Why do proteins fold?
Proteins fold specific ways in correlation to there "task" or "job"
In the RBCs that takes oxygen from the lungs to the tissue of the body
Hemoglobin
Does the template strand have U's in it?
No
Explain the first part of cell division.
We start as one cell and divide into trillions of cells.
Do As translate to Us when going from template strand to MRNA?
Yes
Makes tendon and ligaments with strength and skin with elasticity
Collegen
Does A's translate into U's from the template strand to the mRNA strand?
Yes. (Ex. Template= ATG turns into mRNA=UAC)
Explain cell division
We start at one cell and divide into trillions with the cells having different tasks. A set of DNA is copied during replication. When a new cell is created a small segment of DNA vare put in specific jobs. The genes are Turned ON/OFF (EXPRESSED/REPRESSED) to indicate the cell and what its task/job it will be.
To strengthen tendons, ligaments and make skin have elasticity
Helps cells take in glucose used for energy
Insulin
mRNA= UCG AUG GGC CCC AGA
What would the tRNA strand be?
AGC UAC CCG GGG UCU would be the tRNA strand
What does a cell being turned on mean?
Expressed
Do proteins fold to what their task is?
Yes
Speeds up chemical reaction in cells
Enzymes
What is a cell being turned of called?
Repressed
Homoglobins
Works against any bacteria or virus invading the body
Antibody
Explain why cells are Expressed/Repressed.
The cells are turned on and off when determining what type of cell it will become.
