Approximately 1-2% of human DNA is directly used to code for proteins. This portion includes genes that are transcribed into messenger RNA (mRNA), which is then translated into proteins. The vast majority of our DNA, often referred to as "non-coding" DNA, has other functions, such as regulating gene expression and maintaining chromosome structure.
What else can I help you with?
What describes pieces of DNA to make protein?
A gene is a segment of DNA that codes for a protein.
Would there be a problem if the dummy strand were used to make a protein?
Yes, if the dummy strand, which is the non-template DNA strand, were used to make a protein, the resulting protein sequence would not correspond to the original DNA template sequence correctly. This would lead to a protein with a different amino acid sequence and potentially non-functional or misfolded protein.
What feature in a cell containthe DNA sequence to make a specific protein?
gene
What is the bacteriophage used by hershy and chase consisted of two types of molecules?
Hershey and Chase's experiment used bacteriophage T2, which consists of protein and DNA molecules. They were able to show that only the DNA component of the bacteriophage was responsible for carrying genetic information into the host bacterial cell during infection.
What strand of DNA contains codes for the amino acids that make up a protein?
The messenger RNA (mRNA) strand contains the codes for the amino acids that make up a protein. During protein synthesis, the mRNA strand is used by ribosomes to read the genetic information and assemble the corresponding amino acids.
How is DNA used to make protean?
DNA is not used to make a protein but RNA is. It is sent to the ribosomes where it tells it how much to make depending on it's order.
DNA is used as a blueprint to make this molecule?
In the process of transcription, DNA is used as a blueprint to make m-RNA which codes for a specific protein.
What describes pieces of DNA to make protein?
A gene is a segment of DNA that codes for a protein.
Would there be a problem if the dummy strand were used to make a protein?
Yes, if the dummy strand, which is the non-template DNA strand, were used to make a protein, the resulting protein sequence would not correspond to the original DNA template sequence correctly. This would lead to a protein with a different amino acid sequence and potentially non-functional or misfolded protein.
Where does information to make a specific protein come from?
The information to make a specific protein comes from DNA. DNA is the material in a personâ??s genes that makes them who they are.
What happens during the second step of making a protein?
A DNA strand is used to make a strand of RNA.
What feature in a cell containthe DNA sequence to make a specific protein?
gene
What is the bacteriophage used by hershy and chase consisted of two types of molecules?
Hershey and Chase's experiment used bacteriophage T2, which consists of protein and DNA molecules. They were able to show that only the DNA component of the bacteriophage was responsible for carrying genetic information into the host bacterial cell during infection.
What do DNA and protein capsids make up?
DNA and protein capsids make up a virus particle. The DNA (or RNA) carries the genetic material of the virus, while the protein capsid provides protection and helps the virus to infect host cells.
How does DNA make protein?
DNA basically contains the information needed to create protein. Each protein is encoded by a gene, which carries specific physical characteristics for each person.
DNA specifies the information to make what type of molecule?
Protein
What strand of DNA contains codes for the amino acids that make up a protein?
The messenger RNA (mRNA) strand contains the codes for the amino acids that make up a protein. During protein synthesis, the mRNA strand is used by ribosomes to read the genetic information and assemble the corresponding amino acids.
