In this article we will discuss about Electron Transport System (ETS) in living organisms. Catabolism of energy-giving substrates (mostly glucose) up to the stage of pyruvic acid through EMP or EDP yields comparatively small amount of energy in the form of ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation. The anaerobic organisms have to be satisfied with this small […]

Control of Metabolism in Microorganisms
Article Shared by
In this article we will discuss about the regulation and control of metabolism in microorganisms. The biological organisms, specially microorganisms take up nutrients and metabolize them through numerous enzyme-catalysed reactions to build-up their body components as well as extract energy. All these anabolic and catabolic reactions run in a highly coordinated and harmonious manner to […]
