Which of the following is NOT true? a. the protein is stabilized by hydrogen bonds b. the two polypeptide are encoded by the same gene c. the protein has quaternary structure d. none of the above e. the protein is a heterodimer
Proteins
We generally tend to think of proteins only from a dietary lens, as a component of what we eat. However, they are among the most important and abundant organic macromolecules in the human body, with diverse structures and functions. Every cell contains thousands and thousands of proteins, each with specific functions. Some help in the formation of cellular membrane or walls, some help the cell to move, others act as messages or signals and flow seamlessly from one cell to another, carrying information.
Protein Expression
The method by which living organisms synthesize proteins and further modify and regulate them is called protein expression. Protein expression plays a significant role in several types of research and is highly utilized in molecular biology, biochemistry, and protein research laboratories.
A protein is made up for two polypeptides that differ in shape. Each polypeptide has one domain. Which of the following is NOT true?
the protein is stabilized by hydrogen bonds
the two polypeptide are encoded by the same gene
the protein has quaternary structure
none of the above
the protein is a heterodimer
The proteins have different levels of structure starting from primary to quaternary structure. The unique 3D folded structure is also responsible for function of the protein. The different levels of structure are supported by different bonds.
