Feedback Inhibition of Enzymes | Biochemistry

Learn about:- 1. Meaning of Feedback Inhibition 2. Control of Enzyme Synthesis –Induction 3. Control of Enzyme Synthesis -Repression and De-repression. Meaning of Feedback Inhibition: The changes in the concentration of substrates, coenzymes, activators or inhibitors affect the cata­lytic efficiency of an enzyme. Feedback inhibition inhibits the activity of an enzyme early in the biosynthetic pathway. In the biosynthetic reaction, [...]

Notes on the Genetic Code

The below mentioned article provides short notes on the genetic code. The DNA carries the genetic information for the type of protein to be synthesized. The genetic information is transmitted to the ribosomes which is the place of protein synthesis through mRNA which moves from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. The mRNA is formed from the DNA or part of [...]
