A piece of DNA that codes for a particular protein is called a gene.
What else can I help you with?
A change in just one DNA base for the gene that codes for the protein?
A change in just one DNA base for the gene that codes for a protein is called a point mutation. Point mutations can result in different types of changes, such as a substitution, insertion, or deletion of a single nucleotide. These mutations can alter the amino acid sequence of the protein and potentially affect its function.
What is the section of DNA that controls the making of specific proteins?
It is a gene.Strictly, a gene holds the information that the cell needs to assemble a polypeptide, which is a chain of amino acids.A protein may have only one polypeptide, but some have more, in which case the instructions in more than one gene are used to make the entire protein.
What is the central dogma biology?
DNA -> RNA -> protein. That simple!
What is the relationship between proteins and nucleic acids?
Nucleic acid RESIDUES are what make up DNA. DNA codes for RNA, RNA codes for protein. Protein (or some specific ones, at least), is then required to form new DNA. DNA-->RNA-->Protein ^____________| One large circular loop
What is the relationship between DNA genes and proteins?
A gene is a segment of DNA sequence which can fold in any orientation and hence will code for a particular protein. DNA molecule is a double helix structure formed by complementary base pairing of nucleotides. Proteins are formed by particular t-RNA and are synthesized in ribosomes. Proteins are required for various metabolic activities occurring in the body. A simpler way to say the same thing is: A gene is a section of a DNA molecule that contains the information to code for one specific protein.
What name do scientsits give to a length of DNA that codes for one protein?
photon
What name do scientists give to a length of DNA that codes for one protein?
gene
What is the sequence of DNA on a chromosome called?
A small section that codes for one amino acid is called a codon. A section that codes for proteins is called a gene.
How does DNA control the order amino acids are put together to form a protein?
The triplet decides where one amino acid is to be put into the Protein. In other works, it ' it codes ' for an amino acid.

Know that one purpose of dna is protein synthesis making protiens?
Yes, one practical purpose of DNA is protein synthesis

What is the role of DNA in protein synthesis's?
When DNA strands are separated by the enzyme helicase, one of the two strands become the template i.e. free nucleotides from the cytoplasm forming the mRNA runs along this strand and reads the triplet codes by complementary base pairing. The resulting triplet codons of the mRNA, then goes to determine the anticodons and hence amino acid sequencing. Therefore the DNA is responsible for imparting the information for the amino acids to be formed and their sequence, and hence the type of protein.DNA, is a genetic material present inside the nucleus which has the information that helps in the synthesis of RNA and proteins. They have information which help in the formation of mRNA that specifies a particular protein product. mRNA acts as a template translating DNA code into specific protein. Thus DNA indirectly participates in protein synthesis by taking place in the RNA synthesisA section of DNA that codes for a given protein is copied (transcripted) onto a mRNA molecule which travels out to a ribosome where translation occurs.
What structure determines what type of protein will be produced?
If I read your question correctly the answer is DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid. The reason being that the arrangement of bases in the DNA code for the amino acids that make up the proteins. A section of DNA starting with a "start code" of bases can be read in sets of three. Each set of three bases (e.g. TGG or ATG or ACT) codes individually for an amino acid, much like a recipe. The DNA read from one end to the other is a list of bases that, when connected up, form a protein or proteins.
Where could one view an animation of protein synthesis?
One can view an animation of protein synthesis on the Higher Ed section of the McGraw Hill website. Versions can also be found on the DNA Learning Center and Learners TV websites.
