Sarah Khan Bivins-5th April 20th‚ 2013 Protein Synthesis Every day‚ you take in an abundance of different biomolecules; one of them being proteins. Have you ever wondered how proteins are made? They don’t just grow from a tree or fall from the sky‚ they are made through a process called protein synthesis. Protein synthesis is broken up in two two steps: transcription and translation. Transcription starts inside the nucleus when the DNA is unzipped by helicase. Following that‚ the mRNA nucleotides

composition and reaction of the compounds.[4] We could benefit from these changes‚ nitration of acetanilide produces a product called p- Nirtoanoline. P-Nitroaniline is commonly used as an intermediate in the synthesis of dyes‚ antioxidants‚ pharmaceuticals and gasoline. P-Nitroaniline is also used in gum inhibitors‚ poultry medicines and as a corrosion inhibitor. [2] Nitration is a type of chemical reaction which a nitro group is added to or substituted in a molecule. It can be carried out by a

DNA and the Gene: Synthesis and Repair 1) Watson and Crick elucidated the structure of DNA in 1953. Their research built on and helped explain the findings of other scientists‚ including ________. A) X-ray diffraction studies by Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins. B) Chargaff’s rules: C = G and T = A. C) Scientists who recognized that a nucleotide consisted of a sugar‚ a phosphate‚ and a nitrogen-containing base. D) All of the above were important considerations in the elucidation of

Name Period Date The Synthesis of Aspirin Background Pharmaceutical research labs perform chemical reactions between organic molecules that contain mostly carbon. Since the atoms in organic molecules tend to be nonmetals‚ then the bonds that hold them together are covalent bonds. Only a few elements on the periodic table are nonmetals: C‚ N‚ O‚ S‚ Cl‚ and F. This small number of elements can be bonded together in different quantities‚ bonding types (single‚ double‚ triple bonds)‚ and structural

Lab 3: Grignard Synthesis Objective: The goal of this lab is to synthesize a Grignard reagent from bromobenzene and magnesium metal in diethyl ether. This same Grignard reagent would then be used to prepare a tertiary alcohol and then purify and characterize the product. Table of Reagents: Name Chemical formula Melting Point Boiling Point Density Safety Hazards Diethyl ether C4H10O -116.3°C 34.6°C 0.7134 g/ml Flammable Bromobenzene C6H5Br -30.6°C 156°C 1.5 g/ml

acidification of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. The objective was to convert a specific amount of salicylic acid into the same amount of aspirin that was high in purity. Furthermore‚ the other objectives were to enable students to conduct the synthesis of aspirin‚ reinforce skills or recrystallisation and the technique of melting point determination. The amount of each compound should be the same because there is a 1:1 ratio between them. The purity of the synthesized aspirin was measured by determining
