of Very Low Carbohydrate Diets 1.0 Summary Low carbohydrate‚ high protein diets have been raising concerns within medicine for quite some time. There is quite some conflicting evidence regarding the benefits and detrimental effects that these diets may have on metabolic and whole body health. Bone and Calcium loss – Why does a low Carbohydrate diet affect bone? Carbohydrates‚ if highly eliminated from the diet‚ are most frequently replaced with protein. The increase in protein very much effects

DNA Name the four bases in DNA and describe the structure of DNA using the following terms: The four bases of DNA are adenine‚ thymine‚ guanine‚ and cytosine. nucleotide (sugar‚ phosphate‚ base) Sugar: pentose deoxyribose; phosphate: phosporic acid‚ nitrogen base (A‚ T‚ G‚ C) complementary base pairing A-T; G-C joined by hydrogen bonds. Purines (with double ring) always bond with a pyrimidine (single ring). double helix Double spiral; three dimensional hydrogen bonding Hydrogen bonding

Summary of Carbohydrates: Monosaccharides‚ Disaccharides‚ Polysaccharides Carbohydrates are molecules that are synthesized from carbon‚ oxygen‚ and hydrogen atoms. Some types of carbohydrates consist of a single unit consisting of a few atoms‚ while other carbohydrates consists of thousands of units linked together through chemical bonds. Glucose‚ maltose‚ and glycogen are three carbohydrates that are similar‚ but structurally different. Carbohydrates have the general molecular formula CH2O. Starch

DENATURATION OF PROTEINS Abstract The experiment aimed to use the concept of viscosity to study the effects of different denaturants on 1% albumin extract. An Ostwald viscometer was used to measure the flow time of 5 mL of the blank and native protein. These were then denatured by adding 1 mL of denaturant and had their flow time measured. The flow time from the blank to denatured protein is increasing. The specific viscosity and reduced viscosity

Denaturing of Proteins Research Paper Abstract: Introduction The experiments the objective is to determine‚ the possible measures of the denaturation process of several proteins by using a home based temperate The necessary applications of this experiment are to compile all the possible measures of the denaturation process in understandable units and explainable means. Other methods possible for research are by using a

Lipids & Fat Casey G. Turner‚ RN Western Governors University Lipids & ATP • Fatty acids are important to energy production. They generate ATP. • This is completed by: 1. Starting with a triglyceride molecule the fatty acid part separates from the glycerol part of the molecule. 2. Once separated‚ the fatty acid chain will break into sections. Each section will be composed of 2 carbon molecules. 3. Each of the carbon pieces will form Acetyl CoA. Each Acetyl CoA enters the Krebs Cycle. 4. It is

Protein Synthesis Worksheet 1. 2. a. Protein synthesis began in the nucleus. b. Chromatin is a diffuse mass located in the nucleus where genetic material is found. c. A gene is a sequence of nucleotides‚ it is important because they form the template and these templates are used for synthesizing proteins. 3. a. Transcription is the first step of protein synthesis it uses a sequence of DNA nucleotides to produce a sequence of RNA nucleotide. b. RNA polymerase bonds to RNA nucleotides together

amino acids are present in a protein‚ in this case gluten. Introduction: Proteins are large biological molecules that are made up of amino acids. They serve as building blocks that form organic structures such as tendons‚ muscle‚ and cartilage. Enzymes - biological catalysts that allow important chemical reactions to occur in our body - are also made up of proteins. Thus‚ proteins play a fundamental role in the processes of life. [1] Protein purification is basically isolating a protein from
