Effects of Substrate Concentration on Metabolic Activities

The effects of variations of substrate concentration on the velocity of an enzymatic reaction. We may only add that in some cases, variations of substrate or co-substrate concentration [S] can exert important effects on the metabolism by permitting either the synthesis, or on the contrary the degradation of a substance X, or by determining the metabolic pathway in which a [...]

Effects of Hormones on Metabolic Activities | Biochemistry

Pluricellular organisms are characterized by the existence of tissues, i.e. sets of cells which have acquired specialized functions. This specialization is ad­vantageous in the sense that it permits a distribution of work but it necessitates means of controlling and integrating the activities of various tissues. Hormones constitute precisely a means of communication between territories distant from one another. It was [...]
