Complex II, also known as succinate-coenzyme Q reductase (SQR) or Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), is the only complex in the electron transport chain that is not involved with proton (H+) transport, unlike complexes I, III, and IV which ARE proton pumps driven by ...
Like many others, the first time I learned about the Kreb's cycle was in Principles of Biology I, but it was a general overview. It was great to have an in-depth understanding of the chemical processes that lead to the well-known products! #prescottbiochemistry
@MuhammadHuss93 I've used Organic Chemistry Tutor before for orgo, but didn't know that it expanded beyond that! Thanks for the rec!! #prescottbiochemistry
@Maggie3161@khanacademy I love how Khan Academy has multiple ways of getting across the material depending on your learning style. They have videos and written descriptions of thousands of topics to explore! I know that I learn best by visual demonstrations so it looks like it will be helpful.
#prescottbiochemistry MIT OpenCourseWare is an excellent YT channel that has many biochemistry related material. The "Glycolysis, Respiration, and Fermentation" video gives a great overview of topics from module week 11! https://t.co/RB0VSAgbj4
It's great to get information...
Hey #sciencetwitter, what are some good resources for understanding more about the Warburg effect (where cancer cells prefer the less efficient metabolism via glycolysis over the oxidative phosphorylation pathway)? #chemtwitter#prescottbiochemistry
"You give footballer one million euros a month and biological researchers 1,800 euros. You are looking for a treatment now. Go to Cristiano Ronaldo or Messi and they will find you a cure" - A Spanish biological researcher.
That's deep!🤔 #CoronavirusOutbreak#CoronavirusPandemic
#prescottbiochemistry My #lightbulbmoment was seeing the connection between the functional groups we learn about in orgo and the reactions that take place in peptide synthesis!
Found this interesting article on medium chain triacylglycerols. We learned about the components this week; glycerol bound to three fatty acid molecules that can be saturated (all single bonds) or unsaturated (at least one double bond). #prescottbiochemistry
