Inspirational quotes from the thinkers of the world. I have also provided my personal comments to aid acquiring the meanings of these quotes in modern parlance.
The document contains advice and quotes for coaches about leadership, self-improvement, and helping others improve. It emphasizes that the most important role of a coach is to select the right people for the right jobs and kindle minds rather than impart their own opinions. Several quotes encourage focusing on changing oneself before trying to change society and seeing the world from new perspectives.
This presentation tries to lay the groundwork for developing a culture of creativity. While the presentation is directed to the Christian church, it's principles should be application also in the corporte world.
Cardinal Robert Sarah calls his book The Day Is Now Far Spent his most important work. In it, he analyzes the spiritual, moral, and political collapse of the Western world, concluding it faces mortal peril due to a loss of cultural identity. Western societies no longer know their history or origins. However, the cardinal argues it is possible to avoid a godless, hopeless world through renewing devotion to Christ through prayer and virtue.
Sickle cell anemia is caused by a substitution of valine for glutamic acid in hemoglobin. This abnormal hemoglobin (HbS) causes red blood cells to take on a sickle shape, which can get stuck in blood vessels and damage tissues. Heterozygotes have sickle cell trait while homozygotes have the full disease. Symptoms include anemia, jaundice, pain crises, and susceptibility to infections. Diagnosis involves tests like sickling tests and hemoglobin electrophoresis. Treatment focuses on prevention of infections, pain management, blood transfusions, and hydroxyurea.

The genetic code is highly complex, with 64 possible codons that specify 20 amino acids used by life on Earth. While the code was initially seen as a random accident, it is now known to be nearly universal across all life due to the catastrophic effects of changing decoding rules. However, some variations have emerged, with alternative codon assignments in mitochondrial genomes and use of a 22nd amino acid in some domains, showing the code is not entirely frozen and can change over long periods of evolution under the right conditions.
The document provides information on amino acids including their history, classification, structure and properties. It discusses how amino acids were first discovered in 1806 and classified based on nutritional requirements, polarity, metabolic fate and structure. Key points include that amino acids have an amino group and carboxyl group, exist in ionized forms in biological systems, and 20 are used as building blocks of proteins. Their physical properties like solubility, isoelectric point and ability to act as ampholytes are also covered.
This Course is included in the syllabus of Bachelor in Science Agriculture level study in Tribhuvan University. The course belongs to 1h lecture.This slide include general introduction of amino acid. It describes about structure, function , type and role of amino acid.
This presentation describes about the syllabus of Agriculture Microbiology for B.Sc agriculture student of second semester in Tribhuvan University, Nepal. It is helpful to understand the student about the courses and guide the students to focus in the related topics.
- Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and contain an amino group, carboxyl group, hydrogen atom, and side chain bonded to an alpha carbon.
- There are 20 standard amino acids that vary in properties based on their side chains. Phenylalanine, methionine, and tryptophan are hydrophobic while cysteine forms disulfide bridges.
- Proteins are made of chains of amino acids that can form different structures like fibrous or globular proteins depending on their shape and solubility.
This document summarizes the metabolism of the branched chain amino acids valine, leucine, and isoleucine. It describes how they are first transaminated to their corresponding keto acids, then undergo oxidative decarboxylation by alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase to form acyl-CoA thioesters. These are further dehydrogenated and enter different pathways, with valine being converted to propionyl-CoA and being glycogenic, leucine producing acetyl-CoA and acetoacetate and being ketogenic, and isoleucine undergoing both glycogenic and ketogenic fates. Defects in these pathways can cause diseases like maple syrup urine disease.
Classification of Amino Acids by farhan aliFarhan Ali
This document classifies and categorizes amino acids in several ways:
1. Chemically, amino acids are classified as monobasic/neutral, basic, or acidic depending on their number of COOH and NH2 groups. Neutral amino acids are further broken down into non-polar, sulfur-containing, hydroxyl, heterocyclic, and aromatic.
2. Amino acids are also classified based on the polarity of their side chains as non-polar, polar with no charge, positively charged, or negatively charged.
3. Nutritionally, amino acids are essential/indispensable, semi-essential, or non-essential based on whether the human body can synthesize them.
Metabolism of Brached Chain Amino Acid (Valine, Isoleucine, Leucine)Ashok Katta
Branched chain amino acids include leucine, isoleucine, and valine. They are broken down by the branched chain alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase complex in mitochondria. A defect in this enzyme can cause branched chain ketoaciduria, where patients accumulate branched chain amino acids and their keto acids in their urine, which smells like maple syrup or burnt sugar. This rare genetic disorder impairs other amino acid transport and protein synthesis, and can lead to seizures, vomiting, ketoacidosis, coma, and death if not treated with a low-branched chain amino acid diet and thiamine supplementation.
The document discusses the basic structures and properties of amino acids and proteins. It provides details on the 20 standard amino acids, including their abbreviations and the characteristics of their R-groups. The amino acids are classified as neutral, acidic, basic, or polar based on the properties of their side chains. Essential amino acids cannot be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained through diet.
Role of B6 phosphate in amino acid metabolismNamrata Chhabra
The document discusses vitamin B6 and its role in amino acid metabolism. It covers the history, sources, structures and isoforms of vitamin B6. The key active forms are pyridoxal phosphate and pyridoxamine phosphate. Vitamin B6 is required for important amino acid reactions like transamination and deamination. Transamination reactions involve the interconversion of amino acids and alpha-keto acids using vitamin B6 as a cofactor. They are important for synthesizing non-essential amino acids and recycling carbon skeletons. Deamination reactions remove amino groups from amino acids, producing ammonia, and use vitamin B6 cofactors.
The document discusses amino acids, which are molecules that contain an amine group, a carboxylic acid group, and a side chain. There are 22 standard amino acids that are incorporated into proteins, as well as non-standard amino acids. Amino acids join together to form peptides or longer protein chains. Methods for synthesizing alpha-amino acids include amination reactions, Gabriel synthesis, Strecker synthesis, resolution of racemic mixtures, and the Petasis reaction. Amino acids undergo various reactions including esterification, acylation, and the ninhydrin reaction.
The document provides information about amino acids and their classification. It discusses that amino acids are the monomer units that make up protein polymers. They can be classified based on their structure, side chains, nutritional requirements, and metabolic fate. The 20 standard amino acids are discussed in detail, including their physical and chemical properties. Key reactions of amino acids involving their amino, carboxyl, and side chain groups are also summarized.
Proteins are composed of chains of amino acids and serve important structural and functional roles in biology. They can be classified based on their composition, structure, and biological function. Common analytical techniques used to study proteins include chromatography, electrophoresis, and mass spectrometry which separate proteins based on properties like size and charge. The diversity of amino acid side chains allows proteins to adopt complex 3D structures and perform a wide variety of critical roles in the body.
Proteins are composed of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. There are four levels of protein structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. The primary structure is the linear sequence of amino acids. Secondary structures form based on hydrogen bonding patterns between amino acids. The two main secondary structures are the alpha helix, where amino acids coil into a helical shape, and the beta sheet, where amino acids align into beta strands connected by hydrogen bonds.
As we navigate through the ebbs and flows of life, it is natural to experience moments of low motivation and dwindling passion for our goals.
However, it is important to remember that this is a common hurdle that can be overcome with the right strategies in place.
In this guide, we will explore ways to rekindle the fire within you and stay motivated towards your aspirations.
