c) Jean-François is studying a specific protein in a research laboratory. he observed that this protein seems to function as a receptor protein on the surface of cells that recognizes a specific hormone involved in cell-cell communication. Jean-François prepares his final experiment, but makes a mistake in calculating how much HCl add to one of his solutions to get the correct pH. He performs the experiment, and much to his surprise, he observes that his protein no longer seems to be recognizing the hormone anymore he had observed in previous experiments. Propose a hypothesis that briefly explains (2-3 sentences) why the results of Jean-François' experiment have changed. ikety alosst wants study the cells fro apent on the imour cell suo falla enan into indiidual.colls e must fin Becaose of to pote the on the me d) True or false: A mutation could cause the same change in Jean-François' experimental as the change in pH described in part c) did.

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.
