Proteins: Proteins are complex biochemical molecules. Organisms consist largely of proteins, which serve numerous functions throughout the body. Proteins are made of a string of amino acids called polypeptides. Answer and Explanation: The machinery use...
Gene Expression II (Translation): How Is Information Transferred from RNA to Proteins?In the previous module, we learned how DNA codons are transcribed into RNA codons in a process known as transcription or RNA synthesis. In this module, we examine how mRNA transcripts from protein-coding genes...
Describe how controlling gene expression will alter the overall protein levels in the cell.Gene Expression:Gene expression is a process through which genes are turned on or off by enzymes and DNA methylation. Genes contain the instructions to make proteins and there are approxima...
A Recipe for Proteins Almost all living creatures come with an instruction manual, its genome, which tells it how to grow, build itself and operate. These instructions are made up of DNA that tell an organism how to make protein molecules. And proteins make us who we are. They determine p...

Paneth cells are specialized epithelial cells located at the base of the small intestinal crypts that produce antimicrobial proteins and lectins. MYD88 signalling by Paneth cells is required for the expression of regenerating islet-derived protein 3γ (REG3γ), REG3β, CRP-ductin and resistin-lik...

[5]. Within each class of compounds, the variations around the basic chemical skeleton essentially concern the degrees of oxidation, hydroxylation, methylation, glycosylation and the possible connections to other molecules (primary metabolites such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, or phenolic secondary...
How did RNA polymerase come into existence? Was it due to a mutation in the genetic code? Describe how the RNA transcript is modified before it can be used to make proteins. Can RNA be amplified by PCR? Explain. How are DNA, RNA, and proteins related in the cel...
Genes or protein are harvested What is a transgenic organism? a. an organism that has genes from another species b. an organism that does not use DNA to specify proteins c. an organism that has had its entire genome sequenced d. an organism with multip...
