Cathode

120031007:

A cathode is a negatively charged electrode which attracts cations (positive ions). The cathode can cause reduction to occur as it is an electron donor<ref>Chimed.chem.wisc.edu/chempaths/GenChem-Textbook/Electrolysis-696.html</ref>. See [[Anode|anode]].

120031007:

An acid has a value lower than 7. It is a substance that will react with water to produce H3O+ and with a base to neutralize to water and a salt. On a universal indicator, strong acids show up as a red or dark orange colour and weaker acids show up as an orange or yellow colour.

 The bond between a sugar and another molecule, usually another sugar. The chemical bond is formed by a condensation reaction, the hydroxyl group on the sugar reacts with the other molecule forming a glycosidic bond and releasing a molecule of water.

SNARE

2012-12-11T15:49:02Z

120031007:

SNAREs are transmembrane [[Proteins|proteins]] involved in catalysing membrane fusion events in cells. There are two types of SNARE protein, [[V-SNARE|v-SNARE]] and [[T-SNARE|t-SNARE]]. The v-SNARE is attatched to the membrane of the vesicle to be released. The t-SNARE is integrated into the target [[Organelles|organelles]] [[Membrane|membrane]]. The v-SNARE's have complimentary shaped t-SNAREs which they bind to.
