Why do they boil the proteins in western blot test?

Proteins are boiled to denature the proteins. Proteins are made of polypeptide chains, and are tightly folded into a three-dimensional shape within your cells. For a western blot, the protein must be denatured out of its folded shape so that it is only a long polypeptide chain.


A chain of 67amino acids would be called?

A polypeptide.


Why polypeptide chains are always called as protein but Proteins are not always polypeptide chains?

Peptides (from the Greek πεπτίδια, "small digestibles") are short polymers formed from the linking, in a defined order, of α-amino acids. The link between one amino acid residue and the next is known as an amide bond or a peptide bond. Proteins are polypeptide molecules (or consist of multiple polypeptide subunits). The distinction is that peptides are short and polypeptides/proteins are long.

What level of molecular organization is a beta-folded sheet?

A beta-folded sheet is a secondary structure of a protein, which is the next level of molecular organization above the primary structure. It is formed by hydrogen bonding between adjacent segments of a polypeptide chain, creating a flat and elongated sheet-like structure.


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
