The recycling of which compound ensures the continuation of glycolysis under anaerobic conditions?

Biology
1 answer:
Mariana [72]3 years ago
8 0


The answer is NAD+.

In the process of glycolysis, NAD+ is reduced to form NADH+ and H+.  If NAD+ is not present, glycolysis will not be able to continue. Under anaerobic conditions, the regeneration of NAD is coupled to the reduction of pyruvate. The anaerobic regeneration of NAD is called fermentation.

In animal tissues , fermentation occurs as  pyruvate acts  as a makeshift hydrogen acceptor and gets  reduced to lactate when NADH transfers electrons to pyruvate. This enzyme catalyzed reaction occurs whenever the available oxygen has been consumed.

What role does the MutL protein play in DNA repair? (5 POINTS) It performs a proofreading function, similar to DNA polymerase, a
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

It recognizes and binds to a pair of "mismatched" nucleotides, preventing their translation.

Explanation:

Mut L protein is involved in mismatch DNA repair. MutL protein is complexed with MutS protein and the MutL-MutS complex recognizes all the mismatched base pairs present in the newly formed DNA strand. The complex can not recognize the "C-C" pairs. MutH protein joins the complex.

The MutH protein also has a site-specific endonuclease activity and cleaves the unmethylated DNA strand towards the 5' end of the guanine base in the GATC sequence to mark the strand for DNA repair. In this way, MutL protein, along with MutS and MutH proteins mark the mismatched DNA bases for repair so that they are not translated into a faulty protein.

Identify what types of of questions that can be answered by science
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

There are many questions that can be answered by science but I will provide some examples below.

Explanation:

Science involves many areas of study, <u>from biology and chemistry to physics and neuroscience</u>. Generating questions and providing answers are the most important steps in science as this process has allowed thousands of scientists to develop new drugs to treat previously-mortal diseases, to protect endangered species, to prevent population declines, to understand the behavior of fauna, among many other remarkable outcomes and discoveries.

In this answer, I will focus on some questions belonging to the life sciences areas that can be answered by science:
