When glucose enters a cell through diffusion via plasma membrane it is phosphorylated. Then it is rearranged to a fructose derivative post which... View Article
Pyruvate kinase getting activated by fructose‐1,6‐bisphosphate is a good example of feed-forward activation. Such a glycolytic intermediate is... View Article
Flight muscles comprise a few mitochondria. Glucose is majorly disintegrated by glycolysis as only two molecules of ATP are produced for every... View Article
Reduced NADP produces two electrons that move back and forth through the mitochondrial membrane thrice. In this process, the charge differential... View Article
ATP is formed when reenters the mitochondrion - H+ moves through channels terminating as a knob in membranes with flow providing rendering... View Article
These are a way to find if natural selection is functional in a population. It has turned out to be quite popular as the technique involved in... View Article
It takes place when the ideal phenotype transitions from that of the actual population to a phenotype that is more adapted to the environment.... View Article
They accumulate with time. If changes in the DNA sequence accumulate at a steady pace, the rate of change could be measured with the use of dated... View Article
Natural selection is different from descent with modification. The first is the process: the second is the outcome. For instance, the well known... View Article
Gel electrophoresis works as various amino acids carry varying electric charges. Various proteins and a range of variants of the same protein... View Article
For the DNAp to synthesize new complementary strands access to ssDNA is necessary. Hence, before the DNAp copies DNA, the double helix requires... View Article
DNA replication necessitates that two DNA strands separate first into two individual strands. Then these single strands could be used to... View Article
Between the reading of the stored information and the actual protein there are several steps. There could be a protein to protein variation when... View Article
DNA shields the blueprint of life, genes comprise a code which could be read and translated into essential actions. Proteins in a cell conduct... View Article
It is a form of hyponatraemia, where the degree of antidiuretic hormone is not appropriate to the volume or osmotic stimuli, almost a reverse of... View Article
Antidiuretic hormone or vasopressin is a potent endogenous hormone that is accountable to regulate plasma osmolality and volume. In the brain, it... View Article
The problem with the use of live vaccines (generally more effective compared to killed vaccines) is the low, but vital danger that such viruses... View Article
The enveloped viruses have two routes to enter cells once it binds to its receptors - fusion or receptor-mediated endocytosis. Most of the... View Article
A good example of a lysogenic bacteriophage is the λ (lambda) virus. It also infects the E.coli bacterium. Those viruses infecting animal... View Article
In case the host cells are unable to render enzymes essential for the process of viral replication, the viral genes tend to inform the direct... View Article
