What else can I help you with?
Enzymes are produced as a direct result of which process?
1)protein synthesis 2)photosynthesis 3)respiration 4)enzymatic hydrolysis
What are the 2 parts to protein synthesis?
the two parts of protein synthesis is transcription and translation. transcription is the formation of messenger RNA from DNA it takes place within the nucleus.translation is the second part of protein synthesis which occurs outside the nucleus on surface of the ribosomes it occurs as one continuous process.
What is happening to the chromosomes at interphase?
Interphase consists of Gap 1, Synthesis, and Gap 2. During Gap 1, cells perform normal functions and undergo additional growth. During Synthesis, the DNA is replicated. Gap 2 is the "housekeeping" stage. The cell ensures all processes are complete for division to begin.
Which 2 processes are necessary to produce a protein?
transcription and translation
Is insulin a steroid hormone?
Insulin is an anabolic hormone as: 1) it promotes glycogen synthesis & inhibits glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in carbohydrates. 2) it promotes lipogenesis & inhibits lipolysis. 3) promotes protein synthesis & inhibits protein degradation
What percent of DNA codes for protein synthesis?
Approximately 1-2% of the human genome codes for protein synthesis. The rest of the DNA is involved in regulating gene expression, controlling cell functions, and having other structural roles.
Why are gtp used in protein synthesis?
I can only guess...some probable reasons maybe : 1. many cellular processes require ATP, hence there are many ATP binding proteins. Also, protein synthesis is a continuous process in the cell with a majority of cell wt being constituted by ribosomes. Hence, 2 different energy sources would mean less competition between enzymes for ATP binding. 2. During nutritional stress, protein synthesis occurs at an enhanced rate. Thus, there may be a functional need to de-couple energy status of the cell (decreased ATP) with protein biosynthesis. Although, I'm not sure if use of GTP is the cause or effect of this phenomenon(!)
Scientific name of methionine?
The scientific name of methionine is L-methionine or (2S)-2-amino-4-(methylsulfanyl)butanoic acid. It is an essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis and various metabolic processes in the body.
What three components are necessary to iniate protein synthesis?
The three components necessary to initiate protein synthesis are messenger RNA (mRNA) which carries the genetic information, transfer RNA (tRNA) which brings amino acids to the ribosome, and ribosomes which are the molecular machines that catalyze the assembly of amino acids into proteins based on the mRNA sequence.
What are the 2 general activities associated with metabolism?
The two general activities associated with metabolism are catabolism and anabolism. Catabolism involves the breakdown of molecules to release energy, often through processes like glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. Anabolism, on the other hand, is the synthesis of complex molecules from simpler ones, requiring energy input for processes such as protein synthesis and DNA replication. Together, these activities enable organisms to maintain their energy balance and support growth and repair.
What are functions of RNA in bacteria?
1) Acts as catalysts for most biochemical reactions 2) Acts as a carrier for amino acids during protein synthesis 3) Acts as a transmitter of genetic information to offspring 4) Acts as a template in protein synthesis.
Which of the following statements are correct with respect to protein synthesis?
1. If the codon AUG does not appear at the 5' end of mRNA, it codes for the amino acid methionine. 2. Many amino acids can be synthesized using one of two different codons. 3.Protein synthesis always starts with an initiation codon.
