100

The suffix used to name all enzymes.

What is -ase?

200

A short stretch of RNA that brings amino acids to the ribosome.

What is tRNA?

200

The type of bond formed between one positively charged amino acid and one negatively charged amino acid.

What are ionic bonds?

200

The chemical that is added to a protein sample to break disulfide bonds.

What is β-mercaptoethanol?

200

Antibodies have two constant regions and two other regions known as this.

What are variable regions?

200

The location that the enzymatic reaction occurs on an enzyme.

What is the active site?

300

A three-base sequence on nucleotides on mRNA.

What is a codon?

300

The type of bonds formed between amino acids that do not like water.

What are hydrophobic interactions?

300

The stain used to visualize proteins after PAGE.

What is coomassie blue?

300

These hold the four antibody chains together.

What are disulfide bonds?

300

The proper functioning of an enzyme is affected by temperature, salt/ion concentration, and this.

What is pH?

The three-base sequence of nucleotides on tRNA.

What is an anticodon?

400
The three parts of an amino acid.

What are R-group, amino group, and carboxyl group?

400

The component used to determine the relative size of the protein samples.

What is the molecular weight marker?

400

This technique is used in common household tests, such as COVID tests and pregnancy tests.

What is ELISA?

400

This enzyme model indicates that the reactants are perfect fits for the enzyme.

What is the lock and key model?

500
The mRNA sequence of the start codon.

What is AUG?

500

The type of bond formed between the backbones of two different amino acids.

What is a peptide bond?

500

This is used to visualize the protein sample as it moves through the gel.

What is loading dye?

500

This technique used antibodies to visualize one or two proteins after SDS-PAGE and transferring the gel to a membrane.

What is a Western blot?

500

This enzyme model indicates that the reactants squeeze to fit into the enzyme.

What is the induced fit model?
