D enzyme –>
4-alpha-d-glucanotransferase
dextrin transglycosylase or glycosyltransferase;a 4-glycosyltransferase converting maltodextrins into amylose and glucose by transferring parts of 1,4-glucan chains to new 4-positions on glucose or other 1,4-glucans.
Synonym: amylomaltase, d enzyme, dextrin glycosyltransferase, dextrin transglycosylase, disproportionating enzyme.
Proteins have a crucial role in various biological activities. Get to know how proteins are able to perform as enzymes, cofactors, or regulators. In this tutorial, you will also know the common metabolic pathways of biomolecules, such as glucose and other carbohydrates, fats, proteins and amino acids, and essential nutrients...
Plants are responsible for incredible feats of molecular transformation. Plant processes, such as photosynthesis, photophosphorylation, chemiosmosis, carbon fixing reactions, respiration, are presented in this tutorial...
The gastrointestinal system breaks down particles of ingested food into molecular forms by enzymes through digestion and then transferred to the internal environment by absorption. Find out more about these processes carried out by the gastrointestinal system through this tutorial...
Genes are expressed through the process of protein synthesis. This elaborate tutorial provides an in-depth review of the different steps of the biological production of protein starting from the gene up to the process of secretion. Also included are topics on DNA replication during interphase of the cell cycle, DNA mutation and repair mechanisms, gene pool, modification, and diseases...
Learn how the way genes control and determine every aspect of the body. This lesson uses lac operon as an example. ..
Plants protect themselves by releasing hydrogen peroxide to fight against fungal invasion. Another way is by secreting compounds, such as lignin, ethylene, galls, and tannins. Find out how these mechanisms protect the plants from pathogens...
