What would happen if a amino acid sequence of an enzyme was formed incorrectly

Biology
1 answer:
Harman [31]3 years ago
3 0
If an amino acid sequence is formed incorrectly (i.e. DNA point mutations or frameshift mutations) then the enzyme can either be dysfunctional or non-functional; both of which lead to the end point of enzyme deficiency and overt disease. For example, the mutation of the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase or G6PD decreases the production of antioxidants which can lead to increased hemolysis of red blood cells causing the clinical manifestation of jaundice (since the end point of metabolism of hemoglobin is bilirubin).

What similarities, if any, do you think exist between a human’s reproductive cycle and the life cycle of a fern? What difference
ipn [44]

Answer:

Plant Reproduction and Life Cycle. The life cycle of a plant is very different from the life cycle of an animal. Humans are made entirely of diploid cells (cells with two sets of chromosomes, referred to as ''2n''). ... Plants, however, can live when they are at the stage of having haploid cells or diploid cells.

Explanation:

In an animal life cycle, male and female parents each create sex cells (sperm and eggs) that unite to form a fertilized egg and develop into an offspring organism. Plants, likewise, have sperm and eggs in their life cycles, but these are produced by an intermediate stage between the adult and the offspring.

In this metabolic process, the enzyme RNA polymerase binds RNA nucleotides (the substrates) together by catalyzing the formation
stira [4]

Answer:

TRANSCRIPTION

Explanation:

Transcription is the first process that occurs in the expression of a gene. It involves the synthesis of a mRNA molecule from a DNA template. The DNA molecule, which is located in the nucleus of an eukaryotic cell, is bound to by an enzyme called RNA polymerase in order to synthesize an mRNA molecule/strand.

RNA polymerase synthesizes a mRNA molecule using complementary base pairing rule i.e. Uracil base (U) is synthesized when Adenine (A) is read, Adenine when Thymine (T) is read, Guanine (G) when cytosine (C) is read, Cytosine when guanine is read. These nucleotide bases are then joined together via chemical bonding.

In a nutshell, RNA polymerase catalyzes the formation of a bond between the backbone sugar of one nucleotide base to the backbone phosphate of another nucleotide base in the metabolic process of TRANSCRIPTION.
