(b) What determines how the amino acid behaves? Protein Structure Proteins are made of smaller monomers known as amino acids. Dependent on the order of amino acids, the protein can have radically different functions. Amino acids are generally classified by their polar...
of DNA are arranged in the molecule, which determines the type and amount of protein synthesized in the cell. The four bases are arranged in groups of three in a specific order, each group acting as a unit (codon), which specifies a particular amino acid. See alsomessenger RNA,transfer ...
Based on the chemical characteristics of PE, it was concluded that rather the structure formed by the lipids determines the activity of VDE (DDE) than the interaction with the lipid head groups [141]. The head group of MGDG and DGDG is polar but uncharged, while PE and PC contain zwitter...
Synonymous codons translate into chemically identical amino acids. Once considered inconsequential to the formation of the protein product, there is evidence to suggest that codon usage affects co-translational protein folding and the final structure of the expressed protein. Here we develop a method fo...
Our results highlight a mechanism involved in the control of receptor signaling, and thereby provide important insights into the relationship between GPCR oligomerization and downstream signaling.Similar content being viewed by others GRK specificity and Gβγ dependency determines the potential of a GPCR...
How a drug is released from a DDS is a critical issue that determines whether the DDS is designed successfully. We all know that the microenvironment of tumors is quite different from normal tissues, such as its acidic environment, different expression levels of some enzymes, etc. These ...
The increase in the CP concentration could be due to the presence of amino acids from the fungi (secondary metabolites), which could increase the presence of amino acids in the treated substrates. Previous reports indicate that some metabolites were generated during the bioconversion process, and ...
The NUE index determines the ability of a crop to maintain productivity under a limited supply of N, and to minimize losses from surplus N applications. Nitrogen Use Efficiency may be improved by modifying fertilizer or irrigation practices, such as by applying liquid organic fertilizers during peri...
What are the structures and properties of amino acids? What is tRNA charging? What is the enzyme responsible for tRNA charging? (a) What are the bonds between the amino acids? (b) What determines how the amino acid behaves? What are the enzymes invo...
Gymnocypris przewalskii is the only high-land endemic teleost living in Qinghai Lake, the largest saline–alkaline lake in China. Its osmoregulatory physiology remains elusive due to a lack of precise identification of the response proteins. In the prese
