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.
The addition of amino acids to a growing polypeptide Proteins known as _______?
The central dogma of biology explains the flow of information from genes to protein by two processes. These two processes are transcription and translation. Transcription is the process in which the nucleotide sequences of a gene are transcribed into messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) sequences that code for proteins. Translation is the process of synthesizing a protein from the mRNA.
