Glycogen, an energy reservoir in animals, is a highly branched molecule or polysaccharide. It is present in the liver and skeletal muscles. When there is lack of glucose in blood, glycogen serves as...
Glycogens are animals' energy reserves and are highly branched glucose polymers. They are similar to starch, which is present as an energy reservoir in plant cells. The liver contains a high...
Enzymes are biological catalysts with extraordinary catalytic power. They are central to every biochemical process. We know living systems derive energy from the surroundings through...
An enzyme, DNA polymerase, catalyzes the synthesis of new DNA molecules from deoxyribonucleotides (the building blocks of DNA). It is crucial in living organisms' DNA replication, repair, and...
Different diagnostic tests require other immunological processes to detect antibodies and antigens. Immunofluorescence assay is one of the most commonly used immunological...
