What are digested proteins called?
Proteins are obtained from nutrients of food. They starts to digest in stomach by proteases such as pepsin, trypsin in to peptides. These small peptides later digested further to form amino acids after complete digestion.
What does protease do?
Protease is an enzyme that breaks down proteins to amino acids and peptides.
Proteins are polymers of what kind of molecule?
Proteins are polymers of amino acid molecules
How are amino acids polypeptides and proteins related?
In Biology it bis tested that when proteins are broken down amino acids are formed this explains the relationship of proteins and amino acids and for polypeptides there is the theory that all peptides and poly peptides are polymers of amino acids.
What is the primary role of pepsin in digestion?
Pepsin breaks apart proteins to form smaller particles called peptides. Peptides are more easily digestible by the smaller intestine
Do proteins have a lot of peptides?
Yes.
Where are proteins broken down?
Protein broken down to peptides in stomach. Proteases such as pepsin, trypsin catalyze the breaking down of proteins to peptides. enteropeptidases cut down these peptides to amino acids. All the proteins and enzymes are coded in Genomic DNA.
Are polypeptides a carbohydrate?
No. Peptides are strings of amino acids. These proteins (peptides) are folded and coiled into polypeptides.
What has the author R T Coutts written?
R. T. Coutts has written: 'Polysaccharides, peptides and proteins' -- subject(s): Peptides, Proteins, Polysaccharides
What are proteases?
Enzyme that breaks down proteins and peptides
Were in the cell is proteins made?
They are made as peptides on ribosomes. Later they become other proteins incytoplasm
What is the complex molecule made up of aminoacids?
Proteins and peptides
What substrate is for peptidase?
The substrate for peptidase are peptides, which are basically small proteins.
What are digested proteins called?
Proteins are obtained from nutrients of food. They starts to digest in stomach by proteases such as pepsin, trypsin in to peptides. These small peptides later digested further to form amino acids after complete digestion.
What color does biuret reagent turn when peptides are present?
purple for longer peptides (larger proteins) and pink for shorter ones
How does Pancreatic Juice helps the digestion of proteins?
it has protein digesting enzymes called trypsin which breaks proteins into peptides
Are proteins bonded together resulting in simple sugars?
No. Sugars are carbohydrates.
