Enzymology‚ Catalytic Mechanism‚ Carbohydrate Metabolism‚ Adenosine Triphosphate Enzymes are proteins and their function is to act as catalysts to speed up certain chemical reactions in the cell that would be slower without them. This process occurs as steps in a cycle with separate reactions in each step. If there is a missing product the step in the cycle will be incomplete and the normal function of the organism cannot be accomplished causing negative effects on the organism. The biological

How the structure of proteins are related to their functions Rachel Morris The basic building blocks of proteins are amino acids‚ the biuret reaction tests for protein. A solution of sodium hydroxide is added to a sample then a few drops of copper sulphate solution‚ if positive – the solution will turn mauve. There are 20 different amino acids and they can be joined in any order. Therefore there can be many different functions. A protein consists of one or more polypeptide chains (a polypeptide

The role of protein in hormone enzyme functions Proteins are very important particles in our cells. Proteins are included in basically all bodily cell functions‚ including cellular regeneration and repair‚ tissue maintenance and regulation‚ hormone and enzyme production (James‚ C.S. Delores). They vary in structure as well as function. Talking about hormone and enzyme production‚ it is important to understand that amino acids are the basic components of hormones‚ which are critical chemical

Traditionally all accounting information was recorded by hand in a written form. Employees performed the whole accounting cycle manually; they calculated trial balances‚ journalized transactions‚ prepared financial statements and other routines. Traditional manual accounting was a very tedious process‚ and required accountants to spend large amounts of time mathematically checking numbers. While many small companies still use the traditional ways of accounting‚ many large companies are switching

“Use of Biuret Reagent to Test for Proteins In Food” Cindy Zhou Introduction Protein is a series of amino acids that are connected together by peptide bond. The bond is located between the end of previous amino acid‚ which is the carboxyl group‚ and the head of next amino acid‚ which is a amino group. The Biuret reagent is a solution of copper sulfate and potassium hydroxide. When peptide bond are presented‚ the copper (II) will interact with them (MadSci Network: General Biology). It is
