  1. How are ribosomes formed in prokaryotes (particularly in bacteria) which lack a nucleolus?
  2. Biochemistry class. I only know it's a trisaccharide.
  3. It's supposed to be a trisaccharide but couldn't find anything about it from google.
  4. I think I can visualize what is happening in the second row... (somewhat) The reaction form D-Glucose to 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfurol beats me. Well, I studied very basic organic chemistry.. only common functional groups, their nomenclature, isomerism etc. And that was a few years ago.. I had switched to physical sciences for 3 years and now I switched back to life sciences (this is from my biochemistry course).
  5. OK, what's going on here? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Molisch_test.png
  6. Yes. But I can't understand the mechanisms from just pictures and equations.
  7. I am supposed to make notes explaining the exact mechanisms for these tests: Molisch's test, Anthrone test, Benedict's test, Barfoed's test, Bial's orcinol test, Seliwanoff's test, Osazone test All I could find are sh***y notes from my seniors who can't even spell 'Molisch'. All their structure diagrams are, to put is mildly, retarded (some carbons have 5 bonds etc.). Please help me find the exact structures of the reagents involved, the exact mechanism of the reaction, what's the test for etc.
