A particular protein has the following amino acid sequence within its primary structure (N . . . Ala-Pro-His-Trp-Arg-Lys-Gly-Val

-Thr . . . C). A geneticist studying mutations affecting this protein discovered that several of the mutants produced shortened protein molecules that terminated within this region. In one of them, the His became the terminal amino acid. What DNA single-base change(s) would cause the protein to terminate at the His residue? What other potential sites do you see in the DNA sequence encoding this protein where mutation of a single base pair would cause premature termination of translation

Answer:

When last G changes to A in tryptophan,it becomes stop codon. Lys,Arg and Gly can be potential sites for termınation.

Explanation:

If his is terminal aminoacid, Trp becomes stop codon. Trp= UGG UGA= stop codon. If last G changes to A, it will become stop codon. Lysine(AAA,AAG) and arginine(CGA,AGA) can be stop codon by changing first base pair from A/C to U. Glycine(GGA) can be stop codon by changing first base G to U. Stop codons are UGA,UAA,UAG.

Select all statements that correctly describe hemoglobin and myoglobin structure. a.The heme prosthetic group is entirely buried
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

B, G , E, F.

Explanation:

Hemoglobin is known to be a tetrameric hemeprotein, which is found in the erythrocytes where it binds with oxygen,and then the bound oxygen is transported to parts of the body.

Myoglobin is a monomeric protein that is found in the muscle tissue. Its function is that, it serves as intracellular storage site for oxygen.

It should be understood that, both hemoglobin and myoglobin are hemeproteins with physiological importance of having the ability of binding molecular oxygen.

In this case, it is also known that, the two, that is hemoglobin and myoglobin have a prosthetic group called heme, which is described or known to be a tightly bond, specifically a non-polypeptide unit which is required for biological function of some protein.

2. As a result of your initial efforts you were able to detect the presence of protein K using IgG. However, when your lab mate
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Protein K is a protein that can available in the human cell nucleus that binds to pre-messenger RNA as a part of heterogenous ribonucleoprotein. IgG is one of the five isotypes of immunoglobulin or antibodies.it is the most common antibodies in the blood circulation and makes the 75% of total antibody.

When you heat solution, generally protein k activity increase with an increase in the heat but up to an extent or point called optimum temp. The optimal temperature for activity ranges between 50-65°c. When an increase in temperature help with protein unfolding easing the ability for protein k to break down those proteins.
