What else can I help you with?
Is tubulin a motor protein?
No, tubulin is not a motor protein. It is a structural protein that helps form microtubules, which are important for cell structure and transport. Motor proteins, on the other hand, are responsible for moving cellular components along microtubules.
What is a transport protein and what is it most analogous to?
I can only answer PART of the question.A transport protein is one of the proteins important in transporting materials such as hormones from their site of origin to the site of cellular action and metabolism.the answer of the other part is,they are analogous to enzymes, they act like enzymes.
Does facilitated diffusion require a transport protein for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane?
Yes, facilitated diffusion does require a transport protein for the movement of molecules across the cell membrane.
What does a channel protein do in the context of cellular transport?
A channel protein helps facilitate the passage of specific molecules or ions across a cell membrane, allowing for efficient and selective transport in and out of the cell.
What shape of a protein molecule resembles?
Protein molecules can have various shapes, such as globular, fibrous, or membrane-bound. The shape of a protein is important for its function, with globular proteins often being enzymes or transport molecules, and fibrous proteins providing structural support. Additionally, the shape of a protein is determined by its specific sequence of amino acids.
Which protein is the most important physiologically in the transport of carbon dioxide by blood?
Sincerely, carbonic anhydrase enzyme. Followed by hemoglobin
What helps to build muscles and transport oxygen and carbon dioxide and form hormones and antibodies?
protein
Did NaCl require a transport protein?
Did NaCl require a transport protein for diffusion?
Can RBC synthesize protein?
Red blood cells do not have a nucleus and lack the machinery for protein synthesis, so they cannot produce proteins. Their main function is to transport oxygen and carbon dioxide in the body.
Differences between primary and secondary active transport?
In primary active transport, the transport protein gets phosphorylated; in secondary active transport, the transport protein is not phosphorylated
Why is iron needed in the blood?
The iron atom is an essential component of the heme prosthetic group in the protein hemoglobin, which is responsible for the transport of carbon dioxide and oxygen.
What transport oxygen and carry away carbon dioxide?
concave disks
What do protins do for your body?
Protein is an important part of the human body. It helps to build muscles, bones and other body parts. Protein can increase immunity and transport nutrients.
What is a transport protein?
It's either a passive or active transport.
Through what type of proteins does active transport occur?
Active transport occurs through carrier proteins that pump molecules against their concentration gradient using energy from ATP. These carrier proteins undergo conformational changes to transport molecules across the cell membrane.
What is it called when transport protein binds with the needed molecule?
passive transport
What do you mean by transport protein in a cell?
a protein is too big to enter a cell on its own, therefore it requires carriers in order to do so. the carriers transport the protein in/out of the cell.
