An amino acid is made up of four groups bonded to a central carbon atom. These groups include a hydrogen atom, a carboxyl group, an amine group and a R group. The R group differs for each amino acid. A pe...

Transcription is the process of of copying DNA information from a DNA strand, to form an mRNA, that can later be used to produce a protein in translation. Transcription will involve the double helix of DN...

The base sequence changes so the amino acid sequence changes therefore leading to a change in the types and location of bond formation thus a change in the tertiary structure occurs. This prevents the enz...

Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions by providing an alternative reaction pathway with lower activation energy.

Reduced NADP is used to reduce GP to TP. The ATP provides the energy needed for the reduction of the aforementioned reaction. It also provides a phosphate ion to regenerate RuBP from TP.
