In order to solve the structure of a protein by x-ray crystallography, a biochemist must first find the conditions in which the protein is able to be crystallized. Some proteins have natively unstructured regions ("floppy parts") that make the protein unable to be crystallized. Many times, the protein will be recombinantly expressed without these unstructured regions, and the positions of these residues will not be found. Other times, the positions will not be found because there are too many alternate positions in the crystal and the locations of the residues will not be found in the electron density.
What else can I help you with?
What structure found in the cytoplasm specifies the exact sequence of amino acids of the protein to be made?
Ribosomes are the structures found in the cytoplasm that specify the exact sequence of amino acids for protein synthesis. They read the mRNA transcript and link together the corresponding amino acids in the correct order to form a protein.
What type of building blocks would you use to construct a protein?
Amino acids
What maromolecules consist of long chains of amino acids?
Proteins are the macromolecules that consist of long chains of amino acids. These chains fold into specific three-dimensional structures, which determine the protein's function in biological processes. The sequence of amino acids in a protein is encoded by the genetic material of an organism.
What happens to amino acids once they arrive in a cell?
Once amino acids arrive in a cell, they are utilized for protein synthesis. Ribosomes in the cell read the sequence of messenger RNA (mRNA) to assemble amino acids into specific protein structures according to the genetic code. Each amino acid is incorporated into the growing protein chain until the entire protein is synthesized.
A Protein is a long chain of what?
A protein is a long chain of amino acids. That are linked by dehydration synthesis to form peptide bonds.
What is the connection between amino acids and protein?
Amino acids are the basic structures of protein. Each type of protein depends on the arrangement of the amino acids. One inconsequential change can completely change the type of protein it is.
What influences protein shape that determines protein function?
Amino acid sequence primarily determines a proteins shape, but secondary (alpha helix and beta sheet) and tertiary structures (Hydrogen bonding, other chemical bonding between structures) adds to it.
Subunit of Protein?
Amino acids
What are the amino acids you created in your protein chain?
They are Protein Sub-Unit amino acids.
What structure found in the cytoplasm specifies the exact sequence of amino acids of the protein to be made?
Ribosomes are the structures found in the cytoplasm that specify the exact sequence of amino acids for protein synthesis. They read the mRNA transcript and link together the corresponding amino acids in the correct order to form a protein.
What type of building blocks would you use to construct a protein?
Amino acids
The order of amino acids is a protein's?
The order of amino acids in a protein determines its structure and function.
Why are amino acids call the building blocks of protein?
because protein are formed from amino acids
What would Hydrolysis of a protein produce?
Hydrolysis of a protein would break down the protein into its constituent amino acids. This process involves adding water to the protein molecule, causing the peptide bonds between amino acids to be cleaved, resulting in the release of individual amino acids.
What happens to amino acids once they arrive in a cell?
Once amino acids arrive in a cell, they are utilized for protein synthesis. Ribosomes in the cell read the sequence of messenger RNA (mRNA) to assemble amino acids into specific protein structures according to the genetic code. Each amino acid is incorporated into the growing protein chain until the entire protein is synthesized.
What is a nutrient made up of amino acids?
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins; hence the intake of amino acids will act nutritionally as protein.
A Protein is a long chain of what?
A protein is a long chain of amino acids. That are linked by dehydration synthesis to form peptide bonds.
