What programs the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide?
The amino acid sequence of a polypeptide is determined by the sequence of its parent DNA. RNA is transcribed directly from DNA.
How did scientist find that human genes that make insulin?
Scientists used the amino acid code to find the DNA base sequence,i.e. they worked backwards from mRNA to DNA.They figured out the DNA sequence from the amino acid sequence- APEXthey figured out the dna sequence from the amino acid sequence
Which best describes how scientists the human gene that makes insulin?
They figured out the DNA sequence from the amino acid sequence
What are the structural and functional characteristics of a protein determined by?
amino acid sequence
Describe How is the proteins structure is determined by the arrangement of amino acids?
Sometimes the structure and function of a protein can be determined by the amino acids that compose it. Advanced software can hypothesize how a protein will fold according to its amino acid sequence and its function can often be inferred from that.
What determines the amino acid sequence in a protein?
The sequence of amino acids in a protein is determined by the sequence of nucleotides in the mRNA, and this is determined by the sequence of nucleotide bases in the DNA.

What would be the effects of adding the sequence KDEL to insulin?
KDEL an amino acid sequence which signals that a protein belongs in the endoplasmic reticulum. Attaching it to insulin would cause the insulin to be retained within the endoplasmic reticulum.
A polypeptide can best be described as?
Short sequence of amino acids. Insulin is a polypeptide of about 53 [amino-acid] residues; it is like Pluto - is it a protein or not?
What method did Frederick Sanger use to elucidate the structure of insulin?
analysis of amino acid sequence of small fragments
