Cellular metabolism is the sum of all chemical changes occurring in living organisms in order to maintain life. This includes the synthesis of new molecules, and the breakdown and removal of others. Cellular metabolism involves complex sequences of controlled biochemical reactions or metabolic pathways, these processes are crucial in the reproduction and growth of all organisms. Likewise, these processes help organisms to maintain their structures … Continue reading Researchers induce artificial metabolism in synthetic DNA.
