Different combinations of amino acids give different properties to proteins. Therefore, the main feature that should be used in distinguishing proteins from each other is the amino acid sequence of proteins. However, proteins can be distinguished by their size and the biochemical properties as well.

Answer:

Proteins are made of amino acids that gives them different properties. The different properties of the proteins makes them different from each other.

Proteins can also be differentiated based on their structures. It can be primary, secondary, tertiary or quarternary. The structure of the protein determines its function.

Basically, the type of amino acid found in the protein determines its properties.

Which antibiotic would you use to determine if the recombinant dna was taken in?
Brrunno [24]
Antibiotic used include kenamycin, ampicillin and tetracycline. This is useful to determine if and which bacteria took up the plasmid as they were supposed to during the process of recombination. Host bacteria are normally killed by these antibiotics. If the recombinant plasmids were taken up by the bacteria, plasmid may have contained a DNA gene for resisting the effects of one or more antibiotics. Host bacteria are placed in a growth medium containing an antibiotic to which they have a resistant gene in their recombinant plasmid DNA survivor. If they havent taken the plasmid they die.
