What is enzyme synthesis?
the production of enzymes by activity including combining chemicals, which is the definition of synthesis.
A synthesis is the formation of bonds by removing water?
No, synthesis is the breaking of bonds that forms water, while dehydration synthesis is the breaking of bonds by removing water
What is tissue synthesis?
Tissue synthesis is toilet paper with a mind!
What is the site for protein-synthesis?
The site for protein synthesis is a cell structure. The specific structure in which synthesis occurs is the ribosomes, which is in the cytoplasm.
What must be present on tissue or an organ in order for it to respond to the presence of a hormone?
There are certain receptors for some specific hormones on the cell membranes of the target cells of the hormone. They are activated by the hormone and combine with it to form a complex that undergoes a series of receptor mediated reactiions to perform the particular function inside the cell. Some hormones pass through the cell membrane and interact with the receptors present on the membrane of cell organelles. Some hormones like thyroxine interact directly with the nucleus and trigger metabolic enzyme synthesis for increasing BMR
How does the human body process Lithium after it is ingested?
Lithium becomes widely distributed throughout the central nervous system. It then interacts with neurotransmitters and receptors, decreasing noradrenaline release and increasing serotonin synthesis.
A steroid hormone acts on a target cell by?
When receptors bind at the surface of a membrane, second messengers are released. This is how peptide hormones and catecholamines affect target organ cells.
How are G linked protein receptors made?
G-Linked protein receptors are proteins whose N-Terminus faces the cytosol. They are threaded to a translocon and begin with a Signal anchor sequence and alternate 7 times between a signal anchor sequence and a stop transfer anchor sequence before finally finishing synthesis in the cytosol.
What is the role of smooth er?
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is involved in lipid metabolism, steroid hormone production, and detoxification of drugs and toxins in the cell. It lacks ribosomes on its surface, giving it a smooth appearance compared to the rough ER.
What controls the cyclic nature of sleep?
Dopamine acts in the pineal gland, which is central to dictating the "circadian rhythm" in humans (the series of biological processes that enables brain activity to adapt to the time of the day). The pineal gland translates the light signals received by the retina through the synthesis of the hormone melatonin, which is produced and released at night and which helps to regulate the body's metabolic activity during sleep.Another hormone, norepinephrine, is involved in regulating this synthesis and release of melatonin in the pineal gland. It was long believed that these norepinephrine receptors all acted independently of other proteins, but in the new study, researchers have discovered that this is not the case. In fact, the receptors collaborate with other dopamine receptors forming 'heteromers'.
How aspirin causes increased prothrombin time?
It decreases synthesis of thromboxane A2 and prostaglandins to increase bleeding time. It does not affect PT or PTT. Prothrombin time unaffected!
The reaction in which two or more substances react to form a single substance?
A synthesis reaction or dehydration synthesis, also called a condensation reaction.
What is the function of ardenocorticotroptic hormone?
ardenocorticotroptic (ACTH) acts through the stimulation of cell surface ACTH receptors, which are located primarily on adrenocortical cells of the adrenal cortex. This results in the synthesis and secretion of gluco- and mineralo-corticosteroids and androgenic steroids.hope i helped !!
Is oxidation synthesis or decomposition?
