Metabolism is the set of chemical reactions that occur in living organisms to maintain life. It involves processes such as breaking down molecules to obtain energy (catabolism) and building up molecules for growth and repair (anabolism). Metabolism also includes the regulation of these processes to ensure that the body's energy needs are met and waste products are eliminated. Overall, metabolism is essential for the functioning of cells, tissues, and organs in an organism.
A protein is an organic compound made up of small molecules called amino acids. There are 20 different amino acids commonly found in the proteins of living organisms. Small proteins may contain just a few hundred amino acids, whereas large proteins may contain thousands of amino acids

Module 2 Overview
The Cell and Energy
Every tissue in every body of every organism is made of cells. The complexity of life ranges from the single-celled amoeba to large mammals containing innumerable cells, with many distinct types performing specific functions. This module will introduce you to the structure and function of cells and will describe the two major types—prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. You will then be introduced to the various types and functions of specific protein molecules called enzymes, which facilitate cellular processes.
All organisms require energy to perform the functions that sustain their lives. The chemical reactions at the heart of these functions are referred to as an organism's metabolism. The biochemical or metabolic pathways that these reactions take are a series of linked reactions that transform energy into a usable form.

Prokaryotic cells are smaller than eukaryotic cells. While eukaryotic cells can be much larger, they are still small. Cell size is important for a couple different reasons. Logistically, small cells are easier to replace. This is why they replicate and split. When cells become too large, it is more beneficial to split off and remain small and effective than to become too large, become less effective, and become harder to replace.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Protein binding sites Lecture physiology
1. Dr. Salman Ul Islam
Unit#1 BASIC CELL FUNCTIONS
Topic: Protein binding site characteristics
Physiology-A
2. All proteins bind to other molecules
The biological properties of a protein molecule depend on its physical interaction with
other molecules.
Thus, antibodies attach to viruses or bacteria to mark them for destruction, the enzyme
hexokinase binds glucose and ATP so as to catalyze a reaction between them, actin
molecules bind to each other to assemble into actin filaments, and so on.
Indeed, all proteins stick, or bind, to other molecules.
3. All proteins bind to other molecules
In some cases, this binding is very tight; in others, it is weak and short-lived.
But the binding always shows great specificity, in the sense that each protein molecule can
usually bind just one or a few molecules out of the many thousands of different types it
encounters.
The substance that is bound by the protein—no matter whether it is an ion, a small
molecule, or a macromolecule— is referred to as a ligand for that protein (from the Latin
word ligare, meaning “to bind”).
4. The binding of a protein to another molecule is
highly selective.
Many weak interactions are needed to enable a protein
to bind tightly to a second molecule (a ligand). The
ligand must therefore fit precisely into the protein’s
binding site, so that a large number of noncovalent
interactions can be formed between the protein and the
ligand. (A) Schematic drawing showing the binding of
a hypothetical protein and ligand; (B) space-filling
model of the ligand–protein interaction.
5. All proteins bind to other molecules
The ability of a protein to bind selectively and with high affinity to a ligand depends on the
formation of a set of weak, noncovalent bonds—hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and van der
Waals attractions—plus favorable hydrophobic interactions.
Because each individual bond is weak, an effective binding interaction requires that many
weak bonds be formed simultaneously.
This is possible only if the surface contours of the ligand molecule fit very closely to the
protein, matching it like a hand in a glove.
6. All proteins bind to other molecules
The region of a protein that associates with a ligand, known as the ligand’s binding site,
usually consists of a cavity in the protein surface formed by a particular arrangement of
amino acids.
These amino acids can belong to different portions of the polypeptide chain that are
brought together when the protein folds.
7. Binding sites allow proteins to interact with specific
ligands.
(A) The folding of the polypeptide chain typically
creates a crevice or cavity on the folded protein’s
surface, where specific amino acid side chains are
brought together in such a way that they can form a set
of noncovalent bonds only with certain ligands.
8. All proteins bind to other molecules
Although the atoms buried in the interior of the protein have no direct contact with the
ligand, they provide an essential scaffold that gives the surface its contours and chemical
properties.
Even tiny changes to the amino acids in the interior of a protein can change the protein’s
three-dimensional shape and destroy its function.
9. Human produce billions of different antibodies, each with a
different binding site
All proteins must bind to particular ligands to carry out their various functions. This
capacity for tight selective binding is displayed to an extraordinary degree by the antibody
family.
Antibodies, or immunoglobulins, are proteins produced by the immune system in
response to foreign molecules, such as those on the surface of an invading microorganism.
Each antibody binds to a particular target molecule extremely tightly, thereby either
inactivating the target directly or marking it for destruction.
An antibody recognizes its target (called an antigen) with remarkable specificity. Because
there are potentially billions of different antigens we might encounter, we have to be able to
produce billions of different antibodies.
10. An antibody is Y-shaped and has two identical antigen-binding sites, one on each arm of the Y.
(A) Schematic drawing of a typical antibody molecule. The protein is composed of four polypeptide chains
(two identical heavy chains and two identical, smaller light chains), stabilized and held together by disulfide
bonds (red ). Each chain is made up of several similar domains, here shaded with blue, for the variable domains,
or gray, for the constant domains. The antigen-binding site is formed where a heavy-chain variable domain (VH)
and a light-chain variable domain (VL) come close together. These are the domains that differ most in their
amino acid sequence in different antibodies—hence their name.
11. Enzymes are powerful and highly specific catalysts
Many proteins can perform their function simply by binding to another molecule. An actin
molecule, for example, need only associate with other actin molecules to form a filament.
There are other proteins, however, for which ligand binding is simply a necessary first step
in their function. This is the case for the large and very important class of proteins called
enzymes.
12. Enzymes are powerful and highly specific catalysts
Enzymes are remarkable molecules that determine all the chemical transformations that
make and break covalent bonds in cells.
They bind to one or more ligands, called substrates, and convert them into one or more
chemically modified products, doing this over and over again with amazing rapidity.
Enzymes speed up reactions, often by a factor of a million or more, without themselves
being changed—that is, they act as catalysts that permit cells to make or break covalent
bonds in a controlled way.
It is the catalysis of organized sets of chemical reactions by enzymes that creates and
maintains the cell, making life possible.
13. Enzymes convert substrates to products while remaining unchanged themselves.
Each enzyme has a site to which substrate molecules bind, forming an enzyme–substrate complex. There, a
covalent bond making and/or breaking reaction occurs, generating an enzyme–product complex. The product is
then released, allowing the enzyme to bind additional substrate molecules and repeat the reaction. An enzyme
thus serves as a catalyst, and it usually forms or breaks a single covalent bond in a substrate molecule.
14. Enzymes are powerful and highly specific catalysts
Enzymes can be grouped into functional classes that perform similar chemical reactions.
Each type of enzyme within such a class is highly specific, catalyzing only a single type of
reaction.
Thus, hexokinase adds a phosphate group to d-glucose but ignores its optical isomer l-
glucose; the blood-clotting enzyme thrombin cuts one type of blood protein between a
particular arginine and its adjacent glycine and nowhere else, and so on.
Enzymes work in teams, with the product of one enzyme becoming the substrate for the
next. The result is an elaborate network of metabolic pathways that provides the cell with
energy and generates the many large and small molecules that the cell needs.
