  2. Mitochondrial matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitochondrial_matrix

    The cytosolic, intermembrane space, compartment has a higher aqueous:protein content of around 3.8 μL/mg protein relative to that occurring in mitochondrial matrix where such levels typically are near 0.8 μL/mg protein. [4] It is not known how mitochondria maintain osmotic balance across the inner mitochondrial membrane, although the membrane ...

  3. Lysosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysosome

    In step two a lysosome with an active hydrolytic enzyme comes into the pictures as the food vacuole moves away from the plasma membrane. Step three consists of the lysosome fusing with the food vacuole and hydrolytic enzymes entering the food vacuole. In the final step, step four, hydrolytic enzymes digest the food particles. [5]

  4. Purine metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purine_metabolism

    The formation of 5'-phosphoribosylamine from glutamine and PRPP catalysed by PRPP amino transferase is the regulation point for purine synthesis. The enzyme is an allosteric enzyme, so it can be converted from IMP, GMP and AMP in high concentration binds the enzyme to exerts inhibition while PRPP is in large amount binds to the enzyme which ...

  5. Metabolic pathway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metabolic_pathway

    The reactants, products, and intermediates of an enzymatic reaction are known as metabolites, which are modified by a sequence of chemical reactions catalyzed by enzymes. [1]: 26 In most cases of a metabolic pathway, the product of one enzyme acts as the substrate for the next. However, side products are considered waste and removed from the cell.

  6. Protein metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_metabolism

    Post-translational modifications can occur before protein folding or after. Common biological methods of modifying peptide chains after translation include methylation, phosphorylation, and disulfide bond formation. Methylation often occurs to arginine or lysine and involves adding a methyl group to a nitrogen (replacing a hydrogen).

  7. Carbohydrate catabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate_catabolism

    A second contributing factor is that cristae, the inner membranes of mitochondria, increase the surface area and therefore the amount of proteins in the membrane that assist in the synthesis of ATP. Along the electron transport chain, there are separate compartments, each with their own concentration gradient of H + ions, which are the power ...

  8. Cytochrome c oxidase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytochrome_c_oxidase

    The enzyme cytochrome c oxidase or Complex IV (was EC 1.9.3.1, now reclassified as a translocase EC 7.1.1.9) is a large transmembrane protein complex found in bacteria, archaea, and the mitochondria of eukaryotes.

  9. Aminopeptidase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aminopeptidase

    Aminopeptidases are a diverse group of enzymes that play crucial roles in various biological processes, including protein digestion, cell growth, and immune response.They are classified based on their substrate specificity (strength of binding) and catalytic mechanism (means of catalyzing their reaction) into two main categories: metalloaminopeptidases and cysteine aminopeptidases.
