How many different arrangement of nucleotides are possible in a strand of DNA that is 15 nucleotides long?
it takes 3 nucleotides to code one protein. the set of 3 nucleotides are called "codons". So your 15 nucleotide length chain would be 5 amino acids long
For a sequence of 10 nucleotides, the total possibilities are: 410
Amino acids are bonded together with peptide bonds in protein synthesis at the ribosomes.
Proteins are made by joining together a chain of amino acids. Depending on the order in which these are joined, different proteins are formed.
Proteins are polymers made up of amino acids.
The shape of proteins primarily is determined by the order of amino acids (the building blocks of proteins, all strung together in a single line, can be ten's of thousands long). Interactions between the building blocks causes the proteins to fold and twist on itself (1) and multiple protein molecules can come together to shape bigger molecule complexes (2).
Proteins (also known as polypeptides) are organic compounds made of amino acids arranged in a linear chain and folded into a globular form. The amino acids in a polymer are joined together by the peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino groups of adjacent amino acid residues. The sequence of amino acids in a protein is defined by the sequence of a gene, which is encoded in the genetic code.Protiens are made up of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and sometimes even sulfur.
Amino acids are bonded together with peptide bonds in protein synthesis at the ribosomes.
Yes, a polypeptide is a sequence of amino acids.
Proteins are made by joining together a chain of amino acids. Depending on the order in which these are joined, different proteins are formed.
Proteins are polymers made up of amino acids.
Proteins are made up of smaller units called amino acids which are strung together to form proteins which can be of different sizes and shapes.
exact sequence of amino acids
The shape of proteins primarily is determined by the order of amino acids (the building blocks of proteins, all strung together in a single line, can be ten's of thousands long). Interactions between the building blocks causes the proteins to fold and twist on itself (1) and multiple protein molecules can come together to shape bigger molecule complexes (2).
The sequence of basis on the DNA molecule is what directs the sequence of amino acids in the protein molecule - that's how it all links together! So, the sequence of bases in DNA codes for the sequence of amino acids of a protein.
Amino acid sequence primarily determines a proteins shape, but secondary (alpha helix and beta sheet) and tertiary structures (Hydrogen bonding, other chemical bonding between structures) adds to it.
There are 20 different amino acids in the DNA sequence
No, they code for amino acids (in sequence).
Peptide sequence or amino acid sequence is the order in which amino acid residues, connected by peptide bonds, lie in the chain in peptides and proteins. The sequence is generally reported from the N-terminal end containing free amino group to the C-terminal end containing free carboxyl group. Peptide sequence is often called protein sequence if it represents the primary structure of a protein.
