Is the genetic code read like a book?
No not at all its more of a chart than a book. They give you the four essential letters in the middle than depending on the protein that is give you start from the first letter of that protien and you do that until you the end. So your basiccally following the letters of the protein around the chart.
How are telomeres important for preserving eukaryotic genes?
Telomeres solve the end replication problem by extending the 3' end of the chromosome. Without them, the 3' end can't be replicated since replication is 5' to 3'.
What is the difference between activity diagram and sequence diagram?
Activity diagram shows the work flow from start point to the end point detailing many decision points. Sequence shows detail flow of specific use case and it also shows interaction between actors, system and system components
Why is requirement specification needed for software project?
In Requirement specification we specify the the requirements of the software project. It is important because if requirements are not properly specified the end product will not satisfy customer's requirement.
What are some important considerations when designing a wind turbine for your home?
Whether the area that you live in is windy enough to build one. Otherwise you would end up building one to find out that its useless because there is no wind in your area. Basically check that your area has wind potential. Cost is another important factor.
What does trypsin subsrate?
Improve Proteins are chains of amino acids, and these chains have an Nitrogen-terminus and a Carbon-terminus. The Nitrogen-terminus is the end of the protein that has a nitrogen, which is available for bonding with a free carbon of another amino acid. The carbon-terminus is the end of the protein that has a carbon which is available to bond with a free nitrogen of another amino acid.
What does terminus mean?
Terminus means end.
What is the substrates and product of trypsin?
Proteins are chains of amino acids, and these chains have an Nitrogen-terminus and a Carbon-terminus. The Nitrogen-terminus is the end of the protein that has a nitrogen, which is available for bonding with a free carbon of another amino acid. The carbon-terminus is the end of the protein that has a carbon which is available to bond with a free nitrogen of another amino acid. Trypsin can cleave a bond between argininel and another amino acid or lysine and another amino acid. The reason why the N-terminus and C-terminus is important is because enzymes either N-terminus specific or C-terminus specific. Trypsin, for example will cleave bonds between arginin or lysine and the amino acid it is bonded closes to the C-terminus side (see below). (N-terminus) Alanine--Lysine--Glycine (C-terminus) ----> Alanine--Lysine + Glycine In this example trypsin hydrolyzed the bond between lysine and glycine, which was the bond on the C-terminus end. It would not effect the bond with alanine because it is on the N-terminus side.
What is a C terminal and N terminal in the protein?
Proteins are composed of amino acids, which are composed of a central Carbon atom surrounded by (bonded to) four groups; an amine, a carboxyl group, an R group (also known as a side chain), and a Hydrogen atom. When amino acids link together via peptide bonding to from polypeptides/proteins (A protein is a polypeptide), the amine group of one amino acid interacts with the carboxyl group of another. Therefore, you end up with an amine group on one end of the protein and a carboxyl group on the other. They call the end with the amine on it the "N terminus" because the chemical formula for amine is NH2 while the end with the carboxyl group on it is named the "C terminal" because the chemical formula of a carboxyl is CH2. The N terminus is the end that amino acids are added onto when mRNA is translated in protein synthesis. Therefore, we write that proteins are created N terminus to C terminus.
What are some English words for terminus?

nex est non terminus.=death is not the end
What is the plural of end?
The plural of the noun "end" (conclusion, purpose, terminus point) is ends.
What do you call an end of a railway line?
Railhead This can also be known as a Terminus.
How is End of the road translated from English to latin?
Finis viae; terminus viae.
What do trans-membrane proteins do?
I trans membrane protein is located in the plasma membrane. It can be found in organelles such as the endoplasmic reticulum or on the phospholipd bilayer surrounding cells. Each end of the protein (the C-terminus (COOH) or N-terminus (NH2)) is located on opposite sides of the membrane. For example if located in the membrane of the ER, one one end of the protein would be in the ER lumen and the other in the cells cytoplasm. The proteins are 'anchored' into the membrane by hydrophobic regions which are easily accommodated in the hydrophobic membrane.
