    purification process. The Ni2+-NTA-Agarose resin was effective for this experiment‚ but testing other resins can determine if the Ni2+-NTA-Agarose resin was the best resin to use in this purification process. It also needs to be determined if running the protein through the column would have any effect on the dialysis process. This information can be determined by running dialysis with the crude sample and comparing the fold purity to the post-dialysis elution pool. Another future experiment‚ would be to

    into messenger RNA through transcription and translation. DNA is split through transcription and then it is translated to match into RNA. 2 How is the RNA molecule a “script” for the protein production process? RNA is a script for the protein production process because they set the RNA up to translate into a protein. 3 What is the function of hemoglobin in the body? Hemoglobin functions in the body by giving oxygen to the blood. Conclusion 3.2.2 4 Describe (in words) the effect of the mutation.

    This arrangement prevents the transport of water in and out of the cell. The phospholipid bilayer also contains proteins (intrinsic) which acts as a carrier to transport water-soluble substances across the membrane. Some proteins such as carrier proteins are also embedded in the bilayer. When a molecule that is specific to the protein‚ it binds to the protein‚ which causes the carrier protein to change shape in a way that the molecule is released inside the membrane. This occurs in facilitated diffusion

    Nehru University‚ New Delhi‚ India‚ 2 School of Information Technology‚ Jawaharlal Nehru University‚ New Delhi‚ India Abstract CaMdr1p is a multidrug MFS transporter of pathogenic Candida albicans. An over-expression of the gene encoding this protein is linked to clinically encountered azole resistance. In-depth knowledge of the structure and function of CaMdr1p is necessary for an effective design of modulators or inhibitors of this efflux transporter. Towards this goal‚ in this study‚ we have

    both of these processes goes awry. Many different molecules control the cell cycle; Porto-oncogenes:Any gene whose proteins tends to promote mitotic cell division if called a proton-oncogene. The genes for growth factors‚ grow factor receptors‚ and some cyclins and Cdks are proton-oncogenes. In most cases‚ progress through the cell cycle beings when a growth-stimulating protein such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) binds to a receptor on the surface of a cell. This stimulates the synthesis of cyclins

    and tetracycline (T). The mode of action of Chloramphenicol is the inhibition of protein synthesis. Chloramphenicol irreversibly binds to a receptor sit on the 50S subunit of the ribosome on the bacteria that inhibits the enzyme peptidyl transferase. This inhibition results to the prevention of the transfer of amino acid for growing peptide chains which leads to the inhibition of the formation of bacterial protein. (Michigan State University‚ 2011). Chloramphenicol is a broad-spectrum antibiotic
