1 diabetes and is very physically active. An example of a healthy day of eating for Jason would be three meals that do not individually exceed 60 grams of carbohydrates. As for between meals and to promote energy for sports‚ it would be a good idea for Jason to choose nutrient dense snacks that do not contain more than 30 grams of carbohydrates. Some snack suggestions might be a small granola bar‚ nuts and fruit‚ or peanut butter crackers. Jason’s morning meal could be a breakfast burrito that includes

Task 1 • Describe the structure of an enzyme as a protein‚ in terms of tertiary/ quaternary structures. 1) Primary Structure This is in reference to the order of way that amino acids are connected to form a protein. These are built up from 20 amino acids‚ and follow these structures o A carbon (the alpha carbon) bonded to the four groups below: o A hydrogen atom (H) o A Carboxyl group (-COOH) o An Amino group (-NH2) o A "variable" group or "R" group 2) Secondary Structure This is in reference

UNIT 2 NOTES DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) DNA Functions • Stores genetic information and copies itself (replication) to pass on the information • Contains genes (instructions to make proteins) • Instructs cell’s activities DNA Structure • DNA is a polymer of nucleotides • Chromosomes (DNA strand + associated proteins ie. Histones wrap DNA around like a spool = condensed chromatin) ↓ genes (sections of a chromosome that codes for a protein) ↓ nucleotides (3 parts: phosphate‚ deoxyribose

PRODUCTION OF CITRIC ACID Introduction: Citric acid is a White solid‚C3H4OH(COOH)3‚soluble in water and slightly soluble in organic solvents‚ which melts at 153 oC. Aqueous solutions of citric acid are slightly more acidic than solutions of acetic acid. Traces of citric acid are found in numerous plants and animals‚ because it is a nearly universal intermediate product of metabolism. Large amount of the acid are found in the juice of citrus fruits‚ from which it is precipitated by the

Title: Purification of Green Fluorescent Protein Introduction: Transformation is used to introduce a gene coding for a foreign protein into bacteria. Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography (HIC) is used to purify the foreign protein. Protein gel electrophoresis is used to check and analyze the pure protein. Research scientists use Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) as a master or tag to learn about the biology of individual cells and multicultural organisms. This lab introduces a rapid method

Name Class Date RNA and Protein Synthesis Information and Heredity Q: How does information flow from DNA to RNA to direct the synthesis of proteins? WHAT I KNOW 13.1 What is RNA? 13.2 How do cells make proteins? 13.3 What happens when a cell’s DNA changes? 13.4 How do cells regulate gene expression? WHAT I LEARNED SAMPLE ANSWER: RNA is a nucleic acid that carries coded genetic information. SAMPLE ANSWER: SAMPLE ANSWER: The bases in DNA—A‚ T‚ G‚ and C—form a four-letter “alphabet” that

Characteristics and Properties of Amino Acids Introduction: Each amino acid has at least one amine and one acid functional group as the name implies. The different properties result from variations in the structures of different R groups. The R group is often referred to as the amino acid side chain. Amino acids have special common names‚ however‚ a three letter abbreviation for the name is used most of the time. A second abbreviation ‚ single letter‚ is used in long protein structures.Consult the table on

Understanding the Functions of Proteins and DNA Ingrid Waldron‚ Biology Department‚ University of Pennsylvania‚ 2012 These key concepts and activities are suggested as part of an introductory unit on biological molecules (or as an introduction to a unit on molecular biology). The overarching goal is to help students understand that proteins and DNA are not just abstract concepts in biology textbooks but rather crucial components of our bodies that affect familiar functions and characteristics
