The beginning step... |
Cells read a gene in its DNA |
|
|
After the cell reads the gene in its DNA... |
The DNA tells the cell which aminoacids to use and the sequence they go in |
|
|
Is it ok the sequence of the amino acid gets mixed up? |
Absolutely not. The sequence is critial. |
|
|
What happens if you change the sequence in an amino acid? |
You change the protein completely. |
|
|
Example of changing the protein? What could this mean? |
This could allow enemies to enter. |
|
|
After the first step, what is the beginning to step 2 for protien folding? |
The different amino acids begin to interact with each other and the chain (lame af string) begins to fold. |
|
|
What is the 1st fold to form? |
Local folds. |
|
|
What are 2 types of folds? |
Alpha Helix Beta Sheet |
|
|
What does it look like before and after it folds? |
|
|
|
What is the finishing part to protein folding? |
Once the local folds are complete they collapse onto each other. |
|
|
What produces functional protien? |
The final step of protein folding when the local folds collapse onto each other. |
