What are the polymers of protein?
The polymers of protein are polypeptide or enzymes.
Define primary structure and describe how it may be deduced in the laboratory?
The primary structure is the formation of the amino acid sequence within a protein. It can be deduced in a laboratory by hydrolyzing the protein into small peptide chains, dehydrolyzing the protein into small peptide chains, determining their amino acid sequences, and then overlapping the sequences of small fragments created with different agents to reconstruct the whole polypeptide.
What determines the primary function of a protein?
The way that a polypeptide folds to form the protein determines the proteins function.
Why protein is called primary structure?
Proteins *have* primary, secondary, tertiary, and quarternary structures. The primary structure is simply the chain of amino acids without any other structure. Secondary structure results from folding of the chain to form rudimentary structures such as alpha helices, beta sheets and turns. Tertiary structure results from the further folding of the protein with secondary structures into different 3D shapes by interactions between different parts of the secondary structure. Quarternary structure results from different proteins with tertiary structures coming together to form a protein complex.
A long chain of amino acids?
polypeptides - The Dude That is Friends with THE DUDE
Is protein larger in size compared to a polypeptide?
A protein is a polypeptide.
What is the correct order smallest to largest protein - amino acid - polypeptide?
Amino acids---->peptide---->polypeptide--->protein.
What are the polymers of a protein?
Polypeptide
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.
Is polypeptide chain a protein?
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.
What kind of macromolecule is polypeptide?
protein
What is a chain of amino acids linked together from end to end called?
The chain of amino acids linked together form Protein. Depending on the type and arrangement of aminoacids, different types of proteins are formed. The blueprint for this formation is provided by the genetic material ot the organism where it is being synthesized.
What chain is sequences of amino acids that is the foundation for the basic structure of a protein?
polypeptide chain
What is a science name for protein?
The other name for protein is hhhjguddf.
When a polypeptide is folded it is called what?
Secondry protein
What are the polymers of protein?
The polymers of protein are polypeptide or enzymes.
Hydrogen bonds between different parts of the polypeptide chain result in which level of protein structure?
Tertiary structure
