fold improperly
What is a change in the normal confirmation of a protein that often results in loss of protein function called?
That protein is called denatured.
How does acids denature proteins?
The Acid disrupts the bonds between the amino acids that make up the tertiary structure of the protein. The disruption causes the protein to denature which causes a change in shape of the protein. We have to realize that sometimes this change in shape is good because the struction deterimines the function.
The application of heat or acid to a protein that causes its shape to change is known as?
denaturation.
What is a change in a environment that causes a reaction called?
none
Heat which causes a change in temperature of substanceis called?
Heat which causes a change in temperature of substance is called specific heat.
What is it called when there is a change in the three-dimensional shape of a protein?
It is called "Denaturing" of proteins.
When when a mutation results in no significant change in the production of a of a functional protein?
When a mutation does not change the result of a normal production of a protein is called harmless. This is because it does no harm to the individual.
What change takes place in the cell membrane if a signal molecule causes a transport protein to open?
A permeability change takes place.
If your manipulated variable causes a change what is the change called?
A Dependent Variable!
What enzyme is activated by cAMP?
protein kinase
What is the biological effect of denaturation of proteins?
denaturation causes loss in biological activity of the protein. It does not change the primary structure of the protein but results from rearrangement of secondary and tertiary structures
