Is the synthesis of a protein from amino acids as anabolic or a catabolic?

Anabolic reactions are reactions which build molecules up, catabolic reactions break them down. Since protein synthesis is a 'building' reaction it is anabolic.


Is Helicase catabolic?

Helicase is not considered catabolic; rather, it is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the replication and repair of DNA by unwinding the double helix. This process is essential for both anabolic and catabolic pathways, but helicase itself does not break down molecules for energy, which is the hallmark of catabolic processes. Instead, it facilitates the access of other enzymes to the DNA strands for further processing.


In an experiment of Pepsin and BAPNA is pepsin the substrate?

No, pepsin is not the substrate in the experiment with BAPNA. BAPNA is the synthetic substrate used in this experiment to test the activity of the enzyme pepsin by measuring the rate of substrate cleavage. Pepsin acts on BAPNA as the enzyme, not the substrate.


Which two hormones have both anabolic and catabolic effects?

Insulin and cortisol are two hormones that have both anabolic and catabolic effects. Insulin promotes anabolic processes such as glucose uptake and protein synthesis, while cortisol can have catabolic effects by promoting the breakdown of muscle protein and fat for energy production.


What is a sequence of chemical reactions within a cell?

The reactions that occur in cells are both anabolic (building up) and catabolic (breaking down). The catabolic reactions provide the energy for the anabolic reactions. The sum total of all catabolic and anabolic reactions in the cell is called metabolism.
