Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The reason for the measurement of aggrecan degradation by the release of glycosaminoglycan needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

The carbohydrates are combined with the proteins. Enzyme behaves aggrecan and produces a molecule.Some destruction can observe by the aggrecan.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The reason for the glycosaminoglycan release to not indicate the aggrecan degradation needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Glycosaminoglycan is also known as mucopolysaccharides which have a series of disaccharides. This series contains amino sugar and uronic sugar. Glycosaminoglycan is also written as GAGs.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The purpose of the control needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Enzyme behaves aggrecan and producesa molecule. Some destruction can observe by the aggrecan.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The effect of adding IL-2 needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

IL-2 is also known as interleukin which is a signaling molecule of the immune system.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

The response of aggrecanase inhibitor when IL-2 is added needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

IL-2 is also known as interleukin which is a signaling molecule of the immune system.

Interpretation Introduction

(f)

Interpretation:

The reason for aggrecan destruction in the control needs to be explained.

Concept introduction:

Enzyme behaves aggrecan and produces a molecule. Some destruction can observe by the aggrecan.

Biochemistry What is the process of "transamination" in either the muscles or the liver, that involves keto acid or glutamic acid? Please explain how the steps work. Thank you!
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you When carbamyl phosphate is joined to L-ornathine, where does the energy for the reaction come from?
