Vaccination and immunisation are two different processes. Vaccination only refers to the administration of a vaccine or toxoid, while immunisation is the process by which the body produces antibodies against the vaccine preventable diseases through administration of speÂ­cific vaccines. These are used to protect us and our domestic animals against viral and bacterial diseases.
convertase in Medicine. convertase conÂ·verÂ·tase (kÅn'vÉr-tÄs', kÉn-vÃ»r'-) n. An enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of a substance, such as complement, to its active state.
RNA polymerase is an enzyme that produces RNA and catalyzes the initiation and elongation of RNA chains from a DNA template. RNA is created using a process known as transcription. The RNA polymerase is a key component to this process. The reaction that this enzyme catalyzes for is: (RNA)n + Ribonucleoside Triphosphate ->/<- (RNA)n+1 +PPi. RNA polymerases are relatively large. The size of RNA polymerase in a typical eukaryotic cell is roughly 500kDa.
