Interactions between Macromolecules of Different Types and Proteins and Cells in Aqueous MediaIt is known that when synthetic polymers of sufficient molecular mass are added to protein solutions in high concentrations, the proteins may form aggregates or may even crystallize out. This is usually ...
What are the examples of natural polymers? polymer, any of a class of natural or synthetic substances composed of very large molecules, called macromolecules, that are multiples of simpler chemical units called monomers. Polymers make up many of the materials in living organisms, including, for ex...
Membrane proteins are proteins that are embedded in the cell membrane of cells. They have a diverse range of different functions, and depending on the cell type, can constitute over 50% of the total mass of the cell membrane. Answer and Explanation: ...
animal cellPrincipal structures of an animal cellCytoplasm surrounds the cell's specialized structures, or organelles. Ribosomes, the sites of protein synthesis, are found free in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, through which materials are transported throughout the cell. Energy...

In its basic form, an antibody consists of four different polypeptides, or protein macromolecules, comprised of two heavy chains and two light chains. When joined together, these chains form a Y-shaped molecule. There are five different heavy chains identified by the Greek letters: alpha, delta...
What is the general location of the three different types of amino acids in the typical soluble protein? In the typical non-soluble membrane protein?Protein:Proteins are macromolecules build with amino acid blocks. They form the ...
Antibiotics such as polymyxin B and polymyxin E (colistin) bind to phospholipids in the cell membrane of the bacterium and interfere with its function as a selective barrier; this allows essential macromolecules in the cell to leak out, resulting in the death of the cell. Because other cells,...
although some drugs can form strong chemical bonds with their target sites, resulting in long-lasting effects. Three types of target molecules can be distinguished: (1) receptors, (2) macromolecules that have specific cellular functions, such as enzymes, transport molecules, and nucleic acids, and...
