Study Notes on Bioluminescence | Microbiology

The below mentioned article provides study notes on bioluminescence which is an interesting aspect of energy metabolism.  Bioluminescence or emission of light by biological organisms is an interesting aspect of energy metabolism. Many different kinds of organisms, both prokaryotic and eukaryotic, show this property. Among the bacteria, bioluminescent species occur in the genera, Photo-bacterium, Vibrio and Beneckea. Many marine dinoflagellates [...]

Reversible Enzyme Inhibition | Microbiology

In this article we will discuss about competitive and non-competitive reversible enzyme inhibition. Competitive Inhibition: The main feature of competitive inhibition is that it can be reversed by increasing the substrate concentration in a reaction mixture which contains both the substrate and the inhibitor. The degree of inhibition depends on the relative concentrations of the substrate and the inhibitor. If [...]
