Since there are no genes coding for carbohydrates and lipids, how do cells produce them?

<span>Cell code for enzymes that can convert other molecules into carbohydrates, nucleic acids and lipids. Humans can synthesize 11 out of the 20 amino acids and bacteria can synthesize all 20. Plus bacteria can synthesize many of the vitamins that humans cannot, including vitamin C. As far as humans are concerned, we can make carbohydrates and glycogen from glucose. We use some amino acids to make nucleic acids and we can synthesize lipids and cholesterol from acetyl coA. There are certain types of fatty acids we can't synthesize and we must get them from our diet.</span>

Two potential functions that eukaryotic cells perform to regulate transcription are
tester [92]
Two potential functions that eukaryotic cells perform to regulate transcription are DNA methylation: a process of epigenetics that participates in the regulation of the gene expression in two ways, directly impeding the union of the transcription factors, and indirectly propitiating the closed structure of the chromatin, and Histone acetylation, enzymes that acetylate conserved lysine residues in histones by transferring an acetyl group from an acetyl-CoA molecule, to form ε-N-acetyl lysine, is extensively associated with an open chromatin structure and therefore accessible to transcription factors, which increases gene expression.

There are two checkpoints during the cell cycle that regulate cell division. They are right before the _____ phase and _____ pha
lana [24]
<span>Two checkpoints during the cell cycle that regulate cell division are right before S phase and M phase.

</span>Cell cycle checkpoints are control mechanisms <span>necessary for proper cell division. </span><span>In the cell cycle, there are two checkpoints: </span><span>the G1 checkpoint and the G2 checkpoint. <u>The G1 checkpoint is right before the S phase, and G2 checkpoint is right before the M phase.</u>
If something is wrong at the G1 checkpoint, the cell will not enter the cell cycle. It is important to be delayed before cell enters S phase where DNA replication commences.
The G2 checkpoint is a DNA damage checkpoint and if DNA is damaged, entering the cell cycle is delayed before mitosis (M phase).</span>
