Which type of amino acid replacement is least likely to result in the disruption of protein structure and function?

1 answer:

8 0

In order to determine whether the new amino acid being replaced has distinct properties, we must first record which features of the amino acid each location possesses. At physiological pH, the side chains of some amino acids will be negatively charged, others positively charged, and yet others will be neutral.

Methionine and arginine have chemically distinct properties. While arginine is a positively charged amino acid and would presumably be facing the protein outside, methionine is a nonpolar side chain that would likely be hidden inside the protein core. The structure of a protein would likely be altered or disrupted if arginine were substituted for methionine.

Which part of the cell theory do these results most support:

<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2>

$\huge\textbf{Cell Theory}$

the Cell Theory was give by German scientists, Schleiden and T.Shwan in 1839. It stated that,

All organism are composed of one or more cells

The cell is the structural and functional unit of life
It is a de novo structure, that means it COULD arise from non living thing which was incorrect.

It was corrected by the German pathologist Rudolf Virchow in 1855. He made a convincing case, corrected and added the third point of the cell theory. It is,

Cells can arise only by a division of pre-existing cell. It is <u>NOT</u> a de novo structure.

Cell theory brought a great evolution in the field of biology which established the function of organism is the result of activities and interaction of the cell units.

$\huge\textbf{Question:}$

<u>Flask 1</u>: It is observed that there are no micro-organism, this is because the meat is sealed and no micro-organism could enter through it.
<u>Flask 2</u>: It is observed that there are micro-organism present because meat is not sealed but open.
<u>Flask 3</u>: As the S tube is used, the micro-organism are not able to reach the meat because of the curvy path

These observations support the point that<u> cells could arise only by a division of pre-existing alive cells</u> because in Flask 1 when there were no micro-organism present so there was no organisms found so no micro-organism arised, In flask 3 the S tube was used so no micro-organism could reach the meat thus there were no organism there which could divide to reproduce. The flask 2 was open, so the micro organisms reached the meat so they divided which means Cells can only arise by a division of pre-existing cells.
