Explain why an enzyme can no longer function once it has been denatured

1 answer:

7 0

All enzymes are proteinaceous in nature, hence there must be a structural organisation of the protein molecule. The specific structure of the protein of the enzymes is important for the activity of an enzyme.Therefore, once an enzyme structure is destroyed due to any condition such as temperature, pressure or salinity, the enzyme become no longer functional. The active site of an enzyme become lost due to denaturation, hence unable to bind with the substrate molecule for its activity.

DNA and RNA have the main difference in the presence of deoxyribose sugar in DNA and ribose sugar in RNA. One more is the presence of thymine in DNA while the presence of uracil in RNA.

<h3>What is the codon?</h3>

Codon is actually a three-letter code which is a sequence of three consecutive nucleotides in a DNA or RNA molecule which generally codes for a specific amino acid.

The DNA sequence given here is:

T A T A T C T A C G G T C C G G C A T C G A T T T C G

So the RNA sequence for this will be:

A U A U A G A U G C C A G G C C G U A G C U A A A G C.

So according to the table, the amino-acid sequence will be:

Isoleucine STOP Methionine Proline Glycine Arginine Serine STOP Serine.

Generally stop codon is responsible for the termination of protein synthesis.

Thus, this was the amino acid sequence for mRNA according to the given DNA sequence.
