What is the role of PMSF in protein extraction?
PMSF is a protease inhibitor. During the protein extraction, the proteases present in the cell lysate may digest the disered proteins, to prevent this PMSF is added!
Is protease a white blood cell?
No. A protease is an enzyme (i.e. a chemical), used in the digestion of proteins. White blood cells are called leucocytes and there are several different kinds such as lymphocytes.
What is an example of a bacterial endotoxin test?
The Limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) test is a test used to determine if a bacterial cell produces an endotoxin. ILimulus amebocyte lysate is an aqueous extract of blood cells (amoebocytes) from the horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus. LAL reacts with bacterial endotoxin or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which is a membrane component of Gram negative bacteria.
What is bacterial lysate?
when my wife prepared me some nice breakfast
What is the formula for protease?
Protease is an enzyme. It is essentially a protein. Protease is not a compound and therefore its formula cannot be given out. Protease are a class of enzymes involved in digesting proteins. The basic mode of action can be described as: Protein + Protease -----> Digested protein + protease Since enzymes do not react in a biochemical reaction (they are merely catalysis), protease appears on both sides of the reaction shown above

What are protease enymes?
The protease enzyme helps in the breakdown of proteins present in a cell
Which components of HIV functions are release after of the virion from the infected cell?
protease
What blocks HIV binding to host cell receptors?
Protease inhibitors.
Which is a type of white blood cell protease macrophage placenta or lipase?
macrophage
What is the difference between lysis and lysate?
Lysate is all the material formed by the lysis of cells. Lysis is the disintegration or destruction of cells.

How is protease related to AIDS?
The third class of antiretroviral drugs developed against HIV were the protease inhibitors. These work far back in the life cycle of HIV, after host cell integration but before budding. These drugs affect the enzyme protease, which is used to cut up the HIV protein to be packaged into virions. When the cell produces HIV proteins, the raw material is in a long connected string. The enzyme protease acts as a "scissor" to cut up the string into the protein for each virion. Protease inhibitors prevent protease from doing this. They resemble pieces of the protein string that protease usually cuts. This disrupts the cutting process, which prevents the chain from being cut into small pieces, which prevents HIV from making copies of itself.
What is protease inhibition?
Protease Inhibitors are a class of medications used to treat patients with the HIV virus. They are designed to prevent an already infected cell from reproducing (therefore inhibiting the virus from copying itself).
The opposite of combine?
Disect, lyse or Lysate.
What is protease inhibition therapy?
Protease Inhibitors are a class of medications used to treat patients with the HIV virus. They are designed to prevent an already infected cell from reproducing (therefore inhibiting the virus from copying itself).
