What are stepwise procedure for analysis of chemical composition of biomolecules ?

Pratyay Islam 18th Mar, 2020

Hello Student ,

The composition of living tissue/biomolecules can be studied by chemical analysis. The stepwise procedure is as follows

  1. Living tissue is taken and grinded in trichloroacetic acid.
  2. Then the mixture is strained with a cheese cloth
  3. Filtrate and Retentate are obtained after straining.
  4. Filtrate contains the acid solube pool - Mol Wt of biomolecules- 18-1800 Daltons . These are biomicromolecules.
  5. Retentate contains Acid Insoluble pool - Mol Wt of biomolecules - >800 D. These are biomarcomolecules.

Note : Lipids are absent in biomicromolecular pool due to their non polar nature. They associate and form larger compounds.

what is the full form of RUBISCO

Payal 11th Oct, 2019

Hii aspirants

let me clear your doubt.

The full form of RuBisCO is Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase.It  is an enzyme that catalyzes the first major step of carbon fixation in the Calvin cycle.In  this process atmospheric carbon dioxide is converted by plants and other photosynthetic organisms to energy-rich molecules .in this preocess enzyme helps the carbon dioxide attach to the ribulose bisphosphate, a five-carbon sugar chain into the  product that  is a six-carbon molecule that is split in half by the rubisco “to form two molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate” with three carbon atoms.

I hope my answer will help you out

Good luck
