  2. Homogeneity and heterogeneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneity_and_heterogeneity

    Homogeneous reactions are chemical reactions in which the reactants and products are in the same phase, while heterogeneous reactions have reactants in two or more phases. Reactions that take place on the surface of a catalyst of a different phase are also heterogeneous. A reaction between two gases or two miscible liquids is homogeneous.

  3. Hydrogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogenation

    The reaction depicted below describes the hydrogenation of benzophenone: A chemical kinetics study [34] found this reaction is first-order in all three reactants suggesting a cyclic 6-membered transition state. Another system for metal-free hydrogenation is based on the phosphine-borane, compound 1, which has been called a frustrated Lewis pair.

  4. Biological process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_process

    Biological processes are made of many chemical reactions or other events that are involved in the persistence and transformation of life forms. [1] Regulation of biological processes occurs when any process is modulated in its frequency, rate or extent.

  5. Glycosylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycosylation

    In biology (but not always in chemistry), glycosylation usually refers to an enzyme-catalysed reaction, whereas glycation (also 'non-enzymatic glycation' and 'non-enzymatic glycosylation') may refer to a non-enzymatic reaction. [1] Glycosylation is a form of co-translational and post-translational modification.

  6. Homogenization (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogenization_(biology)

    In histopathology, pathologic homogenization is seen as a loss of variations, such as of collagen in lichen sclerosus (pictured).. Homogenization, in cell biology or molecular biology, is a process whereby different fractions of a biological sample become equal in composition.

  7. Electron transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_transfer

    Example of a reduction–oxidation reaction between sodium and chlorine, with the OIL RIG mnemonic [1] Electron transfer (ET) occurs when an electron relocates from an atom, ion, or molecule, to another such chemical entity. ET describes the mechanism by which electrons are transferred in redox reactions. [2] Electrochemical processes are ET

  8. Isozyme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isozyme

    In biochemistry, isozymes (also known as isoenzymes or more generally as multiple forms of enzymes) are enzymes that differ in amino acid sequence but catalyze the same chemical reaction. Isozymes usually have different kinetic parameters (e.g. different K M values), or are regulated differently.

  9. Glossary of cellular and molecular biology (0–L) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_cellular_and...

    A transfer RNA to which a cognate amino acid is chemically bonded; i.e. the product of a transesterification reaction catalyzed by an aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase. Aminoacyl-tRNAs bind to the aminoacyl site of the ribosome during translation. amplicon Any DNA or RNA sequence or fragment that is the source and/or product of an amplification reaction.
