DNA synthesis inhibitors Nucleic acid inhibitors are chemicals which inhibit the production of nucleic acids including both DNA and RNA. DNA and RNA inhibitors inhibit enzyme action in DNA replication in the same way as the topoisomerase inhibitors we discussed earlier. Topoisomerase inhibitors (1) (10) are chemicals which interfere with the enzymes that allow DNA strands to separate and to re-join‚ a process that is required for the division of bacteria and without which DNA cannot effectively

3/21/2012 Cell Growth & Division Essay Kate Nogler Mr.Lapointe When a living thing grows‚ it produces more cells through a process called cell division. Cell division is necessary for any growing eukaryotic cell structure. Cells divide through a system called the cell cycle. It is a complicated and crucial part of anatomy! Before a cell divides‚ it must grow. However‚ a cell can’t grow forever. Once a cell gets too big‚ it divides itself into two daughter cells. A cell divides because

_____ Chapter 8-1: Cell Growth and Division Does your body grow by adding more cells‚ or by individual cells growing larger? what is the connection between surface area of a cell and how quickly the cell can exchange water‚ oxygen‚ food and wastes? what is the connection between volume of a cell and how quickly the cell uses up oxygen and food and produces wastes? What happens to surface area and volume as a cell gets larger? Describe the two main reasons why cell size is limited Compare

between normal and tumor cell division. Normal cell division can be broken into four phases: G1‚ S‚ G2‚ and M. During the G1 phase‚ RNAs are produced‚ proteins are synthesized and through the P53 gene (also known as the “Guardian of the Genome”)‚ cells are checked for damage and those that are found are forced to go through apoptosis where the cells are forced to “commit suicide” to prevent replication. Through the S phase‚ the DNA is duplicated and in the G2 phase‚ proteins are synthesized once more

Laboratory Exercise #3 Measuring Protein in Solution Abstract The purpose of this lab was to learn about the Biuret assay reaction to determine if it can detect proteins and amino acids; also‚ to understand the process of “salting out” proteins and how to determine the amount of protein in a solution. In order to do so‚ egg white and ammonium sulfate were mixed on ice and then put into the centrifuge. After PBS was added‚ the amount of protein could then be determined. After that‚ 14 test tubes

Understanding the Functions of Proteins and DNA Ingrid Waldron‚ Biology Department‚ University of Pennsylvania‚ 2012 These key concepts and activities are suggested as part of an introductory unit on biological molecules (or as an introduction to a unit on molecular biology). The overarching goal is to help students understand that proteins and DNA are not just abstract concepts in biology textbooks but rather crucial components of our bodies that affect familiar functions and characteristics

available as a nutrient for cells. Cellulose‚ on the other hand‚ is used in plant cells for structural support. For example‚ wood is a strong building material that is rich in cellulose. Like starch‚ cellulose is a polymer of glucose‚ but cellulose is composed of beta glucose (as opposed to alpha glucose in starch). Beta glucose forms chains with extra hydrogen bonds on top of each other‚ making extra-tough microfibrils that cannot be digested by most organisms. Proteins accomplish many different

Cellulitis: Cellulitis is a common skin infection caused by bacteria. Causes Staphylococcus and streptococcus bacteria are the most common causes of cellulitis. The skin normally has many types of bacteria living on it. When there is a break in the skin‚ however‚ bacteria can enter the body and cause infection and inflammation. The skin tissues in the infected area become red‚ hot‚ irritated‚ and painful. Risk factors for cellulitis include: • Cracks or peeling skin between the

Exam 1 Study Guide These topics will be on the exam. ▪ What are the tenets of cell theory? • Cells are the basic structural and physiological units of all living organisms. • Cells are both distinct entities and building blocks of more complex organisms. OR • All living organisms are composed of one or more cells‚ Cells are the basic units of structure and function in an organism‚ and Cells come only from the reproduction of existing cells.
