What happens to an enzyme and structure as it exceeds the typical human body temperature?
The enzyme can denature and will not function because it is no longer in the proper shape.
Why does penicillin not affect human cells?
This is essentially because bacterial cells and human cells are very different. Both bacterial and human cells use chemicals called enzymes to build their walls. Penicillin is the right chemical "shape" to chemically stick to part of the bacterial enzyme. When it does this, it stops the bacterial enzyme from working properly and this makes the bacterial cell walls weak. The weakened cell wall cannot withstand the outside pressure, it breaks up and the bacterial cell dies. Human cells are made by different types of enzymes with a different chemical shape that penecillin is unable to stick to so it cant stop the human enzymes from working. The human cell walls are thus unaffected by it and they remain strong.
Whay is then enzyme in human saliva?
The enzyme in human saliva is Amylase.
What does the bacterial cell reproduce that the human gene codes for?
the bacterial cell reproduces the bacterial chromosome that the human gene codes for.
How does a human insulin genes become part of a plasmid?
1. Scientists remove plasmids, small rings of DNA, from bacterial cells. 2. An enzyme cuts open the plasmid DNA. The same enzyme removes the human insulin gene from its chromosome. 3. The human insulin gene attaches the open ends of the plasmid to form a closed ring. 4. Some bacterial cells take up the plasmids that have the insulin gene. 5. When cells reproduce, the news cells will contain copies of the engineered plasmid. The foreign gene directs the cell to produce human insulin.

Does the human body have more bacterial or human cells?
it has more human cells actually the human body has more bacterial cells. Although it may seem more likely that the human body would have more human cells than bacterial cells. -Vasillisa

What function do human intestinal bacterial symbionts serve?
Human intestinal bacterial symbionts serve in the production of Vitamin K.
59 33 The insertion of a human DNA fragment into a bacterial cell might make it possible for what?
1 for bacterial cell to produce a human protein
When human DNA is spliced into bacterial DNA what is the new DNA called?
The new human-bacterial DNA is known as recombinant DNA.
At what pH would the enzyme be most effective?
It depends on what type of Enzyme. Enzymes have different optimum pH depending on the environment they work in, for example and enzyme in the stomach of a human would have a pH of about 2 but an enzyme in human saliva has an optimum pH of 5.6.
What happens to enzymes at -0 degrees?
At 0°C enzyme action is low because the movement of molecules is low. This causes the collision frequency between enzyme and substrate to be low. Increasing the temperature speed up the movement of molecules and thus the collision frequency increases therefore enzyme action increases. Human bio enzymes work best at 37 degrees Celsius. As the temperature raises the shape of the enzyme changes and the enzyme becomes denatured. Temperature above 50 degrees Celsius will denature most human enzymes.
In what structure does Bacterial DNA resemble human DNA?
That they have both DNA Bacterial DNA is a (closed) circle, those of human is lineair (straight) if you stretch it. Bacterial DNA does not have Proteines, Human DNA has Proteines. Bacteria have also RNA The DNA of bacteria is easy to reach , those of human not.
