Is a gene a distinct region of a long protein molecule?
No. It is a distinct region of a DNA molecule.
What molecules need facilitated diffusion to move across the plasma membrane?
the process through which the molecule move from a higher concentrated to low concentrated is called as Osmosis. the same molecule when move from a high concentration to lower one is called as Reverse Osmosis.
Which type of transport is used to move a molecule from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentrationing?
The process is called active transport, and unlike diffusion it uses energy.
What is the terms refers to a region of a chromosome that has a specifiic function?
The region of chromosome that is generally thought of as the unit of function is the "gene". Genes are composed of both a "coding region"--that sequence that tells the cell's machinery what the protein will be--and a "regulatory" region, which tells the cell when to turn on the coding region to make the protein.
How does EMSA electromobility shift assay measure whether the protein bends DNA?
EMSA does not measure if protein bends to DNA. It does measure what proteins bind to a specific region of DNA (usually a promoter region). You can use a supershift to determine exactly what protein is binding to the specific DNA region.
Is a gene a distinct region of a long protein molecule?
No. It is a distinct region of a DNA molecule.
What is A region of DNA that contains instructions for the amino acid sequence of a particular protein called?
A section of DNA that codes for a protein (or other functional product) is known as a gene.
Which types of molecules are assembled at ribosomes based on the code in the DNA molecule?
Once a molecule of RNA has been synthesized during transcription, RNA molecule migrates to the ribosomes to become the "message" where the "Protein Synthesis" takes place, "reading" the sequence of nucleotides and synthesizing a molecule of protein or peptide. In this process, called "translation" participate the ribosome, tRNA molecules that carry amino acids to the assembly region of the translation complex.
The region of a protein that binds a ligand?
It is called an active site (or region).
Which type of transporters is used to move a molecule from a region of low concentration traction to a region of high concentration?
protein molecules in the cell membrane
What is a molecule called when it has a polar and non polar region?
Detergent (or soap).
Each heme region of a hemoglobin molecule contains an inorganic element called?
iron
Protein strands that attach to the centromere region during M-phase of cell cycle?
During Metaphase the protein strands that attach to the centromere region are called spindle fibres.
What is the molecule that is made up of polar region with two nonpolar fatty acid tails?
phosphilpids
What is the step of protein synthesis that occurs in the nucleus?
The step of protein synthesis that occurs in the nucleus is transcription. Transcription is the process of copying the genetic code from DNA into RNA. The RNA molecule that is produced during transcription is called messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA then travels to the cytoplasm, where it is translated into a protein. In transcription, the DNA double helix opens up at a specific location called the promoter. A protein called RNA polymerase binds to the promoter and begins to move along the DNA strand, unzipping the helix as it goes. RNA polymerase then uses the exposed DNA strand as a template to synthesize a complementary RNA strand. This RNA strand is the mRNA molecule. Once the mRNA molecule is complete, it separates from the DNA and travels to the cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm, the mRNA molecule binds to a ribosome. The ribosome then reads the mRNA molecule and uses the information to assemble a protein molecule. The protein molecule is then released from the ribosome and can go on to perform its function in the cell. Here are the steps of transcription in detail: Initiation: RNA polymerase binds to the promoter region of DNA. Elongation: RNA polymerase moves along the DNA strand, unzipping the helix and synthesizing a complementary RNA strand. Termination: RNA polymerase reaches a termination sequence in the DNA and stops synthesizing RNA. The mRNA molecule that is produced during transcription is a single-stranded molecule that contains the same information as the original DNA strand. However, the mRNA molecule is modified in a few ways. First, the 5' end of the mRNA molecule is capped with a group of nucleotides called a 5' cap. The 5' cap helps to protect the mRNA molecule from degradation and helps it to bind to the ribosome. Second, the 3' end of the mRNA molecule is polyadenylated, which means that it is added to a long chain of adenine nucleotides. The polyadenylation tail helps to stabilize the mRNA molecule and helps it to be transported to the cytoplasm. Transcription is a complex process that is essential for protein synthesis. It is the first step in the process of converting genetic information into a functional protein molecule.
