Why are there so many different kinds of proteins when there are only 20 different amino acids ?

Biology

Jet001 [13]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Remember, the 20 kinds of amino acids differ because of their R groups. These R groups also have different chemical bonding. There are R groups that form covalent bonds, some that form ionic bonds, and still others that form hydrogen bonds.

Answer:

Because amino acids can be arranged in many different combinations, it's possible for your body to make thousands of different kinds of proteins from just the same 21 amino acids. You may see books that say there are only 20 amino acids.

The production of protein molecules through transcription and translation
Tpy6a [65]
Transcription occurs in the nucleus of the cell. RNA polymerase breaks the hydrogen bonds and unzips a portion of DNA. RNA nucleotides match the DNA strand forming mRNA. In mRNA thymine is replaced by uracil. Once mRNA is formed it leaves the nucleus through a nuclear pore into the cytoplasm. The purpose of mRNA is to remove the protein code out of the nucleus without pulling the DNA out. mRNA then needs to find ribosomes in the cytoplasm which can be found on the rough ER. mRNA has read three bases at the same time and these are called codons. Ribosomes read the mRNA code and add the correct amino acid using tRNA. tRNA has an anti-codon on one end which will match a specific codon, and a specific amino acid on the other end. This will make translation happen. 

Translation- mRNA attaches to a ribosome and a start codon must be read. tRNA brings the first amino acid which matches the codon on mRNA. The next tRNA molecule moves in and matches with the codon on mRNA while amino acids form a peptide bond. First tRNA detaches itself and mRNA shifts for the next tRNA molecule to come in. Protein grows until a stop codon is reached and then it's ready to finish folding to become functional.

As a small change in a person's DNA can cause a genetic disorder
zzz [600]

Affirmative, that is correct.

A genetic disorder is nothing more than an abnormal occurrence in a genome, which means that if you change DNA you'll change the genome, and if the change isn't acceptable, genetic disorders can occur easily.

Genetic disorders is a fun field within genetics, and it isn't easy. The functioning of a gene might be an easy concept now a days, but we haven't mastered it. For example, it's not like maths:

- Somebody comes up with a new, unsolved problem, and tries to solve it, and while doing that, the person can create laws, theorems, equations, etc.

Once you come up against a genetic disorder (you can't just create a genetic disorder to study it) you have to study the genetic disorder itself, what caused it and why.



Hope it helped,

How can we protect keystone species?
Andreyy89

A keystone species refers to the organisms that define the entire ecosystem. These organisms are important because without them the ecosystem will work differently. They are known to be low in functional redundancy that means if these so-called keystone species disappear, there are no other species who can fill in their role. We can protect them by preserving and protecting their natural habitat, avoiding hunting activities especially the organisms that are considered to be critically endangered, planting trees, and proper waste disposal. These are some of the activities that we can do to protect them.
