The number and sequence of amino acids


Do genes use amino acids?

No, they code for amino acids (in sequence).


What is the connection between amino acids and protiens?

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. Proteins are formed when amino acids are linked together in a specific sequence through peptide bonds. The sequence of amino acids determines the structure and function of the protein.


Is A polypeptide is a sequence of proteins or amino acids?

A polypeptide is a chain of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. It is not a sequence of proteins, but rather a precursor to protein formation. When a polypeptide chain folds into a specific structure, it becomes a functional protein.


What refers to translating the sequence of nucleic acids to the sequence of amino acids?

Transcription.


How many amino acids are there in the coding sequence for insulin?

The coding sequence for insulin consists of 110 amino acids.


A messenger RNA mRNA is 336 nucleotides long including the start and stop codons the number of amino acids in the protein translated from this mRNA is?

The number of nucleotides in an mRNA is directly related to the number of amino acids in the resulting protein. Since each amino acid is coded for by a sequence of 3 nucleotides (codon), the number of amino acids is determined by dividing the total number of nucleotides (336) by 3. Therefore, a mRNA of 336 nucleotides will translate to a protein with 112 amino acids.


What influences protein shape that determines protein function?

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.


What is the subunit that proteints are made from?

What is the relationship between amino acids and proteins?

Proteins are made up of (long strings of) amino acids.Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. There are around 20 amino acids in total. By joining together they form long chain proteins.
