3- Transport function Albumin.Tyroxine binding protein (TBP), transferrin, apoproteins..etc.

4- Enzymes and coenzymes: renin, orosomucoid (coenzymes of LPL)

5- Role in coagulation and fibrinolysis: fibrinogen, thrombin. antithrombin

6- Role in immunity: Ig (lgA JgG.lgM) and complement proteins

Triss [41]

Answer:

Ethanol is most likely to be a (B), competitive inhibitor.

Explanation:

The poisoing occurs because of the harmful metabolites produced by the alcohol dehydrogenases, enzymes in charge of breaking down alcohol.

Hence, the most likely strategy of an antidote is to compete for the active site of the enzyme and prevent the methanol convertion to harmful chemicals.

Ethanol does not produce these metabolites and it is preferentially proccessed by the body, so it is a competitive inhibitor, competing for the active site.

The reaction mixture for PCR is missing the enzyme Taq polymerase. Which step of PCR would this affect?
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The missing of Taq DNA polymerase will affect the DNA synthesis or polymerization step.

Explanation:

Taq DNA polymerase is also known as termostable DNA polymerase because it is able to exert its catalytic activity at high temperature.

     Taq DNA polymerase is used for the 3rd step of polymerase chain reaction which deals with the joining of nucleotides by phosphodiester bond formation.

     The missing or lack of Taq DNA polymerase will affect the DNA synthesis step of PCR.
