Ricin is a toxic protein found in castor oil plant seeds. The toxicity of Ricin has been known for centuries and was even used by the KGB government to assassinate Georgi Markov‚ a famous journalist who openly criticized the Soviet Union’s communist regime. The toxicity of ricin is caused by its ability to deactivate ribosomes and halt protein synthesis. Therefore‚ Ricin is categorized as a ribosome inactivating protein (RIP). There are two types of RIPs: type I and type II. Type I RIPs are usually

The Spectrophotometer Determination Of Protein Concentrations And The Effects Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate And Triton X-100 Have On Protein Concentration. INTRODUCTION Spectroscopy is used as a collective term for all the analytical techniques based on the interaction of light and matter. Spectrophotometry is one of the branches of spectroscopy where we measure the absorption of light by molecules that are in a gas or vapour state or dissolved molecules/ions (Tombs‚ et.al‚ 1959). Spectroscopy is the

unable to cleave the signal sequence amino acid. B. Band B is the cleavage of the signal sequence by the signal peptidase. The cleavage of the polypeptide weighs less then when the protein was attached to the signal sequence and before it grows in the ER lumen. This is evident from the diagram‚ since lighter proteins move father down the gel than do heavier ones. Given the length

April 22‚ 2015 Does protein help to build muscle? The latest craze is about protein and how it affects building muscles and building muscle strength. Today‚ there are many athletes that use it as a supplement. There are many protein supplements available that are claiming to help people who work out to build muscle faster. Protein is a structure within our bodies that consists of amino acids. The cells in our bodies need this to function properly. If we did not have protein‚ our body’s functions

We successfully adapted a commercially available protein detection assay for the quantiWcation of PEI. All experiments described below were performed with linear 25-kDa PEI (Polysciences‚ Warrington‚ PA‚ USA) that we routinely use for the transfection of mammalian cells [4]‚ but it was possible to quantitate other PEIs (diVerent molecular weights; branched) with this method (data not shown).

monomers called proteins are important to our body. Protein is important because it composes parts of our body and assists in bodily functions. A type of protein named keratin makes up our hair and nails. Protein is used in your body to repair and build tissue‚ and it is a necessity in making hormones‚ enzymes‚ and other chemicals in the body. Many people use protein substances and supplements in correlation with weight lifting and working out to strengthen muscles with the protein characteristics
