What else can I help you with?
Where is pepsin produced What is the effect of pepsin on protein?
Pepsin is produced in the stomach. Pepsin is an enzyme that digests (hydrolyses) proteins into smaller polypeptide molecules.
What effect would decreased incubation temperatures have on pepsin?
Pepsin activity would decrease and at a very low temperature pepsin would be inactive.
What effect would decrease incubation temperature have on pepsin activity?
Pepsin activity would decrease and at a very low temperature pepsin would be inactive.
What would happen to the pepsin if you take an antacid auch as alka seltzer?
Antacids have powerful adsorbent and precipitating effect on pepsin, which can lead to its reduction
What is Albumen?
Albumen is a protein.
Explain the effect of pH on pepsin in terms of the active site of the enzyme?
nothing
Is effect of pepsin on proteins a chemical reaction?
Yes, it is. Proteins in the presence of pepsin are converted into peptide chains (polypeptides). The reaction is : Proetins→ (In the presence of pepsin-to be written over the arrow) Polypeptides.
What color is albumen?
Albumen is egg white - it is colorless.
Is the thin albumen the same as thick albumen?
No. It differs in viscosity.
When did Operation Albumen happen?
Operation Albumen happened in 1942.
How many albumen are there?
Three form of albumen surround the yolk. The first part of the albumen is added in the Magnum where the inner and out shell membranes are deposited. A small amount of thin albumen and mineral salts are deposited around the yolk. The majority of albumen is formed in the Isthmus. It is here that Albumen or egg white is secreted and layered around the yolk and the protein strands called Chalazae are attached to the yolk and albumen. Finally, as the eggs reaches the shell gland or uterus, more water is added to the outer edge of the albumen making the outer edge more liquid than the mid and inner albumen.
What does the word albumen mean?
Albumen is the egg white, or protein contained in it.
