Galactose

... these two homework questions. I have no idea where/how to start to figure these out. You have isolated several yeast mutants unable to metabolize galactose. All of the mutants fail to transcribe the GAL2 gene, which encodes the enzyme for the first step in metabolizing galactose. For mutants a. ...

plz help....i need this urgently......i have isolated a mutant cell of yeast that cannot take part in a particular step of galactose metabolism...in order to identify the gene responsible for it.....i have transformed the cell with plasmid vectors containing fragments of genomes of ...

... as to how to make a 100 mg/mL solution. I also do not know how to accurately record the enzymes activity other than by looking at the glucose and galactose concentration in a given period of time (in this case, 5 minutes); now the problem lies in what are some precise ways to measure the glucose ...

... the body, to the tissues and into the cells. Aerobic respiration, as opposed to anaerobic, uses oxygen as well as a monosaccharide (glucose, galactose, fructose etc) to create adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This does, however, cause the release of free radicals, which can damage the cell nucleus ...

... or "down" relative to the ring. If there are any 1-6 bonds these cause branching -- these branches are common in starch. I wrote "Galactose is pure 1-4 α-bound glucose while starch is a polymer of the pure 1-4 β form" Oops. That should have been: Starch is pure 1-4 α-bound ...
