What else can I help you with?
Enzymes that are produced only when substrate is present are termed?
induced enzyme
How is the synthesis of a constitutive enzyme stopped?
The synthesis of a constitutive enzyme is typically regulated at the transcriptional level. When the cell has sufficient levels of the enzyme, transcription is inhibited by regulatory proteins or feedback mechanisms. This helps maintain a balance between enzyme production and cellular needs.
What does Phosphoglycerate kinase do?
Phosphorylase is an enzyme which joins with Glucose-1-phosphate together to make larger starch molecules. it is an example of synthesis (a joing together enzyme)
What enzyme is needed in order for transcription to take place?
RNA polymerase is the enzyme needed for transcription to take place. It catalyzes the synthesis of an RNA molecule from a DNA template.
What are 5 minerals found in plants?
Iron: important for the formation of chlorophyll and enzyme functions. Calcium: helps with cell wall structure and signaling pathways. Magnesium: critical for photosynthesis and enzyme activation. Phosphorus: essential for energy transfer and DNA/RNA synthesis. Potassium: involved in osmoregulation, enzyme activation, and protein synthesis.
Synthesis of an inducible enzyme requires?
Substrate bound to a repressor Chris G.
What are inducible and non inducible enzymes?
Inducible: usually off for protein synthesis but can be turned on Non inducible, or REPRESSIBLE : usually on for protein synthesis but can be turned off Inducible: usually off for protein synthesis but can be turned on Non inducible, or REPRESSIBLE : usually on for protein synthesis but can be turned off
Enzymes that are produced only when substrate is present are termed?
induced enzyme
What is the co enzyme required for fatty acid synthesis?
acetyl CoA or Acetyl Co-enzyme A is required for fatty acid synthesis
What is enzyme synthesis?
Enzyme synthesis is the process by which cells make enzymes through transcription and translation of the enzyme's gene into a functional protein. This involves the production of mRNA from DNA in the nucleus, and the subsequent translation of this mRNA into the enzyme in the cytoplasm. Enzymes are essential for catalyzing biochemical reactions in cells.
What enzyme is responsible for RNA synthesis?
RNA polymerase
How is the synthesis of a constitutive enzyme stopped?
The synthesis of a constitutive enzyme is typically regulated at the transcriptional level. When the cell has sufficient levels of the enzyme, transcription is inhibited by regulatory proteins or feedback mechanisms. This helps maintain a balance between enzyme production and cellular needs.
Explain the advantage in having an inducible enzyme system that is regulated by the presence of a substrate?
An inducible enzyme system allows the cell to produce enzymes only when needed in response to the presence of a specific substrate. This system is energy-efficient as it prevents the unnecessary production of enzymes when the substrate is not present. It enables the cell to quickly adapt to changes in its environment and efficiently utilize available resources.
Synthesis of a repressible enzyme is inhibited by?
The corepressor-repressor binding to the operator stops the repressible enzyme synthesis. The rate of production of repressible enzyme can be stopped or inhibited if a substance is in high concentration.
Enzyme synthesis in a living cell occurs at which cytoplasmic organelle?
Ribosomes
What is the enzyme that controls the synthesis of new strands of DNA called?
DNA polymerase
Does an enzyme's function require inhibitors?
yes
