Polypeptides‚ better known as proteins‚ carry out nearly all of a cell’s functions. A protein is made up of at least one or more amino acid polymers. The necessity of proteins for life is unequivocal‚ not only do they help to form the structures of cells but they act as enzymes in reactions of the body1. Enzymes are biological catalysts that lower the amount of activation energy needed in carrying out biochemical reactions1. Enzymes are responsible for almost every reaction that occurs in a cell

Effects of Temperature and pH on Enzyme Function Chelsie Mesa Section 0479 Robin Cotter Introduction The purpose of this experiment is to identify three unknown enzymes. This is done by using different temperature and pH to affect the function of the enzyme‚ which ultimately‚ will affect how much maltose is produced. Enzymes are proteins that help catalyze chemical reactions. In enzymatic reactions‚ the molecules at the beginning of the process are called substrates‚ and the enzyme

Identification of Proteus vulgaris from an Unknown Sample Lakhram Bhisham March 31‚ 2016 01:447:390 General Microbiology TA: Jennifer Goff ABSTRACT This report delineates how unknown #405 was identified as Proteus vulgaris out of a possible seven species of Enterobacteriaceae by applying various tests that are able to distinguish between members of the family. Inevitably‚ the results for many tests are identical across multiple species‚ which is expected due to the organisms’ evolutionary relatedness

Presence of Alu element within PV92 on chromosome 18 in a mixed ethnical population and its connection with humans’ ancestral origins By Shiyu Song Biology 155Q LAB-A: 14:30-17:30 Dr. Jacob April 17th 2013 Abstract The Alu insertion (+) within PV92 on chromosome 16 usually reflects a person’s ancestral origin. This study aimed to find the correlation between the presences of Alu insertion (+) within PV92 on chromosome 16 within a population. We used PCR to detect the Alu insertions

David Kennedy Bio 210 Lab Report 1 10/11/13 Microbial Growth Background Information: This lab was conducted in order to understand basic differences among differential and selective media‚ while recognizing how each media is used to isolate and identify microorganisms (Wistreich‚ 2003). The first microorganism analyzed was Staphylococcus epidermidis. This organism is gram-positive‚ single celled‚ arranged in grape-like clusters‚ and cocci in shape (Bukhari‚ 2004). S. epidermidis is approximately

Standards of caffeine were also prepared that contained 4‚8‚12‚16 and 20 mg/L in 0.10M HCl. All other standards were prepared by other lab groups. These standards were used to obtained a series of calibration curves. We then prepared the monster energy drink‚ by warming 20 mL of the monster energy drink on a hot plate in order to expel CO2 and filtered the warm liquid through filter paper
