A protein is any of a class of nitrogenous organic compounds that consist of large molecules composed of one or more long chains of amino acids and are an essential part of all living organisms, esp. as structural components of body tissues such as muscle, hair, collagen, etc., and as enzymes and antibodies.
What else can I help you with?
Explain the role of chaperone proteins in protein folding?
I don't have a clue, what do you think?
In diabetes insulin is administered intravenously explain why this hormone protein can't be taken orally?
Because it is a protein, it is digested, just like a sirloin steak is.
Can you explain the differences between whey, casein, and plant-based protein?
Absorption is slower than whey protein but still significantly faster than casein
What organelles are involved in the protein making process explain how they contribute?
In eukaryotic cells proteins are made by the ribosomes.
Explain why protein is not normally present in the urine of a healthy person but may be present in the urine of a person with glomerulosclerosis?
Well Basically protein is not be lost and it wont go through a the urine of a healthy person because protein is a good thing. Dont really know how to explain in more detail both this is how i was taught and trust me i got a* in biology
Explain the concept of protein production in a cell (DNA → RNA → protein).?
Transcription: cellular location, steps involved & the enzymes used Translation: cellular location, steps involved & the roles of the various RNA molecules
What is a lipid and protein model that is used to explain the components and properties of the plasma membrane?
fluid-mosiac modelramon C.Fluid mosaic model
When the protein was completely digested no solid material remained in the tube Explain why?
When the protein was completely digested, all of the protein molecules were broken down into their smaller components (amino acids) by the digestive enzymes. Amino acids are soluble in the solution, so there was no solid material left behind in the tube after digestion.
When the genetic material was first being isolated and studied there was a controversy about it being DNA or protein-- those that backed protein as the genetic material almost got it right-- explain?
Scientists thought genetic material was a protein not DNA because there are 20 different amino acids for a building of a protein polymer, while DNA polymers only have 4 nucleotide bases.
Is there any test or scan for any possible protein deficiencies or abnormalities in a normally healthy person?
Yes, ask your GP. Explain what you think you have.
Does transfer RNA perform its function in the nuclear or the cytoplasm explain?
tRNA binds to ribosomes within the cytoplasm where translation and protein synthesis occurs
Explain what determines protein confirmation and why it is important?
Protein confirmation is determined by its primary structure (sequence of amino acids) and interactions between amino acid side chains. This arrangement dictates the folding of the protein into its specific 3D shape, which is crucial for its function. A protein's conformation is important because it influences how the protein interacts with other molecules and ultimately determines its biological activity.
