Is polypeptide chain a protein?
A polypeptide chain is made up amino acids that form from a peptide bond. The polypeptide chain makes up a protein; therefore, the type of protein is contingent on the number of chains present.
Chains of amino acids make what which can join together to make a what?
A polypeptide. This polypeptide goes through further development (such as adding hydrogen bonds and bending it in a certain way) and becomes a usable protein.
What molecule is built of amino acids?
Polypeptide chains, commonly called proteins
Why is a protein denatured before electrophoresis?
Protein is a polypeptide chain made up of amino acids.Individual polypeptides chains are linked together by hydrogen bonds,hydrophobic interactions and disulphide linkages to form complex protein structure(secondary,tertiory and quatenary) .So in order to separate these poly peptide chains in to individual peptides, protein is treated with chemicals like mercapto ethanol.
What happens to polypeptide chains after translation?
In bacteria, translation occurs in the cell's cytoplasm, where the large and small protein production is addition of one amino acid at a time to the end of a protein.
Antibody molecules consists of how many polypeptide chains depending on which class of antibody is considered?
two
Is antibody a Y-shape protein?
It is a T or Y-shaped monomer of 4 looping linked polypeptide chains
Composed of long chains of amino acids?
Polypeptide bonds....polypeptide bonds equal proteins ;)
What do a bunch of amino acids put together make?
While they are derived from Deoxyribose nucleic acid triplets, the thereby derived amino-acid sequences are used to form proteins.
Is a protein a polypeptide?
A polypeptide chain is made up amino acids that form from a peptide bond. The polypeptide chain makes up a protein; therefore, the type of protein is contingent on the number of chains present.
What do ribosomes make?
Ribosomes synthesize protein.
Is polypeptide chain a protein?

Globular or fibrous polypeptide chains are what type of protein structure?
Tertiary structure.
Building block unit of a polypeptide chain?
Amino acids are the building block units of a polypeptide chain or a protein. These amino acids are linked together through peptide bonds.
Chains of amino acids make what which can join together to make a what?
A polypeptide. This polypeptide goes through further development (such as adding hydrogen bonds and bending it in a certain way) and becomes a usable protein.
Does the hemoglobin molecule has polypeptide chains?
Yes. Hemoglobin consists of four heme groups as well as a globin. Globin is a type of protein - proteins are made of polypeptide chains.
What make up a protein?
Proteins are complex molecules of amino acids.
