What is composed of polysaccharide and polypeptide?
a polysaccharide is the polymer of carbohydrates and a polypeptide is the polymer of a lipid.
Composed of long chains of amino acids?
Polypeptide bonds....polypeptide bonds equal proteins ;)
What substance is composed of amino acids?
Polypeptide, which will turn into an active protein or an enzyme.
Cytoplasm is composed primarily of what?
Its a jelly-like substance
How could a change in a polypeptide affect cell activity?
Enzymes are derived from polypeptide chains, enzymes are responsible for adequate cell activity. Therefore, if a polypeptide chain is not properly composed, the enzyme will be dysfunctional, hence leading to a depletion in cell activity.
What is bacillus megaterium?
Bacillus megaterium synthesizes a capsule composed of both polypeptide and polysaccharide. The polypeptide is located laterally along the axis of the cell and the polysaccharide is located at the poles and at the equator of the cell.
Building block unit of a polypeptide chain?
Amino acids are the building block units of a polypeptide chain or a protein. These amino acids are linked together through peptide bonds.
What is composed of long chain of amino acids?
A long chain of amino acids are called a polypeptide, which goes through a folding process to become a protein.
What bio molecule is enzymes?
All the enzymes are protein or protein conjugates(with lipids or carbohydrates)
What is the componant of many lipids?
All lipids are composed of amino acids which make up polypeptide chains. Animals must have at least a small amount of lipids to survive.
Simple proteins are composed of only what?
Simple proteins are composed of only amino acids. These proteins are also called monomeric proteins because they consist of a single polypeptide chain. The sequence of amino acids determines the structure and function of the protein.
Is protein larger in size compared to a polypeptide?
A protein is a polypeptide.
