A variety of proteins exist for two reasons primarily. The human genome contains 20,000 - 30,000 protein encoding genes, each of which directly encode a protein. In addition, each of these protein products may be modified and/or spliced to generate many novel additional protein product combinations.

Why do many different type of proteins exist?

there are 20 types of amino acids and a protein might be up to say 1000 amino acids long, that gives 201000 different possible protein combinations of that length. Far more than the number of subatomic particles in the entire universe. You also have to consider that proteins come in different lengths.


How many possible isomers could exist for diacetylferrocene?

Diacetylferrocene can have three possible isomers: symmetrical cis-diacetylferrocene, symmetrical trans-diacetylferrocene, and unsymmetrical diacetylferrocene.


Although there are a limited number of amino acids many different types of proteins exist because the?

different sequences and combinations of amino acids allow for a vast array of possible protein structures and functions. Additionally, post-translational modifications can further increase the diversity of proteins. The specific sequence and arrangement of amino acids determine a protein's shape, which in turn influences its function.
