A specific protein that recognizes certain molecules bringing them across the membrane?
The protein you are referring to is likely a transporter protein, which is responsible for facilitating the transport of specific molecules across the cell membrane. These transporter proteins bind to their target molecules on one side of the membrane and undergo a conformational change to transport the molecules to the other side. Examples include glucose transporters and ion channels.
How does a protein's shape influence its function?
A protein's shape is crucial for its function because it determines how the protein interacts with other molecules. The specific shape of a protein allows it to bind to certain molecules, enabling it to carry out its specific biological functions. If a protein's shape is altered, it may not be able to perform its intended function effectively.

Where are the protein-synthesizing instructions stores on DNA molecules?
Certain sequences of nucleotides code for the production of specific proteins.
A protein on the cell membrane that recognizes and binds to specific substances is called a?
Enzyme
What smaller molecules make protein molecules?
Smaller molecules called amino acids make protein molecules.
What transmits information into the cell by reacting to certain molecules?
The RECEPTOR protein
What molecules transport amino acids from the cytoplasm and the ribosome for translation?
Transfer RNA (tRNA) molecules are responsible for transporting amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosome for translation. Each tRNA molecule carries a specific amino acid and recognizes the corresponding codon on the mRNA during protein synthesis.
How many types of molecules can a carrier protein transport?
There are nine main types of energy. There are three main types of energy carriers; ATP, NADPH, and NADH. An energy carrier is a incredible molecule that, in itself, sends, receives, and carries.
Haw does antisense technology work?
Antisense technology is based on stopping the production of a protein. In order for a protein to be formed, the mRNA has to be translated (read by the ribosomes). The happens in the cytoplasm. There are stretches of nucleic acid bases called cDNA that are complimentary to specific mRNA sequences. These cDNA molecules can bind to the mRNA molecules and inactivate them. When mRNA is inactivated, it cannot be translated into a protein and a protein will not be formed. Since every protein is made by a certain mRNA, by inactivating the mRNA using cDNA molecules, the production of the protein can be stopped. This process is called mRNA silencing or antisense technology
