Which metrics is used for tracking change in requirments?

The metric used for tracking change in requirements is called the Requirements Change Index, sometimes called the Requirements Stability Index.


How a change in the sequence of nucleotides in a strand of DNA might cause a protein to malfunction?

The sequence of nucleotides is altered and therefore, the amino acid that is to be added to the peptide chain will be altered. hence the protein will be different. This protein can be functionless (will be degraded). If it turns out to be toxic, then there may be symptoms.


What is a change in the normal confirmation of a protein that often results in loss of protein function called?

That protein is called denatured.


What is the Folding of proteins?

Protein folding determines the shape of the protein, and thus what it does, because it is the shape of the protein which enables it to perform its function. For example, enzymes need to have exactly the right shape to fit with the molecules they are working with to catalyze them. Also, hemoglobin is specifically folded with four pocket like areas to allow oxygen to attach to it. The shape of the protein is specific to the function that it is performing, and is different for each protein. If there is even a slight change in the make up of the protein, or a mutation (the amino acids are messed up) then the protein will fold differently. Even a slight change in the composition of the protein can disable the protein from properly performing the function which it is meant to do.


When and what time do you change all of the clocks in the world?

Different countries change their clocks at different times. In some places even within a country. Some countries change the date or day according to local requirements. Then there are countries that do not change their clock time. If you wish to know when a particular country or region makes the alteration then you will need to specify where and what year.

What are the protein requirements for a beef cow?

Protein requirements change from cow to cow, what level of growth or production that they are at. Protein is available to cattle through feedstuffs and the microorganism that grow in the rumen. Protein levels are not the same for each cow, please see the below link for further information.


What are the colors on albustix strips?

Albustix strips typically change colors from yellow to green to blue in the presence of protein in urine. This color change corresponds to different levels of protein concentration in the urine sample.

Why do hygiene requirements change as you get older?

Your hormones and the chemicals that your body produces naturally, change with age. This causes your needs for different nutrients to differ with age


Why must protein synthesis be accurate?

Because each amino acid put into the growing polypeptide chain that will become a protein has an R group with different binding characteristics that can change the shape of the protein, thus the action of the protein, if not accurately placed for that particular protein in it's tertiary form.

What would happen to a protein if the gene was changed DNA?

Change the DNA code & you change the protein.


What type of mutation is the most significant effect on protein synthesis?

Mutations change the order in which the organic bases are in your DNA. These bases code for proteins, and if they change, so the code changes. A change in the code can mean a different protein is made or that proteins are not made at all. The way it could stop proteins from being made is that the change could create a Stop Codon, which stops mRNA from being translated (which would then be transcribed into proteins). If it forms a Start Codon, then the wrong section of DNA could be translated and the wrong proteins be synthesised. There is not always a change in to proteins synthesised, as for each amino acid in a protein there is more than one code. A mutation could change the code for a protein into a different code, but for the same protein. In such a case there would be no change.


What denatured proteins?

Protein molecules change shape when you heat them. Then energy from cooking breaks some of the chemical bonds in the protein and this allows the molecule to take a different shape. This gives the food a more edible texture. The change is irreversible. It is called denaturing.


Changing one amino acid with a protein could change what about the protein?

It will depend on how different the amino acid is to the one it replaced. If the structure and/or charge is quite different, a change of one amino acid can change the entire 3D structure of the protein. This will affect the proteins function.


How do mutations affect translations?

A frameshift mutation may cause a change in the codon sequence, specifically the 3-base sequence which is responsible for coding a specific amino acid. A different protein, a non-functional one, or no protein at all may be the result of this change.
