    Therefore the grains need to be cracked. 3. Mashing In this step, the malt is converted to a sweet liquid called the wort. The milled barley is mixed with water and heated to about 75oC. Heating results in a solution which can dissolve the starch. Enzymes are produced which break down starch in the malt in to simple sugars like glucose, maltose and maltotriose. This process is called saccharification. The resulting solution rich in sugar is strained and is then called wort. 4. Brewing/Boiling (sterilize

    isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) (1). The focus of such research is the mutant forms of NADP-dependent homologous enzymes IDH1 and IDH2 (2) - localized predominantly in cytosolic and mitochondrial regions, respectively. Both of these heterozygous point mutations modify the amino acid residue present at the active site of the original enzyme. Subsequently, neomorphic activity of the enzyme IDH is established, replacing its original function with the conversion of the α-Ketoglutarate (α-KG) to D-2-hydroxyglutarate

    Introduction Without enzymes the existence of life is questionable since all metabolic processes in the cell cannot occur at a faster rate enough to sustain life. All the essential biological reactions in living things depend on enzymes’ catalytic activity. Enzymes are usually proteins, though some Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) molecules act as enzymes too, that speed up the rate of biological reactions without being consumed by the reaction. (Reece,2016, p.83) For instance, the presence of enzymes in the conversion

    An enzyme is a macromolecule that acts as a catalyst, a chemical agent that speeds up a reaction without being consumed by the reaction (Coleman 2016). With different pHs and temperatures the enzyme’s rate of reaction can drastically alter. For example, peroxidase, a type of enzyme that is found in various plant tissues, was used to look into the reactions of Guaiacol + H2O2 -> Tetraguaiacol +2H2O mixed into test tubes. Following the extract of the enzyme the process of standardization was taking

    Creatine can be synthesized in the human body itself. Synthesis involves three amino acids: glycine, arginine and methionine mainly. The two enzymes that drives the Cr synthesis are arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT), guanidinoacetate methyltransferase (GAMT). Creatine synthesis is a two-step process catalyzed by the above mentioned enzymes. AGAT catalyzes arginine and glycine forming ornithine and guanidinoacetate. AGAT is very specific to the amino acids in the

    RESULTS Isolation of BbovM17LAP gene The BbM17LAP gene available in GenBank (accession no. XP_001609968) was accessed through the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), and its sequence was retrieved for further analysis. The genomic DNA of BbM17LAP was found in chromosome 2, extending between 1,045,409 bp and 1,047,164 bp of the genome. The ORF of the corresponding mRNA encoding BbM17LAP consists of 1,578 bp. Alignment of the mRNA sequence with genomic DNA using Genetyx revealed that

    This discrepancy can be explained by another feature of 22Rv1 cells. In these cells, Tet caused significant and rapid increase in phosphorylation of the initially very low p-eIF2α. It is well known that phosphorylation of eIF2α at Ser51 serves as a switch, which effectively suppresses translation initiation by preventing the functioning of eIF2B, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor [50]. eIF2B facilitates the exchange of GDP for GTP on eIF2 to restore active eIF2·GTP complex, which binds the initiator

    The fermentation rate was tested to two different sugar in room temperature and same concentration of yeast enzyme. It is hypothesized that yeast fermentation rate with aspartame is lower than glucose because yeast has hard time to break down the structure of aspartame. The average fermentation rate of glucose was 0.0223096 kPa/s and aspartame rate was -0.002897kPa/s. The standard error in the figure indicate there are a significant difference between the glucose and aspartame fermentation rate

    can limit starting library total amount. Also the concentration of salt and the temperature changes which can be happening during the electrophoresis run, so according to all that we can say the conditions of final binding of the aptamer is difficult to be under full control. Another related tactic which using the affinity of chromatography also has been applied, but this tactic surrounded by the problem of low level of reaction. DNA aptamer was selected against human immunoglobulin E (IgE) by using

    be further discussed later in the enzymatic hydrolysis part. Enzymatic Hydrolysis Enzymatic hydrolysis is the most common way to produce bioactive peptides from the whole protein molecules and latent bioactive peptides (Korhonen & Pihlanto, 2006). Enzyme such as pepsin and trypsin in digestive system are known to further process the latent bioactive peptide produced by Lactobacillus GG strain to activate the peptide as a
