What elements are porteins made of?
Proteins are essentially amino acids and polypeptide bonds formed from a set of 20 amino acids. With that being said, amino acids consist of: A central alpha Carbon atom which has 4 bonds: One hydrogen bond Amino group (two hydrogens attached to a nitrogen) Carboxyl Group (Another Carbon double bonded to oxygen and single bonded to a hydroxide group [Oxygen and Hydrogen]) And an R group. The R group is what makes the amino acids different and function different such as making it non-polar, polar, or electrically charged (acidic or basic).
Why is the mRNA code for amino acids said to be redundant?
The code for creating amino acids is said to be redundant because some codons code for the same amino acid (i.e. there is redundancy because several codons have the same function). For example, the RNA codons AAA and AAG both code for the amino acid Lysine. The codons ACU, ACC, ACA and ACG all code for Threonine.
The genetic code is nearly universal in that?
The genetic code is said to be universal because a codon represents the same amino acids in almost all organisms. There are more than one codon for the same amino acid.
Do cells make proteins on small structures called amino acids?
The right question would be, "Do cells make proteins FROM small structures called amino acids?" The short answer is, yes. If your interested in how look up the Hierarchy of Protein Structures. Specifically: Primary Structure ie. the amino acid sequence Secondary Structure ie repeating folding patterns (which help determine function.) Tertiary Structure ie. many folds and patters create a 3-D shape. For some proteins this is the final structure to a functional protein (such as ribonuclease). Quaternary Structure ie. Most functional proteins are comprised of two or more polypeptides that each adopt a Tertiary Structure (see above) and then assemble with each other. When proteins consist of more than one polypeptide chain, they are said to have Quarternary Structure.
What proteins supply all 9 essential amino acids are called?
This protein is called a completeprotein.Protein is made from amino acids. Humans can synthesize most of the amino acids that we need to make protein, with the exception of nine essential amino acids (histadine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine) that must come from the foods we eat.In 1914, Thomas B. Osborne and Lafayette B. Mendel conducted studies which suggested that rats grew best when fed a combination of plant foods whose amino acid patterns resembled that of animal tissue. The term "complete protein" was coined to describe a protein in which all nine essential amino acids are present in the same proportion that they occur in animals. "Incomplete protein" described the varying amino acid patterns in plants. It's a misleading term, because it suggest that humans (and other animals, one would assume) can't get enough essential amino acids to make protein from plants.Fortunately, the theory that plant proteins are somehow "incomplete" and therefore inadequate has been disproven. All unrefined foods have varying amounts of protein with varying amino acid profiles, including leafy green vegetables, tubers, grains, legumes, and nuts. All the essential and nonessential amino acids are present in any single one of these foods in amounts that meet or exceed your needs, even if you are an endurance athlete or body builder.Whenever you eat, your body stores amino acids, and then withdraws them when it needs them to make protein. It is not necessary to eat any particular food or any particular combination of foods together at one sitting, to make complete protein. Your body puts together amino acids from food to make protein throughout the day.
Amino acids that cannot be made by metabolism are said to be?
Essential

What is the origin of animal?
If you are religious The Bible said that God made animals, but science says that meteors contained amino acids.
What are the end product of protein digestion?
it is said that amino acid is the end product of protein after digestion
How many amino acids do living organisms contain?
Living organisms contain 20 standard amino acids that are used to build proteins. These amino acids have different side chains that give each one unique characteristics and functions in biological processes.
Why is the mRNA code for amino acids said to be redundant?
The code for creating amino acids is said to be redundant because some codons code for the same amino acid (i.e. there is redundancy because several codons have the same function). For example, the RNA codons AAA and AAG both code for the amino acid Lysine. The codons ACU, ACC, ACA and ACG all code for Threonine.
The genetic code is said to be universal because a codon represents the same?
The genetic code is said to be universal because a codon representsthe same amino acid in almost all organisms.
What proteins are found in amino acids?
Proteins, large and complex biomolecules, are made of amino acids. The amino acids react together to form longer chains called polypeptides. The so-called primary structure of a protein is determined by the specific amino acid sequence unique to every protein, whereas its secondary structure depends on how the polypeptide chain is coiled. The tertiary structure of a protein is finally how the protein looks in 3D. And if several polypeptides interact, forming an even bigger structure, then the protein is said to have a quaternary structure. There are essential and non-essential amino acids. The non-essential ones are made in the body, whereas the essential amino acids must be found in the diet.
What is the shortest protein?
I am not completely positive, but from what I can find it is said that the shortest protein peptide sequence consists just 8 amino acids. It is recognized by the anti-peptide antisera.The shortest protein in rice is 5 amino acids. The locus id is LOC_Os06g47230.
Amino acids are monomers used to build what?
A monomer is a small molecule that can easily bind to others. Amino acids are monomers, because they bond together to form proteins, which are polymers. Another example of a monomer is glucose, but it can bind to form polymers like cellulose.
Poteins that lack one or more essential amino acids are said to be of?
in complete proteins =]
The genetic code is nearly universal in that?
The genetic code is said to be universal because a codon represents the same amino acids in almost all organisms. There are more than one codon for the same amino acid.
