Question

which of the following statements is false? a. hemolysins lyses erythrocytes b. leukocidins destroys neutrophils and nk cells c. kinase breaks down fibrin clots d. hyaluronidase breaks down substances between cells e. coagulase forms blood clots

Answer 1

c. Kinase breaks down fibrin clots.

Kinase is not responsible for breaking down fibrin clots. Kinases are enzymes that catalyze the transfer of phosphate groups from ATP to target molecules, typically proteins, as part of cellular signaling processes. The process of breaking down fibrin clots is carried out by enzymes called fibrinolysins or plasmin, not kinases.
