Pfizer Company: A Presentation of Strategic Context and Company Strategies Pfizer is the number two largest biomedical and pharmaceutical research and development company in the world‚ boasting in excess of fifty Billion dollars per year in gross revenues. While the recession has hit many companies‚ the biotechnology and pharmaceuticals sector has remained not only relatively insulated‚ but in addition to that the forecasting models for growth predict a profitable future. Pfizer has had its share

from several hundred to several hundred million molecular weight units - and are made up of monomer units. There are four major classes of biological macromolecules: proteins‚ carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ and nucleic acids (Sheeler & Bianchi‚ 1980). Proteins are made up of polymers of amino acids. The shape and structure of a cell is defined by proteins (Alberts et al.‚ 1989). Carbohydrates are made up of polymers of simple sugars called monosaccharides.

polymerase reaches a special base sequence called termination signal‚ transcription is then over. This is called termination. The row of “guitars” represents the sequence in the tRNA anticodons. The tan balls on the bottom of the “guitars” represent the amino acids in the polypeptide chain. The multi-color piano keys represent the different bases that are in DNA and RNA molecules. What is different in the second strand than the first upper strand is that the second strand is mRNA which contains the base

Aspartame: What Is It And What Effects Does it Have on Your Body? Aspartame‚ also known Acesulfame Potassium (Hull‚ 2006)‚ is commonly known by brand names NutraSweet‚ Equal‚ Sweet One and Spoonful. Aspartame is found in thousands of foods‚ drinks‚ candy‚ gum‚ vitamins‚ health supplements and even pharmaceuticals. This artificial sweetener is the most popular in the United States‚ is 200 times sweeter than sucrose the accepted standard for sweetness‚ and is also the most dangerous substance

sometimes irreversible—process that involves the disruption and possible destruction of both the secondary and tertiary structures. Since denaturation reactions are not strong enough to break the peptide bonds‚ the primary structure (sequence of amino acids) remains the same after a denaturation process. Denaturation disrupts the normal alpha-helix and beta sheets in a protein and uncoils it into a random shape. Generally‚ protein denaturation is to be avoided‚ since proteins are best studied as

structure in which a pair of invariant histidine residues act as axial ligands to the haem iron. The reduction potential of gCYTb5-I is 165 mV vs. SHE and is relatively low compared to most values (110 to +80 mV) for this class of protein. The amino- and carboxy-terminal sequences that flank the central haembinding core of the Giardia cytochromes are highly charged and differ from those of other family members. A core gCYTb5-I variant lacking these flanking sequences was also able to bind haem

During protein digestion‚ a water molecule is added which breaks down the carbonyl-carbon-nitrogen sin the peptide bonds of proteins causing the liberation of amino acids. This process is referred to as proteolysis. Water molecules break down the carbonyl-carbon-nitrogen single bond (peptide bond) that holds single amino acid molecules together (Caroline Ritchie‚ 2013. This process is called hydrolysis and is catalysed by protease. The three main protease enzymes produced during digestion are pepsin
