Importance of Nitric Oxide (NO) in Health | Biochemistry

In this article we will discuss about the Importance of Nitric Oxide (NO) in Health and Disease:- 1. Formation of Nitric Oxide (NO) 2. Relaxative Action on Smooth Muscle of Blood Vessels 3. Important Biologic Functions. Formation of Nitric Oxide (NO): 1. Nitric oxide (NO) is formed by the action of the enzyme NO synthase, which is cytosolic. The endothelial [...]

Muscle: Structure, Proteins and Phosphagens | Biochemistry

In this article we will discuss about Muscle:- 1. Muscle Structure 2. Proteins in Muscle 3. Phosphagens 4. Inorganic Constituents. Muscle Structure: 1. Skeletal muscle is composed of fibrils sur­rounded by electrically excitable mem­brane, the sarcolemma. 2. The individual muscle fibre consists of a bundle of many myofibrils arranged in parallel. These are embedded by intramus­cular fluid termed the sarcoplasm. [...]
