A protein which has many sulfhydryl (-sh) groups may exhibit disulfide bridges tertiary structure.

<h3>What are disulfide bonds?</h3>

A disulfide bond is a covalent bond between two atoms of two (cysteine side chains). Large polypeptide chains (more than 200 amino acids) fold and form domains.

Some proteins have disulfide bridges, which are inter-chain interconnections or between parts of a chain, formed by the oxidation of cysteine radicals. Intracellular proteins generally lack disulfide bonds, while extracellular proteins often do.

nignag [31]

Answer:

Since there is presence of excess tryptophan, the trp operon will be switched off, since the bacterial need not to synthesize.

Explanation:

Understand the following.

The trp operon is a group of gene that encode biosynthetic enzymes for the amino acid tryptophan.

The transcription gene in the operon is switched off when the tryptophan is in excess but is switched on by the bacterium when the tryptophan is low, so that more tryptophan can be produced.

Brums [2.3K]

A. A mold produces a chemical that kills bacteria without apparently benefiting. - amensalism

B. Aerobic bacteria in the human colon consume oxygen, making it possible for anaerobic species to survive. - commensalism

C. "Flagellates live in the gut of termites, feeding on the wood consumed by the termite and allowing the termite access to nutrition and energy in wood that they could not otherwise digest" - mutualism

D. "A helminth takes up residence in a human digestive tract, consuming nutrients" - parasitism

Explanation:

Amensalism is any relationship between organisms of different species in which one organism is inhibited or destroyed while the other organism remains unaffected.

Two examples of antibiosis amensalism are provided by the bread mold Penicillium and black walnut trees.

Amensalism is the association between organisms of two different species in which one is inhibited or destroyed and the other is unaffected.

Commensalism is a long-term biological interaction in which members of one species gain benefits while those of the other species neither benefit nor are harmed.

Mutualism describes the ecological interaction between two or more species where each species has a net benefit. Mutualism is a common type of ecological interaction.

parasitism is a symbiotic relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or in another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life
