What proteins in mammals show only primary and secondary structures?

Most proteins in mammals have tertiary and quaternary structures in addition to primary and secondary structures. However, some small proteins or peptides, such as certain antimicrobial peptides, may exist in nature with only primary and secondary structures, lacking the more complex tertiary and quaternary arrangements.


How could you show that proteins are not used in respiration?

To demonstrate that proteins are not used in respiration, you could conduct an experiment using labeled substrates. By providing a source of glucose (a carbohydrate) labeled with a radioactive isotope and monitoring the production of carbon dioxide and ATP, you could show that respiration primarily relies on glucose metabolism. Additionally, analyzing the metabolic pathways involved in cellular respiration reveals that carbohydrates and fats are the main substrates, while proteins are generally used for other functions such as building and repairing tissues.


Which of these proteins in mammals show only primary and secondary structures?

Collagen and keratin are examples of proteins in mammals that primarily exhibit only primary and secondary structures. Collagen is known for its triple helix structure, while keratin is a fibrous protein that forms alpha-helices and beta-sheets.


What is kmef proteins?

abbr. for keratin-myosin-epidermin-fibrinogen group; a group of proteins that have in common an α-type X-ray diffraction pattern. Some of these may show a β-type pattern in some conditions. Silk fibroin, which normally occurs with a β structure, is often included in the KMEF group.
