<span>The structure and function relate because what the structure is made of infuences what the organ's function is. An example is that the heart is made of strong muscle cells. Therefore, it is fit to do the job of pumping blood around the body.</span>

Which of these statements are accurate? Hexokinase is a type of transferase that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphoryl group fr
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

A. The conformational shift that occurs when glucose, but not water, enters the active site prevents water from hydrolyzing ATP. True

B. Hexokinase consists of two domains, or lobes, that come together when glucose and the MgATP2–MgATP2– complex are bound. True  

C. Hexokinase is a type of transferase that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphoryl group from ATP to a hexose. True

Explanation:

A. Hexokinase suffers and conformational changes by binding glucose in a reaction that prevents ATP hydrolysis.

B. Hexokinase is an enzyme with two domains that function by binding to the substrate (i.e., glucose). The region linking both protein domains is responsible for the catalytic activity.

C. Hexokinase is a type of transferase that catalyzes the transfer of a phosphoryl group from ATP to a hexose. During the first stage of glycolysis, the hexokinase transfers one phosphorous group from magnesium-ATP (Mg-ATP) to one hexose molecule, such as fructose, mannose or glucose.

 

False statements:

- Most kinases require the presence of a monovalent metal ion cofactor to prevent ATP hydrolysis. False: In canonical kinases, conserved amino acids bind to divalent metal ions before the transference of the phosphate group to their substrates.

- Hexokinase is found in the mitochondrial membrane. False: Hexokinase is found in the cytosol.

- Hexokinase transfers the terminal phosphate of ATP to carbon 3 of glucose. False: Hexokinase catalyzes the transfer of the terminal phosphate ATP to form glucose 6-phosphate.

Let's suppose you were interested in developing drugs to prevent epigenetic changes that may contribute to cancer. What cellular
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

Potential targets:

1- DNA methyltransferases

2- Chromatin modifiers such as histone acetyltransferases, histone deacetylases, histone methyltransferases, etc.

3- Components of the RNA interference (RNAi) machinery such as Dicer, Argonaute, etc.

Explanation:

Epigenetics can be defined as the study of any heritable change in the phenotype that does not involve modifications in the DNA sequence. Epigenetic mechanisms can be classified into three major types: 1-DNA methylation, 2-histone modifications (e.g., acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, etc), and 3-regulatory non-coding RNAs (e.g., miRNAs, lncRNAs, siRNAs, etc) that modulate target gene expression via the RNA interference pathway. There are different types of proteins that are involved in these complex epigenetic mechanisms, and those cited above represent only some examples that can be used as therapeutic targets.

The body monitors fat stores by assessing levels of the hormone ____, which is produced and secreted by fat cells.​
Ivan
<span>Leptin. Leptin is produced by fat cells and released when your body has enough fat in storage. When leptin reaches the brain, it gives your body a feeling of fullness so that you will not want to continue eating. Individuals with leptin resistance, where the leptin hormone signals are not received as they should be, are often overweight because they do not have the same brain signals telling them that their body is full.</span>

Someone help me answer these questions, I’ll give brainlyyyy :))
Gnesinka [82]
1. The organisms at lower trophic levels have more consumable energy which provides the whale with more energy that organisms at other trophic levels.
2. Agree
3. Depending on the food chain, organisms can be on multiple trophic levels. For example, lions can be both a tertiary and secondary consumer.
