Answer:

as a dimer consisting of two identical monomers (80 kDa subunits) that are packed together via hydrophobic interactions

Explanation:

SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulphate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis), is an electrophoretic methodology used to separate proteins that have a molecular weight between 5 to 250 kDa. SDS is a well-known ionic detergent that is able to break hydrophobic interactions and hydrogen bonds. Moreover, size-exclusion chromatography is a filtration technique that separates molecules in solution according to their molecular size. In this case, SDS-PAGE showed that the target protein is composed of two identical subunits (monomers) of 80 kDa each, which were separated by the detergent and formed one single band in the SDS-PAGE gel.

Describe the interaction between the atmosphere and the hydrosphere. (The Water Cycle)
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

These spheres are closely connected. For example, many birds (biosphere) fly through the air (atmosphere), while water (hydrosphere) often flows through the soil (lithosphere). Interactions also occur among the spheres; for example, a change in the atmosphere can cause a change in the hydrosphere, and vice versa.

Explanation:

Hope this helps you!:)

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Microtubules have shapes like a spindle and are arranged to form centrosome and a cluster of such microtubules form centriole.

Explanation:

Microtubules are seen in eukaryotic cells to give shape and structure to the cells and they form part of the cytoskeleton. They are known to grow long and are dynamic. Centrosomes are known to be main microtubule that are found in animal cells. They are organelles that are made from the arrangement of clusters of microtubules. The centrioles are organized microtubules that actually help to serve as skeletal system of the cell. These centrioles  help to determine the locations of the nucleus.
