<span>amylase is an example of an enzyme</span>

In biochemical reactions, it is mostly triggered by enzymes. Enzymes are important components in the process that involves metabolism and digestive functions, further, most of these enzymes are proteins.Proteins are biological macromolecule and mostly composed of enzymes. Proteins play a role in the physical make-up of a cell or acts as a cytoskeleton –maintains cell shape and figure. These proteins plays different roles and works with nucleic acids and other macromolecules in the cells including cell cycle, cell adhesion, immune response and cell indicators.

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

87.5% of the trimers in the cell will be inactive.

Explanation:

A monomer is a single subunit. Look at an easy comparison. If a monomer is a ball. For the protein to be functional, it needs to be a trimer .A trimer = 3 monomers joined / bound together with bonds. Therefore, if a monomer is a ball, we need 3 balls, we attach it together and that is the primer . if one ball becomes missing, that protein won't work .

In chemistry, a trimer is regarded as three molecules or ions of the same substance (that is, same type) which are associated together .

Double negative : Each gene has 2 alleles. So, for a positive protein, both allele needs to be same, let's say + means on. So for a x protein , if it's x+/x+ it means the protein is homozygous and active. If for some mutation, it's x+/x- , it's a heterozygous protein. Double negative means when it is x-/x- and this means the protein has lost is function . It's not functional at all.

The heterozygous cell will form one or more subunits has the mutant structure when the gene is expressed. From the question if there is a mutation in dominant negative allele, it will cause the inactivation of one trimer resulting in 87.5% inactive trimers for a heterozygous individual.

There are 87.5 % percent of the trimers present in the cell which will be inactive for a heterozygous individual, If at least one of the subunits has the mutant structure.

The probability for each individual subunit to be a mutant is 1/2

Gene codes for a protein that forms trimer so the percentage of the trimers present in the heterozygous individual is third power of 1/2 =1/8

1/8=0.125 will be active.

1- 0.125 will be inactive.

=0.875 will be inactive.

0.875 × 100= 87.5%

Therefore 87.5% will be inactive.
