| 21. | Because of their secretory function, these cells have many small granules of zymogens that are visible.
|
| 22. | CPB2 is synthesized by the liver and circulates in the plasma as a plasminogen-bound zymogen.
|
| 23. | The enzyme is initially in an inactive precursor zymogen form, with an additional amino terminal peptide sequence.
|
| 24. | "' Procarboxypeptidase "'is a precursor ( zymogen ) to the pancreatic enzyme carboxypeptidase.
|
| 25. | The zymogen granules are the vesicles that store enzymes near the plasma membrane for easy release when stimulated.
|
| 26. | The pancreas secretes zymogens partly to prevent the enzymes from digesting proteins in the cells in which they are synthesised.
|
| 27. | Trypsinogen is normally created and stored an inactive zymogen of trypsin in the pancreas, but occasionally will autoactivate itself.
|
| 28. | The precursor zymogens, are inactive variants of the enzymes; which avoids the onset of pancreatitis caused by autodegradation.
|
| 29. | ABP molecules serve as probes to irreversibly bind only to active proteases and ignore their zymogen precursors and inhibited proteases.
|
| 30. | This zymogen is activated by hydrochloric acid ( HCl ), which is released from parietal cells in the stomach lining.
