What does a group of three nucleotides code for?
DNA nucleotides 'code' for RNA copies of the DNA strand, but the true 'coding' of nucleotides happen in the ribosome where amino acids are matched to the RNA nucleotides. Nucleotides in DNA are only are present to store genetic data. When a particular gene needs to be used or a protein needs to be made, a RNA copy of the DNA will be made, using the slightly different RNA nucleotides (adenine, uracil, cytosine and guanine). This copy then leaves the nucleus and travels to the ribosome, where the RNA nucleotides are used to assemble amino acids into proteins. Each amino acid matches up to a three-nucleotide sequence.
Which scientific explanation below best describes a polymer?
Amino acids and nucleotides are examples of polymers
Building blocks of DNA?
the building block or subunit of DNA and rna is amino acids or it might be nuclic acids( not sure)
What elements make up protien?
They are made od amino-acids. In chemistry, an amino acid is a molecule that contains both amine and carboxyl functional groups. In biochemistry, this term refers to alpha-amino acids with the general formula H2NCHRCOOH, where R is an organic substituent. Alpha-amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.
How many water molecules are released when you join five amino acids?
Three molecules of water are formed when four amino acids join together. This is the result of three amide bonds that underwent condensation reactions.
Molecules of DNA are composed of a long chain are called?
A DNA molecule is composed of long chains of DNA nucleotides.
In what form did DNA exist before the evolution of cellular organisms?
amino acids formed from chemicals. DNA is a molecule, and it is a molecule containing other smaller molecules. DNA ->Nucleotides -> Amino Acids -> Chemicals.
What is the difference between amino acids and nucleotides in terms of their structure and function?
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and have a basic structure consisting of an amino group, a carboxyl group, and a side chain. Nucleotides, on the other hand, are the building blocks of nucleic acids like DNA and RNA, and consist of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule, and a nitrogenous base. Amino acids are involved in protein synthesis and various metabolic processes, while nucleotides are involved in storing and transferring genetic information.
Is amino acids a structure of RNA?
No, amino acids are not a structure of RNA. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, while RNA is a molecule involved in protein synthesis. RNA is made up of nucleotides, not amino acids.
Which nucleotides build proteins?
No, nucleotides ar e the building blocks for nucleic acids such as DNA or RNA. The building blocks for proteins are amino acids.
What molecule do amino acids form?
the guru molecule is formed by amino acids
Is DNA an amino acid that encodes protein sequences?
No, DNA is not an amino acid. DNA is a nucleic acid composed of two chains of nucleotides. The sequence of nucleotides encodes for amino acids (almost every triplet of nucleotides encodes for some amino acid). The amino acids in turn build proteins. Please see the related link for more information.
How much nucleotides for 150 polypeptide?
To calculate the number of nucleotides required to code for a specific polypeptide, you need to know the number of amino acids in the polypeptide. Since each amino acid is coded by a codon made up of three nucleotides, you would need 3 times the number of amino acids to determine the total number of nucleotides required. For a 150 amino acid polypeptide, the number of nucleotides would be 150 (amino acids) * 3 (nucleotides per amino acid) = 450 nucleotides.
What type of molecule is formed of amino acids?
the guru molecule is formed by amino acids
Which structure is not a component of a nucleotide?
Amino acid is not a component of a nucleotide. Nucleotides are made up of a phosphate group, a sugar molecule, and a nitrogenous base. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, not nucleotides.
What molecule links together to form proteins?
Amino acids
How many codons are in 150 amino acids?
There are 150 codons required to code for 150 amino acids in a protein. Each amino acid is coded for by a specific sequence of three nucleotides (a codon) in the mRNA molecule during protein synthesis.
