can galactose be convert into fructose?

... otherwise you could never utilize any other sugar than fructose or glucose. Galactose for example can be converted to glucose via Galactose-1-phosphate uridyl transferase. fructose can be phosphorylated by fructokinase, from where it enters the glycolysis pathway, which can then generate glucose ...

Protein phosphorylation

... or Asp/Glu is if my protein was Ser-phosphorylated? 2. Is it simply mimicing because the presence of the -COOH group in Asp/Glu is similar to a phosphate group? 3. Can Asp/Glu mimic threonine (Thr) or tyrosine (Tyr) phosphorylations as well? I guess it could for Thr as well, since Ser and Thr ...

membrane permeability

... reducing an ATP molecule to ADP. In turn, in the 4th step of the NA+/K+ ATPase, two K+ ions move into the cell, while also loosing an attached phosphate molecule. Therefore regardless of the sudden permeabilty change, the ration of Na+/K+ is still 3:2. Thank you for your time Newtobiology

5' 3' DNA

... "five prime" and "three prime", which in turn indicate the carbon numbers in the DNA's sugar backbone. The 5' carbon has a phosphate group attached to it and the 3' carbon a hydroxyl group. This asymmetry gives a DNA strand a "direction". For example, DNA polymerase ...
