Which level of protein structure may be stabilized by covalent bonds?
Primary, tertiary and quaternary levels of protein structure.
Does protein affect creatinine levels?
Does protien affect creatinine level?
What happens to protein structure at low and high pH?
A change in PH can alter the 3D confirmation of the protein cauzing it to lose function partially or completely. **** A change in pH can denature a protein and also can cause it to change shape, therefore making it useless****
The levels of organization of matter on Earth goes from smallest which are the subatomic particles to the largest which is the Biosphere true or false?
TRUE
What is the amino acid homocysteine used for in the body?
Homocysteine is an amino acid which is released as the body digests protein. High levels of this acid can cause health problems such as strokes and blood clots.
Altering which what levels of structural organization could change the function of a protein?
a. primary b. secondary c. tertiary d. quaternary Its e. All of the above, any change to any of the structural levels of organization can change the fuction of the protein
What determines each of the different structural levels of a protein and how the structural levels are different from each other?
the amino acids. they have different steps of a process
What happened to a protein that has become denatured?
A protein is denatured because of high temperatures or changes in pH. When it is denatured, it means that the protein has lost its original shape and therefore, it cannot function properly anymore.
Altering what levels of structural organization could change the function of a protein?
Altering all levels of structural organization can change the function of a protein: Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, Quaternary...
What are the different level of organization?
There are six levels of structural organization. These consists of chemical, cellular, tissue, organ, organ system, and organismal.
What are the levels of structural organization in the body of a shark?
animals such as sharks have diffrent levels of structres organization in their bodies. each cell in a multicellular organism does not perform every life function of the organism.
What does it mean when a protein ''deatured'' and how does this affect the protein's function?
Proteins tend to have 3 or 4 structural levels, every protein has specific level, in which it can function. Denaturation brings protein back to the 1st structural level, so it can no longer function. For example, enzymes have the 4th structural level, then they can function. And when they are denaturated, they are brought back to the 1st level and cannot function.
How many levels of cell organization are there?
There are six levels of organization.
What are the levels of organization in ecology?
The five levels would be on like the organization in ecology.
How many levels of protein are there?
Four levels
What is denaturing enzyme?
enzymes are proteins. when you denature a enzyme you destroy the protein structure/shape. it happens a couple of ways; 1) temperature (they have a 'optimum temperature') at certain temperatures enzymes are denatured 2) Ph, again, they have a 'optimum pH at which they work best, and certain pH levels where they are denatured. 3) Various chemicals..
