Enzyme kinetics

Enzyme kinetics from E. coli with its two substrates, dihydrofolate (right) and NADPH (left), bound in the active site. The protein is shown as a ribbon diagram , with alpha helices in red, beta sheets in yellow and loops in blue. Generated from 7DFR . Enzyme kinetics is the study of the chemic more

Proteasome

Proteasome Proteasomes are large protein complex es inside all eukaryote s and archaea , as well as in some bacteria . In eukaryotes, they are located in the nucleus and the cytoplasm .Peters JM, Franke WW, Kleinschmidt JA. (1994) Distinct 19S and 20S subcomplexes of the 26S proteasome and their more

Xenon

Xenon Xenon ( in the UK, in the US) is a chemical element that has the symbol Xe and atomic number 54. A colorless, heavy, odorless noble gas , xenon occurs in the earth's atmosphere in trace amounts. Although generally unreactive, xenon can undergo a few chemical reaction s such as the forma more

Enzyme inhibitor

Enzyme inhibitor protease in a complex with the protease inhibitor ritonavir . The structure of the protease is shown by the red, blue and yellow ribbons. The inhibitor is shown as the smaller ball-and-stick structure near the centre. Created from PDB 1HXW . Enzyme inhibitors are molecule s that more
