    diffusion through membrane transporters (carrier protein) by means of active transport OR The type of transporter which an animo acids is transported through the epithelial membrane through depends on the R-group attacked to the particular amino acid (structure and combosition) These transporters bind amino acids only once they have bound sodium ions – this is known as coupled transport This coupled transport is through a symport transporter protein which works by transporting the amino acid across

    provide compaction of the DNA. Two important DNA bending proteins in crenarchaea are Cren7 and Sul7 (Driessen et al.‚ 2013). They are similar in structure‚ but they have different DNA binding regions (Zhang et al.‚ 2015). Cren7 and Sul7 can be methylated at several lysine residues (Guo‚ 2007). This PTM might be to regulate gene expression (Feng et al.‚ 2010)‚ although the methylation does not alter the DNA-binding affinity of these proteins. It is not clear whether and how these modifications alter

    cells are a brief explanation of the proteins in the body that regulate cell growth is also helpful in understanding cancer cells. Because our DNA carries GENSE that in turn are the blueprint for proteins produced in the body. Some of these proteins are growth factors‚ chemicals that tell cells to divide and grow. Cancer is a complex disease‚ and it is usually a combination of these abnormalities that lead to a cancerous cell‚ rather than a single mutation or protein abnormality. Next‚ Normal cells stop

    thrive in their respective environments‚ because of the function of DNA. Inside every living cell‚ DNA directs vital activities‚ such as growth‚ division‚ movement‚ respiration‚ and even death‚ by providing the instructions that cells use to build proteins. DNA gives rise to the physical and behavioral adaptations that make organisms unique. And yet‚ the chemical language in which DNA’s instructions are written is extremely simple. It consists of just four letters‚ which correspond to the four functional

    Background Organic compounds are‚ by definition‚ any chemical compound containing carbon. These compounds include carbohydrates‚ polysaccharides‚ lipids‚ proteins‚ and nucleic acids. Each one of these compounds has a different purpose. Carbohydrates give energy to cells when consumed. Lipids are basically the fats of a cell. Proteins are the building blocks of muscle in a cell. Nucleic acids are used to transfer genetic information from one cell to the other. The purpose of this lab is to
