∙ 9y agoProteins are made up of amino acids. There are 20 amino acids which all have slightly different charges. When you link these amino acids through peptide bonds these charges interact with each other to form the shape.

What is the shape of a protein determined by?
the type and sequence of its amino acids
What two factors determine the shape or a protein?
Protein shape is determined by the type and sequence of the amino acids that make it up. The bonds between the amino acids caused the protein chain to bend in specific ways.
How does one protein differ from another protein?
how does one protein differ from another protein?
The function of a cell is determined by its?
structureThe shape of the protein will determine the cell. It will also determine the function of the cell.
Why does unfolding a protein make it able to do its job in a living organism?
If by able you mean UNABLE, that is simple. A protein's function is determined entirely upon its shape. If you change the shape of a protein, for example, unfolding it, you change its function and make it unable to perform its job in a cell.

How is the shape of a protein or enzyme determined?
The most common methods used for the determination of protein structure are X-ray crystallography or NMR spectroscopy.

How is protein utilization determined?
Protein Utilization can be determined by figuring out the dietary protein intake and then measuring nitrogen excretion.
How does a DNA molecule determined the structure of a protein?
The DNA sequence will determine the amino acid sequence known as the protein's primary structure. As the protein is folded into the secondary, tertiary and quatranary structures, the amino acid molecules will determine the shape
Can an enzyme work on different substrates?
No, because an enzyme is a protein. The function of each protein is determined by its shape. The protein is only that protein and can do its job only when it is in its specified shape. Since an enzyme is a protein, it has a specific shape that is made for one particular substrate.
How does DNA determine a protein's shape?
DNA determines a protein's shape by determining the sequence of the amino acids in a protein.
What determines a fluids shape?
A fluids shape is determined by what it is being contained in. For example, the shape pf 500mL of water is determined by the shape of the bottle that it is kept in.
