Choose all true statements about the difference between translation at free ribosomes versus bound ribosomes. - Free ribosomes are made in cytoplasm, whereas bound ribosomes are made in the nucleus. - Free ribosomes produce proteins in the cytosol, whereas bound ribosomes produce proteins inside the nucleus. - Bound ribosomes produce proteins that are exported from the cell, whereas free ribosomes make proteins for the nucleus.
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.
