Is polypeptide an amino acid?
No, a polypeptide is not an amino acid. A polypeptide is a chain of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are the individual units that make up a polypeptide chain.
A long chain of many amino acids is called a?
Polypeptides are chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
What do you call a chain of 25 amino acids?
a chain of 25 amino acids can be called a peptide chain ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Two or united amino acids form a *dipeptide* Three a *tripeptide* Ten or more a *polypeptide* More than 50 *protine* Therefore a chain of 25 amino acids is a polypeptide :D
What nucleic acid where polypeptide chain is produced?
Polypeptide chains are produced using messenger RNA (mRNA) as a template during the process of protein synthesis. The mRNA carries the code for the sequence of amino acids that make up the polypeptide chain.
The order of the amino acids in a polypeptide chain are determind by the order of nucleotides in the what?
The order of amino acids in a polypeptide chain (protein) is determined by the order of nucleotide triplets in the messenger RNA, or mRNA, chain that was transcribed from the DNA inside the nucleus for that specific protein.
Is polypeptide chain a carbohydrate protein or lipid?
A polypeptide chain is a chain of amino acids, which make up proteins
What chain is sequences of amino acids that is the foundation for the basic structure of a protein?
polypeptide chain
Is Oligopeptide a carbohydrate protein or lipid?
It is a short chain of amino acids. Theoretically, a protein is a much longer chain of amino acids that can be composed of more than one polypeptide chain.
Is polypeptide chain a lipid carbohydrate protein or nucleic acid?
Neither, a carbohydrate is a sugar, proteins are amino acids, lipids are fats! Nucleotides are what make DNA and RNA! They are considered a monomer
What is another name for a protein chain?
the answer would be.... polypeptide
What chain is a sequence of amino acids that is the foundation for the basic structure of a protein?
A polypeptide chain is a sequence of amino acids that forms the primary structure of a protein. This chain is held together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids.
Is polypeptide an amino acid?
No, a polypeptide is not an amino acid. A polypeptide is a chain of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and are the individual units that make up a polypeptide chain.
What is the name given to the protein molecule when is consists of a basic polypeptide chain?
The protein molecule is called a polypeptide when it consists of a basic chain of amino acids. A polypeptide chain folds into a specific 3D structure to become a functional protein.
A long chain of many amino acids is called a?
Polypeptides are chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds.
What is A membrane protein with a carbohydrate chain?
A membrane protein with a carbohydrate chain is called glycoprotein
What would biochemists call the result of chaining many of the molecules together?
This is called polymerization. If the "molecules" being chained together are amino acids, then Des Dichado is correct, and it is a polypeptide. If the molecules are sugars (monosaccharides), then it is a carbohydrate. If the molecules are fatty acids, then it is a lipid.
Is a protein a polypeptide?
A polypeptide chain is made up amino acids that form from a peptide bond. The polypeptide chain makes up a protein; therefore, the type of protein is contingent on the number of chains present.
