Debris from Total Hip Replacement or Hip Resurfacing Procedures. After total hip replacement or hip resurfacing, particle debris from the cup, ball or ball covering can lead to complications and implant failure. As the implant recipient moves, the surfaces of the components rub against each other. The friction and abrasive wear between the components produces debris.
Reverse transcriptase is the viral enzyme responsible for making a DNA copy of the RNA genome from a retrovirus. As such, it is technically known as an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase. This is opposite to the usual flow of genetic information from DNA to RNA to protein.
Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR), also known as ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase, is an enzyme that catalyzes the formation of deoxyribonucleotides from ribonucleotides.urthermore RNR plays a critical role in regulating the total rate of DNA synthesis so that DNA to cell mass is maintained at a constant ratio during cell division and DNA repair. A somewhat unusual feature of the RNR enzyme is that it catalyzes a reaction that proceeds via a free radical mechanism of action.
