‚000 people worldwide will be diagnosed; 600‚000 will die. Cancer is very serious‚ although liver cancer is not the leading most fatal cancer. Malignant tumors in the liver are usually hepatomas. Hepatomas are also known hepatocellular carcinomas or HCC. These HCC’s are only responsible for two to four percent of cancer. HCC’s are also not common in the U.S. They are found mostly in the Asia region of the world. Liver cancer is also found in children but is commonly

caused when cells take up foreign genetic material. Avery’s Experiments In 1944‚ a series of experiments showed that the activity of the material responsible for transformation is not affected by protein-destroying enzymes. The activity is stopped‚ however‚ by a DNA-destroying enzyme. Thus‚ almost 100 years after Mendel’s experiments‚ Oswald Avery and his co-workers demonstrated that DNA is the material responsible for transformation. Viral Genes and DNA In 1952‚ Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase

Big Idea 2 Biological systems utilize free energy and molecular building blocks to grow‚ to reproduce and to maintain dynamic homeostasis. Living systems require both free energy and matter to maintain order‚ grow and reproduce. Organisms employ various strategies to capture‚ use and store free energy and other vital resources. Energy deficiencies are not only detrimental to individual organisms; they also can cause disruptions at the population and ecosystem levels. Biological systems must both
