Rate Of Reaction Hydrogen Bonding
2,165 wordsRESEARCH I know that Rennin is an enzyme, so before conducting this experiment I am first going to do some research into enzymes and their effects. 1. Enzymes Enzymes are large globular molecules of which the vast majority are protein in nature, though some, known as 'ribozyme's' are made of RNA. Enzymes have catalytic properties; in other words, they alter the rate of reaction without themselves undergoing a permanent change. Most chemical reactions require an initial input of energy, called ac...

Sympathetic Nervous System Behavioral Disorders
692 wordsBiology is an important part in a psychology course. Psychobiology is the area of psychology that focuses on the biological foundations of behavior and mental processes. The affects of drug addictions, behavioral disorders, sleep disturbances, memory, alterations in conscious awareness, and pain are all examples of the necessity of psychobiology during the biology chapters. Neurotransmitters are chemicals released by the synaptic vesicles that travel across the synaptic space and affect adjacent...

Behaviour Modification Negative Reinforcement
1,191 wordsThe purpose of this assignment was to examine behaviour modification and its applications in various settings. Reinforcement is a key concept when determining the various methods of behaviour modification and its consequences. Some methods of behaviour modification are more effective than others and this modifies the respective consequence as a result. More thought must be given to the various consequence for a persons action and this would eliminate numerous anxieties experienced through inappr...

Rate Of Reaction Reaction Rate
1,069 wordsThe purpose of this experiment is to measure the rates of reaction of the enzyme Alkaline Phosphatase with the substrate p-nitro phenol phosphate under varying conditions. The concentration of both substrate and enzyme were diluted and the inhibitor vanadate was utilized to determine whether or not the reaction is substrate or enzyme dependent and to see what type of inhibition vanadate was involved. A class of proteins called enzymes catalyzes almost every chemical reaction in a cell. Enzymes i...

Type 2 Diabetes Glucose Tolerance
1,072 words... ; Evidence of Therapeutic/Diagnostic Significance Although the concept of developing a GSK- 3 inhibitor is new to pharmacology, some of the small molecules / drugs are not. There exist several naturally occurring GSK- 3 inhibitors that have been used as treatments for other diseases as well as synthetic compounds that have been identified through the use of high-throughput screens (FIGURE 8). One class of natural inhibitors is the metal ions. The first metal ion discovered as a GSK- 3 inhibi...

Organic Molecules Life Span
525 wordsThe expression of genes is very complicated and is regulated by a number of things. Something that has a major effect on enzyme regulation and stability is temperature. Since enzymes are biochemical catalysts, made up at least partially of protein, they are sensitive in varying degrees to heat. Raising temperatures of the environment generally multiplies the degree of activity by the enzyme. Once an optimum temperature has been reached, however, temperatures that are too high will denature the e...

Health Care Services Gay And Lesbian Community
716 wordsProtease inhibitors. For more than a decade, researches and physicians tried to develop new treatment to fight HIV. They came up with some drugs; however, these drugs have proved to be usefulness. They did not cured HIV, but slowed it down. Today, a new class of drugs is providing a New Hope against fighting HIV: protease inhibitors. Protease inhibitors are antiviral drugs. They interrupt the way HIV uses a healthy cell to make more viruses. When HIV enters a normal healthy cell, its concerned w...
