Answer:

Disulfide linkage/bond

Explanation:

The tertiary and quarternary structure of the protein is stabilized by Disulfide linkage which is formed between two thiol groups in the protein. 2-mercaptoethanol is a reducing agent that breaks this disulfide bond.  

A protein becomes denature when it loses its native configuration and becomes inactive. So as 2-mercaptoethanol breaks disulfide bond in protein it looses its native configuration and becomes denatured. 2-mercaptoethanol  is used in SDS-PAGE to separate protein subunits. Therefore the correct answer is Disulfide linkage/bond.

Verizon [17]

Answer:

The cell membrane controls what goes in and out by having protein channels that act like funnels in some cases and pumps in other cases. Passive transport does not require energy molecules and happens when a funnel opens in the membrane, letting molecules flow through.

Lera25 [3.4K]
<h2>Answer is option "C"</h2>

Explanation:

  • NAD+ is a significant co-compound for hydride move catalysts fundamental to numerous metabolic procedures including glycolysis, pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, the TCA cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The catalysts utilizing NAD+ in hydride-move are known as dehydrogenases or oxidoreductases, which catalyze the decrease of NAD+ into NADH  
  • NADH shaped from glycolysis (by means of the malate-aspartate transport) or the TCA cycle can respond at Complex I, otherwise called the NADH/coenzyme Q reductase in the mitochondrial electron transport chain [28]. Each NADH devoured by the mitochondria brings about the net creation of 3 ATP atoms (Figure 1). The total oxidation of one glucose atom creates 2 NADH reciprocals in cytosol and 8 NADH particles in mitochondria, empowering creation of 30 ATP counterparts from NADH of the aggregate of 36 ATP counterparts got from the entire procedure of catabolizing glucose to CO2 and H2O.
  • Hence, the right answer is option C " the available NAD+ would be converted to NADH and glycolysis would stop due to lack of NAD+.
