What is a protein made up of three separate polypeptides called?
A tripeptide, or tri-polypeptide. Another possibility is "A quaternary structure".
What is the structure of Double stranded DNA molecule in palindromic sequence?
There are AT rich repeats in palindromic sequences that form a cruciform structure of DNA
What are the noninvasive techniques to assess certain aspects of the body structure and function?
palpation, auscultation, and percussion are used to assess certain aspects of body structure and function
What proteins are found in amino acids?
Proteins, large and complex biomolecules, are made of amino acids. The amino acids react together to form longer chains called polypeptides. The so-called primary structure of a protein is determined by the specific amino acid sequence unique to every protein, whereas its secondary structure depends on how the polypeptide chain is coiled. The tertiary structure of a protein is finally how the protein looks in 3D. And if several polypeptides interact, forming an even bigger structure, then the protein is said to have a quaternary structure. There are essential and non-essential amino acids. The non-essential ones are made in the body, whereas the essential amino acids must be found in the diet.
TWO OR MORe proteins that join to form a functional unit is?
Two or more proteins that join to form a functional unit is the quaternary structure of a protein. An example is joining two or more polypeptides together to form a functional unit.
What uses the amino acid sequences of polypeptides to predict a protein's three-dimensional structure?
Bioinformatics
What determines the functional structure of a protein?
A protein's structure is determined by:- the amino acid sequences of its polypeptide chains;- hydrogen bonds between amino acids in polypeptides;- other bonds (e.g. hydrophobic interactions, disulphide bridges) between side chains in the polypeptides; and- the arrangement of polypeptides (in a protein that contains more than one polypeptide)Scientists have mapped the structures of several proteins; however, scientists are still unsure as to how proteins actually form their final structures.The function of a protein is directly related to its structure. For example, a protein that fights a certain bacteria might have a shape that allows it to bind to the bacteria and then destroy it.
When two or more polypeptides combine to form a complex structure is called?
maltase
Are proteins also peptides?
PRoteins are formed as polypeptides from ribosomes. The polypeptide undergoes biophysical and chemical changes to get 2D and further 3D structure. So proteins in general, are polypeptides that are folded with cetrain stable conformation.
What is the difference between the structure of a protein and an amino acid?
think of it like legos. single Lego pieces are like amino acids and they get bonded together to form a longer chain called a polypeptide. polypeptides bind to other polypeptides by hydrogen bonding to each other and form a protein with structure.
What are palindromes in biology?
inverted sequences of DNA which forms a structure called a cruciform

What is the structure of Double stranded DNA molecule in palindromic sequence?
There are AT rich repeats in palindromic sequences that form a cruciform structure of DNA
When two amino acids are chemically joined together the resulting structure is?
A polypeptide, and when several polypeptides are formed they link to form a protein.
What cellular structure assembles amino acids into polypeptides?
Ribosomes. They use the mRNA molecule that was created to code for te protein
How does DNA sequence determine protein function?
DNA sequences do not determine the function of any protein. DNA sequences determine the structure of the protein. That is particular amino acid sequence in protein only.
