BIS 105 Lecture 2: 2
Document Summary
Regulatory enzymes, allosteric enzymes, allosteric site present, molecule binds it, can either upregulate or downregulate the enzyme function, covalently-modified enzymes, not all enzymes are proteins (i. e. inorganic metals, small organic molecules like. Inactive form of an enzyme that requires covalent modification to become active. Content category 1b: transmission of genetic information from the gene to the protein. Nucleic acid structure and function (bio, bc: description, nucleic acids can be dna or rna, single-stranded or double-stranded, protein coat covers the nucleic acid, the 2 single-strands are anti-parallel to each other. Dna replication (bio: mechanism of replication: separation of strands, specific coupling of free nucleic acids, 1. To do this: dna gyrase (class ii topoisomerase) responsible for uncoiling the dna ahead of the replication fork, helicase responsible for unwinding dna at replication fork, single-strand binding protein (ssb) responsible for keeping dna unwound after helicase. Ssbs stabilize ssdna by binding to it: 2.
