What is an enzyme? Enzymes are organic molecules, pretentious in nature that are specialized to catalyze biological reactions. Here these can be termed as “Biological Catalysts” (or) “Biocatalysts” (or) “Middle …
ATP contains two phosphoanhydride bonds (connecting the 3 phosphates together) and one phosphodiester bond (connecting a phosphate to the ribose ring). The pKa’s for the reactions H+ ATP3- —> ATP4- …
Nucleic acids are polymers composed of monomer units known as nucleotides. There are a very few different types of nucleotides. The main functions of nucleotides are information storage (DNA), protein …
Proteins are very important in biological systems as control and structural elements. Control functions of proteins are carried out by enzymes and proteinaceous hormones. Enzymes are chemicals that act as …
