Why do eggs make you sleepy?
They contain tyrosine and tryptophan- one makes you alert and the other makes you sleepy
What is a monomer of a hormone?
Hormones vary widely in their structure and make up - therefore it is not appropriate to suggest a monomer of a hormone as there are many many different types.The simplist hormone are derivatives of the amino acids tyrosine and tryptophan such as the catecholamines (e.g. adrenaline and thyroxine) but as these do not link together into chains.
Growth factor hormones such as insulin bind to which type of receptor?
tyrosine kinase receptor!!
Why BSA is used as standard for protein estimation?
the answer is that BSA is most common protein available as it is cheap and alsocontains tyrosine and tryptophan as amino acids which are important for breaking the peptide bonds
What are the names of the 23 amino acids?
the 20 standard amino acids that build up a protein can be classified as 1)Non polar, 2) Uncharged polar and 3)Charged polar. the names are as follows:1) Non-Polar: Glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, methionine, proline, phenylalanie, tryptophan.2) Uncharged polar: Serine, threonine, cytoseine, tyrosine, aspargine, glutamine.3) Charged polar: Aspartate, glutamate, histidine, lysine and arginine.
Which pair of amino acid will have the highest absorbance at 280 nm?
Tyrosine and tryptophan
Substrate of chymotrypsin?
tryptophan tyrosine phenanylalanine
Thyroid hormone is the only major lipophilic hormone that is not synthesized from cholesterol?
Thyroid hormone is actually synthesized from the amino acid tyrosine. It is produced in the thyroid gland by the addition of iodine to tyrosine molecules, and then combined to form the hormones T3 (triiodothyronine) and T4 (thyroxine). These hormones are released into the bloodstream and can act on target cells throughout the body.
What are some protein that starts with t?
Threonine, Tyrosine, Tryptophan.
Are there peptide bonds in Tyrosine?
No. Tyrosine is an amino acid that forms peptide bonds with the others in polypeptide chains.
What is the positive result of pauly's test?
Phenylalanine Tyrosine Tryptophan Histidine
Which amino acid has a ring?
There are three and they are called aromatic amino acids: tryptophan phenylalanine tyrosine. Proline also contains a ring but is not an aromatic compound
Why does protein have an absorbance peak at 280nm?
When a protein in solution is analyzed using UV-visible, a peak at 280 nm is commonly observed. This peak is due to the effect of aromatic rings in the polypeptide chain (from amino acids tryptophan and tyrosine).
Why do eggs make you sleepy?
They contain tyrosine and tryptophan- one makes you alert and the other makes you sleepy
Which amino acids other than tryptophan display fluorescent emission?
Perhaps other amino acids with hydrophobic side chains as tryptophan has. Tyrosine and alanine, among others.
Which amino acid is the thyroid hormones derived?
Tyrosine.
Where is tyrosine found?
Tyrosine is an amino acid that is found all over the body in its polypeptide chains and proteins. It also serves as the precursor for the catecholamine neurotransmitter dopamine in the nervous system.
