Question

What is a protein?

9. How is a protein like a tiny machine?

10. What is the role of the receptor protein in the example given in the video?

11. Where does the RNA molecule go once it leaves the nucleus of the cell? What is the RNA molecule carrying?

Answer 1

Is this some kind of exam?

Answer 2

Or test?

Answer 3

nope

Answer 4

im just researching for a project

Answer 5

Right. Well if you are going to use any of the information I give you now, I suggest you rewrite it to your own words, that also mean you understand it.

A protein is collection of amino acids, bound by peptide bonds, but forming a specific tertiary structure by the intermolecular forces between the amino acid residues. The functions of proteins can be many, but the proteins function, is derived from it's structure.

9) A protein can be said to take "machine-like" function as they are very specific, they only work with exactly what they are designed to work with. Consider enzymes and there specific for metabolism.

10) I haven't seen the movie, so that you gotta do your self.

11) One option is that it can go to the ribosomes for translation. Another option is that it can float is catalytic RNA or generally as miRNA. "What is the RNA molecule carrying?" is suggestion the popular comparison as DNA as a book, that can be transcribed into a copy where the information is, severing as template for the translation.

Answer 6

thanks:)

Answer 7

and the movie doesn't work thats the reason i decided to research instead

Answer 8

No problem. And just because I can; here are two difference presentations of the same protein called Top7.

Answer 9

two different*

Answer 10

thanks:)))
