THE ORGANELLES OF EUKARYOTIC CELLS . The difference between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells is organelles‚ membrane enclosed structures that perform specific duties. The most important of all is the “nucleus‚” this holds the DNA and is surrounded by a double membrane. The Prokaryotic lacks a nucleus which is not partitioned from the other cells by membranes. The region between the nucleus and plasma membrane is called cytoplasm and in the Eukaryotic cell it consists of various

1.A) Two main forms of cells exist: eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells are smaller and do not have membrane-bound nucleus or membrane- bound organelles‚ but do have: plasma membrane‚ cytosol and cytoplasm‚ and ribosomes. Prokaryotes contain much less DNA than eukaryotes and have circular chromosomes. Eukaryotic cells have information processing organelles‚ such as the nucleus which houses most of the cell’s DNA‚ and ribosomes which use information from DNA to produce proteins

Bai‚ W.-G. Zhu]; Department of Biotechnology‚ Guilin Medical College‚ Guilin‚ China [L. Bai] Since the p53 tumor suppressor gene has been found to be mutated in more than 50% of human cancers‚ it has attracted the interest of numerous researchers. The capacity of p53 for multiple biological functions can be

The nucleolus (plural nucleoli) is a non-membrane bound structure. Composed of proteins and nucleic acids found within the nucleus. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is transcribed and assembled within the nucleolus. Three major components of the nucleolus are recognized: the fibrillar centers (FC)‚ the dense fibrillar components (DFC)‚ and granular components (GC). The DFC consists of newly transcribed rRNA bound to ribosomal proteins‚ while the GC‚ contains rRNA bound to ribosomal proteins that are beginning

microscope is that it has a greater magnification‚ so you can see more detail about the organism. It would be preferable to use a light microscope when you want to see the cell in the act of moving or dividing. 2. Prokaryotic cells don’t have organelles like eukaryotic cells do. Eukaryotic cells contain its DNA within its nucleus‚ while prokaryotic cells keep it within the nucleoid. Prokaryotic cells are also more minute than the eukaryotic cells. Also although they both contain ribosomes‚ they are

where they perform a wide variety of useful functions. This essay will expand on these functions to describe the role of lipids. There are several types of lipid including triglycerides‚ steroids‚ waxes and phospholipids. Triglycerides are made up of three fatty acids combined with glycerol by an ester linkage meaning they are predominantly hydrophobic. They are combined in a condensation reaction where water is released. Phospholipids and similar except one of the fatty acid tails is replaced by a

Chapter 2 Integrin Structure and Function Manakan Betsy Srichai and Roy Zent Abstract Integrins are a large family of heterodimeric glycoprotein receptors first discovered over twenty years ago. They exist as two noncovalently bound a- and b- subunits that function as adhesion molecules and play key roles in many biological processes including actin cytoskeleton organization and transduction of intracellular signals regulating cellular functions. Integrins bind a variety of extracellular matrices
