Dr Vasudevan will be fondly remembered by his students, as a committed teacher, guide and scholar in Biochemistry. He has authored the Textbook of Biochemistry for Medical Students, first edition was published in 1995, the eighth edition in 2016 and the ninth edition will be in the market by the middle of 2019.
Gobichettipalayam Vasudevan "G. V." Loganathan (April 8, 1954 – April 16, 2007) [1] was an Indian-American engineer, who, at the time of his death, was a professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental engineering, part of the College of Engineering at Virginia Tech, United States.
Rajagopalan Vasudevan, is an Indian scientist who has worked mainly in waste management. He is currently a professor in Thiagarajar College of Engineering. [1] He developed an innovative method to reuse plastic waste to construct better, more durable and very cost-effective roads. He thought up the idea of shredding plastic waste, mixing it ...
Lysine. Technically, any organic compound with an amine (–NH 2) and a carboxylic acid (–COOH) functional group is an amino acid. The proteinogenic amino acids are a small subset of this group that possess a central carbon atom (α- or 2-) bearing an amino group, a carboxyl group, a side chain and an α-hydrogen levo conformation, with the exception of glycine, which is achiral, and proline ...
Textbook of Biochemistry is divided into the following chapters: [2] Introduction; Introduction to the concept of biochemistry, and a review of catalytic reactions and pH. Food-Stuffs, Their Derivatives and Related Substances. Ideas regarding carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins. The Chemistry of Digestion, the Circulation, and the Excreto.
This reaction converts glucose 6-phosphate to fructose 6-phosphate in preparation for phosphorylation to fructose 1,6-bisphosphate. [2] The addition of the second phosphoryl group to produce fructose 1,6-bisphosphate is an irreversible step, and so is used to irreversibly target the glucose 6-phosphate breakdown to provide energy for ATP ...
This exposes the α[1→6] branching point, which is hydrolysed by α[1→6] glucosidase, removing the final glucose residue of the branch as a molecule of glucose and eliminating the branch. This is the only case in which a glycogen metabolite is not glucose-1-phosphate. The glucose is subsequently phosphorylated to glucose-6-phosphate by ...
Osazone formation was developed by Emil Fischer, [3] who used the reaction as a test to identify monosaccharides.. The formation of a pair of hydrazone functionalities involves both oxidation and condensation reactions. [4]
