During week 2 of the menstrual cycle (day 8 to day 14 or
ovulation), estrogen levels rise until it reaches its peak. Typically, days
12-14 have the highest levels of estrogen, which causes an increase in Luteinizing Hormone, which is responsible for the release of the egg cell. If
hormone levels fail to reach its peak before day 14, ovulation is not possible
because the egg cannot be released. Pregnancy may be highly unlikely.
Answer:
The enzyme Topoisomerase functions to prevent super-coiling of the DNA molecule during replication.
Explanation:
- During replication, topoisomerases are required to relieve the positive supercoiling that arises from DNA unwiding mediated by Helicases.
- A DNA topoisomerase is a nuclease that breaks a phosphodiester bond in a DNA strand.
- All topoiomereases are classified as Topoisomerase I and Topoisomerase II depending on whether they cleave one or two strands respectively.
- Topoisomerase I do not use ATP as a source of energy, the reaction is powered by energy stored in super-coiled DNA.
- Topoisomerase II also do not require external energy but it utilizes ATP hydrolysis to drive conformation changes in the protein during reaction cycle.
