What is the role of aminopeptidases in protein digestion?
Aminopeptidase convert amino acids.
Can you Describe how the amino acids changes in the protein affect the function of the protein and how this causes disease?
Changes in amino acids can alter the protein's structure, affecting its function by disrupting its binding sites or enzyme activity, leading to disease. For example, in sickle cell anemia, a single amino acid change in hemoglobin causes it to form abnormal-shaped red blood cells, affecting oxygen transport and leading to the disease's symptoms.
What impact could a point mutation do?
A point mutation could have no impact or it could be lethal. It depends on whether the mutation changes the amino acid sequence of a protein, or if it changes the amino acid at a critical location in the protein.
Most genetic disorders results from a mutation that changes the amino acid sequence in a?
Most genetic disorders result from a mutation that changes the amino acid sequence in a protein. This change can lead to altered protein function, which can affect normal cellular processes and result in disease.
A change is the sequence of amino acids is?
A change in the sequence of amino acids in a protein can alter its structure and function, potentially leading to changes in biological activity or stability. This alteration can impact the protein's interactions with other molecules and may result in functional consequences that affect the cell or organism. Slight changes in amino acid sequence can sometimes lead to significant changes in protein structure and function.
Is making protein a function of the cell membrane?
No. It is the ribosomes. The ribosomes take amino acids and convert them into proteins.
What is the relationship between PKU and protein?
PKU is characterized by the inability to convert the amino acid phenylanine into the amino acid tyrosine. If dietary intake persists then symptoms as severe as brain damage could ensue. Amino acids ,like phenylanine and tyrosine, are the building blocks of protein.
How does the body convert glucose from protein into energy?
The body converts glucose from protein into energy through a process called gluconeogenesis. In this process, the liver and kidneys convert amino acids from protein into glucose, which can then be used by the body as a source of energy.
How does a mutation that alters a codon for a specific amino acid to a different codon for the same amino acid affect protein synthesis?
When a mutation changes a codon for a specific amino acid to a different codon for the same amino acid, it usually does not affect protein synthesis. This is because multiple codons can code for the same amino acid, so the change may not alter the final protein product.
The order of amino acids in a protein is called?
The order of amino acids in a protein is called its primary structure. This sequence is crucial for determining the protein's function and three-dimensional structure. Any alterations in the primary structure can lead to changes in the protein's properties and functions.
Is Protein have amino acid?
Yes, protein is polymer of amino acids.
Amino acid have protein?
Yes, protein is polymer of amino acids.
