Answer:
a. Always independently stable. Domain
b. Retains native structure even when separated from the rest of the protein. Domain
c. β Barrel. Motif
d. Calcium-binding segments of calmodulin. Motif
e. An advantageous folding pattern composed of two or more secondary structure elements. Domain
f. Sometimes independently stable. Motif
Explanation:
a. Protein domains are evolutionary conserved and stable 3D structures formed by a series of amino acids joined by peptide bonds.
b. Domains are stable because they conserve their tridimensional structure in physiological conditions even if they are separated of the rest of the protein.
c. The ß-barrel motif is a type of motif localized in single-stranded DNA viruses.
d. Calmodulin is a protein that contains calcium-binding motifs that enable to sense intracellular calcium levels.
e. Domain folding patterns are critical transitional states that allow the proteins their interaction with specific ligands in different physiological conditions.
f. Motifs are sometimes independently stable, but due to their short length (3-15 amino acids), protein motifs are generally unstable in different conditions.
Answer:
Ferns do not have true leaves as many plants do, but structures called fronds. These fronds are split down into leaflets called pinnae. These fronds are green and the fern gets its food via photosynthesis. Ferns reproduce by spores in an alternating generations.
Explanation:
i studied ferns for years
If you are asking if it is a true or false statement, it is a false statement. A mutation cannot possibly occur during polypeptide production or any protein synthesis or process. However, mutation may occur if the protein or enzyme is involved in any DNA replication or transcription process.
Answer:
C) Dendritic cells.
Explanation:
Dendritic cells are types of immune cells that carry out immune responses by presenting antigens on its surface to other immune system cells.
They are derived from the bone marrow and have tree-like structures. Dendritic cells are found in the skin, lungs, nose stomach and intestines. They are phagocytes and are antigen presenting cells (APCs).
Dendritic cells work by capturing the antigens from foreign bodies and processing and presenting these antigens on their cell surfaces for recognition and action by other cells of the immune system.
B is better because it has more surface area.
