Why IGM is so much efficient in activating complement than IgG?
IgM is more efficient in activating complement than IgG because of its larger size and pentameric structure, which allows for more binding sites and better clustering of complement proteins. This leads to a more robust activation of the complement cascade and increased inflammation and opsonization.
The binding of an antigen to an antibody can result in?
neutralization of the antigen, agglutination or precipitation, and complement activation.
How can one identify transcription factor binding sites in promoters?
One can identify transcription factor binding sites in promoters by using bioinformatics tools to analyze the DNA sequence of the promoter region. These tools can predict potential binding sites based on known binding motifs of transcription factors. Experimental methods such as chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) can also be used to confirm the binding of transcription factors to specific sites in the promoter.
How many binding sites are found on the ribosomes?
The ribosome has three sites for binding. It binds RNA and DNA so that they can be matched to their complementary base pair.
What is the subunit of a ribosome has binding sites for trna?
The small ribosomal subunit contains binding sites for tRNA. These sites are known as the A (aminoacyl), P (peptidyl), and E (exit) sites, where tRNA molecules bind to the mRNA to facilitate protein synthesis.
What muscle proteins help turn muscle contration on and off?
Calcium is responsible for binding to troponin sites which release tropomyosin off the active binding sites on the thin filament.
Does guanine have two binding sites?
Yes, guanine has two binding sites on its structure - one for hydrogen bonding with cytosine, forming a base pair in DNA, and another for ribose sugar when incorporated into RNA structures. These binding sites allow guanine to participate in the formation of stable nucleic acid structures.
Large molecules may have reaction sites termed?
Molecules and cells have reaction and activity areas known under three terms. These are active, receptor, and binding sites. Such sites have markers and binding proteins allowing for their activation and or transfer of genetic materials.
What is the binding of antibodies to specific sites on bacterial exotoxins or viruses?
It is Neutralization
One binding site on a ribosome holds an mRNA molecule and the other two binding?
sites hold tRNA molecules. The mRNA binding site is where the mRNA molecule binds and is read during translation. The tRNA binding sites are where tRNAs carrying amino acids bind and deliver them to the growing polypeptide chain.
The binding of calcium to which molecule causes the myosin binding sites to be exposed?
Troponin binds to the Calcium ions to expose the actin to the myosin heads.
What is the function of the complement cascade called opsonization?
Opsonization is a process in which pathogens are marked for destruction by phagocytic cells. It involves the binding of complement proteins to the surface of the pathogen, making it easier for phagocytes to recognize and engulf the pathogen.
