It has lost its active 3D structure and therefore it is not functional anymore.

What is the bacteriophage used by hershy and chase consisted of two types of molecules?

Hershey and Chase's experiment used bacteriophage T2, which consists of protein and DNA molecules. They were able to show that only the DNA component of the bacteriophage was responsible for carrying genetic information into the host bacterial cell during infection.


Do protein molecules store DNA?

Im not sure. Sorry.


How is a denatured protein different from a normal protein?

First of all, a protein consists of chains of amino acids and a single amino acid is coded by one codon of DNA. Mutations are able to insert, delete, replace and shift codons, which can result in amino acids being changed, removed or added, which would affect the protein that the amino acids are building.For example;Here is a strand of DNA in which the three codons in the middle codes for the amino acids.....TGG ATT ATG GAG TTC....-----> Isoleucine, Methionine, Glutamic acidSay that the strand of DNA has it's reading frame mutated (shifted).....GGA TTA TGG AGT TC....-----> Leucine, Tryptophan, SerineNotice how completely different amino acids arose from the mutation. Such a change may effect the protein's characteristics, as well as the phenotype of the organism.


What molecules contain instructions for building protein?

DNA (and sometimes RNA).


What type of molecule is a histone?

Protein Molecules. "Dna coild around protein molecules called histones."


What molecules store information needed to manufacture protein?

The chromosome. It is very long single thread of DNA. There are many genes, which signal production of the protein molecules.


Does DNA molecules moves regularly from the nucleus to the cytoplasm?

Yes, DNA molecules do not normally move regularly from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. DNA is primarily housed in the nucleus of a cell where it carries out functions such as storing genetic information and regulating gene expression. RNA molecules produced from DNA can move from the nucleus to the cytoplasm to participate in protein synthesis.


What molecules code for protein synthesis?

DNA molecule is what makes proteins. This is in the body.


Are protein molecules made up of strands of DNA joined together by amino acid sequences?

No, protein molecules are not made up of strands of DNA joined together. DNA contains the genetic information that codes for the synthesis of proteins. Proteins are made up of amino acids joined together in a specific sequence dictated by the instructions encoded in the DNA molecule.


What molecules contain the codons?

Codons are found in mRNA molecules, which are transcribed from DNA molecules during protein synthesis. Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid or a signal for the start or end of protein synthesis.
