THE ROLE OF PROTEIN MISFOLDING AND AGGREGATION IN BSE When a protein misfolds it changes its behavior and function. If it becomes hydrophobic after once being polar. The properties and functionality of the protein are no longer useful to the organism and disaster results. PrPSc is hydrophobic‚ it avoids water inside of the cell…it attracts and attaches other proteins to misfolds and become hydrophobic …Misfolding spreads because the PrPSc act as chaperone proteins to convert PrPc TO PrPSc and

of diet an organism is on. For example‚ a diet high in fat would result in a low R.Q due to the greater amount of O2 molecules required to metabolize that fat for ATP. On the contrary‚ a high protein diet would result in a larger R.Q due to a fewer amount of O2 molecules required to metabolize that protein for ATP. In a study performed by Renault et al. (2003) it was found that starvation resulted in a significant decrease in metabolic rate in the pest beetle Alphitobius diaperinus whereas the

Specificity of Protein-Ligand Binding 1). One can conclude that Orange G. has the lowest affinity for the albumin. In the experiment the concentration of Orange G that binds to protein was a lot less than either Ponceau S. or Bromophenol blue. The ligand with the highest affinity to BSA was a little more difficult to decipher. The experiment shows that all of the 2 µL of both Ponceau S. and Bromophenol blue bind to the BSA. However‚ when 5 µL of the ligand is added the BSA is saturated and cannot

Lab 4: Photosynthesis and Chromatography of Spinach Leaves Discussion: The chromatography of the spinach leaves was taken to establish what pigments were present in the chloroplasts of the leaves. The solvent carried and separated the different pigments up the cellulose paper. The solvent moved up the paper because of capillary action because of adhesion of the solvent molecules and the paper. The pigments dissolved in the solvent also were carried up the paper and were separated because

Glycogen is a polymer/polysaccharide that serves as a form of energy storage in animals and fungi and is a primary carbohydrate storage form in animals. Glycogen in humans is made and stored primarily in the cells of the liver and the muscles which functions as the secondary long-term energy. Glycogen is often referred to as animal starch because it is the complement of starch in plants for they have a similar structure to amylopectin but more extensively branched and compact than starch. Glycogen

Protein Article Research SCI/241 September 27‚ 2012 Roberta Harbison Protein Article Research Protein is an essential part of a healthy diet. It is made of different combinations of 20 different amino acids. Protein is found in every cell‚ tissue‚ and organ of the body. It is important to consume an adequate amount of protein because our bodies are constantly using the protein we digest to make more amino acids. Some amino acids cannot be produced by the body and it is essential that

October 2‚ 2012 Biochemistry I Circular Dichroism and Secondary Structure of Proteins Proteins are vital to an organism life; they are involved in nearly all cellular functions. It is an essential part of enzymes‚ the cellular membrane‚ active transport‚ protein synthesis and wound healing. Because one relies so heavily upon proteins and its function the structure of proteins is also very important. “The way a protein will fold over its self-determines how it interacts with other chemicals in its
