List the substrate and the subunit product of amylase. _starch & maltose respectively__ 2. What effect did boiling and freezing have on enzyme activity? Why? How well did the results compare with your prediction?__Boiling caused amylase to be denatured‚ thus inactivating the enzyme. Freezing has no effect. The function of an enzyme is directly related

S270). They discovered the compound ICI46‚474‚ which later became tamoxifen (Walpole‚ 1967). Walpole’s team succeeded in identifying the trans isomer of a substituted triphenylethylene (ICI46‚474)‚ which was a partial estrogen agonist/antagonist in rats but a full estrogen agonist in mice. Most importantly‚ this trans isomer of substituted ICI46‚474 exhibited unaffected levels of desmosterol‚ which satisfied the concerns of the pharmaceutical community. Tamoxifen was subsequently developed (Jordan

Correlation Between Vitamin D Deficiency and Parkinson’s Disease Trisakti University of Medicine I Made Setiadji 030.09.114 Jakarta‚ June 14th 2012 Abstract A majority of Parkinson’s disease patients had insufficient levels of vitamin D. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common form of neurodegeneration in the elderly population. In PD‚ one’s levels of dopamine are lowered because the nerve cells which make the chemical have either died or lost their usual functioning. Clinically
