Provide the number of polypeptide chains present and the number of amino acid residues in each chain. for https://www.rcsb.org/structure/6j20 Provide the molecular weight of the protein or protein complex and the total number of atoms. (All of this information can be found in the PDB page.) Create a figure (available in the PDB page) that shows the topology of your protein, i.e. the secondary structures adopted by different regions of the protein (alpha helix, beta strand). Make sure to also provide a figure legend that helps interpret the figure and appropriate figure caption that briefly explains the figure.
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.
Provide the number of polypeptide chains present and
the number of amino acid residues in each chain. for https://www.rcsb.org/structure/6j20 Provide the molecular weight of the protein or
protein complex and the total number of atoms. (All of this information can be found in the PDB
page.) Create a figure (available in the PDB page) that shows the topology of your protein, i.e.
the secondary structures adopted by different regions of the protein (alpha helix, beta strand).
Make sure to also provide a figure legend that helps interpret the figure and appropriate figure
caption that briefly explains the figure.
