What else can I help you with?
Enzyme inhibitors disrupt normal interactions between an enzyme and its what?
substrate
What is the normal substrate for invertase?
The normal substrate for invertase is sucrose. Invertase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of sucrose into its component sugars, glucose, and fructose.
What are the differences between pepsin and pepsinogen?
pepsinogen makes pepsin
What is the functiom of pepsinogen?
Pepsinogen is the precursor for Pepsin, an enzyme for the degradation of protein.
Gastrin secretes what?
pepsinogen (a precursor of pepsin) which helps humans digest, when activated by HCL.
What produces HCI and pepsinogen?
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is produced by parietal cells in the stomach, while pepsinogen is produced by chief cells in the stomach. Together, HCl and pepsinogen play important roles in the chemical digestion of food in the stomach.
Is pepsinogen an example of apoenzume?
Yes, pepsinogen is an example of an apoenzyme. Apoenzymes are inactive forms of enzymes that require a cofactor or a coenzyme for activation. In the case of pepsinogen, it is activated into the active enzyme pepsin in the presence of the acidic environment in the stomach.
What is the zymogenic form of pepsin?
pepsinogen
Is pepsinogen organic or inorganic?
Pepsinogen is an inactive form of the digestive enzyme pepsin. Almost all enzymes are proteins, and proteins are organic macromolecules.
Is pepsin a polypeptide?
Pepsinogen is the proenzyme of pepsin. Pepsinogen is inactive, it is metabolized into the enzyme pepsin which break down proteins into small molecules.
What is needed to convert pepsinogen to pepsin?
hydrochloric acid produced by parietal cells converts pepsin to pepsinogen
What produces HC1 and pepsinogen?
intestinal crypts
