What else can I help you with?
How many copies of one enzyme are in a cell?
Enzymes can have varying concentrations inside a cell. If the need for an enzyme is small then few enzymes will be in the cell however if there a signal to the cell that would cause a drastic need for more enzymes then the production and thus the concentration would increase.
Is the mitochondria an enzyme?
The mitochondria is not an enzyme. It is a powerhouse for the cell.
What type of protein regulates nearly all chemical reactions in the cell?
That protein would be an enzyme.
Which of the following occurs as an enzyme produced by a cell is secreted from the cell?
The enzyme is synthesized in the cell's ribosomes, packaged into vesicles by the Golgi apparatus, and then released from the cell through exocytosis.
What would happen if an enzyme entered a cell and destroyed the nucleus Thanks?
If an enzyme entered a cell and destroyed the nucleus, it would severely disrupt the cell's function. The nucleus contains the cell's genetic material (DNA) and is responsible for regulating gene expression and cellular activities. Without the nucleus, the cell would lose its ability to replicate, produce proteins, and carry out essential processes, ultimately leading to cell death. Additionally, the loss of genetic material would hinder the cell's ability to respond to environmental changes and maintain homeostasis.
What is an adaptive enzyme?
An adaptive enzyme is an enzyme which is present in a cell only under conditions where it is clear of adaptive value.
Differentiate extra and intracellular enzymes?
An extracellular enzyme is one which reacts outside of the cell. An intracellular enzyme is one which reacts inside of the cell.
What cell would the enzyme GALT be found?
Since it is linked to the pathway of glycolysis which takes place in the cytosol, the enzyme GALT would be present in the cytosol. This is where glycolysis occurs.
What is the Difference between intracellular enzyme and extracellular enzyme?
Intracellular enzymes are enzymes that function inside the cell, where they participate in various metabolic reactions. Extracellular enzymes, on the other hand, are enzymes that are secreted outside the cell to catalyze reactions in the extracellular environment, such as breaking down larger molecules into smaller ones for nutrient absorption.
Why is protein concentration necessary for accurate comparison of the enzyme activity of the fractions?
Enzyme activity sometimes reflects the amount of protein expressed in a cell--however, due to enzyme inhibitors, the enzyme activity is not always reflective of the amount of protein expressed by a cell.
Is an enzyme an example of a eukaryotic cell?
No. An enzyme is a molecule, specifically a protein, that catalyzes a chemical reaction.
Which enzyme help animals to digest plants?
Cellulase is the enzyme responsible for breaking down cellulose, a major component of plant cell walls, in animals such as herbivores. This enzyme helps animals extract nutrients from plant material that would otherwise be indigestible.
