Amino acid sequence
The sequence of amino acids as arrayed in chains, sheets, etc., within the protein molecule. this is referred to as the primary structure of proteins. It is of fundamental importance in determining protein conformation.
Pertaining to the sequencing of amino acids that create the protein they are coded for.
This tutorial looks at the mutation at the gene level and the harm it may bring. Learn about single nucleotide polymorphisms, temperature-sensitive mutations, indels, trinucleotide repeat expansions, and gene duplication...
Genes are expressed through the process of protein synthesis. This elaborate tutorial provides an in-depth review of the different steps of the biological production of protein starting from the gene up to the process of secretion. Also included are topics on DNA replication during interphase of the cell cycle, DNA mutation and repair mechanisms, gene pool, modification, and diseases...
The endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus are the organelles involved in the translation step of protein synthesis and the ensuing post-translational steps. Read this tutorial for more info...
The body is comprised of different elements with hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen as the major four. This tutorial will help you understand the chemical composition of the body. This will come in handy when considering the various interactions between cells and structures. ..
Proteins have a crucial role in various biological activities. Get to know how proteins are able to perform as enzymes, cofactors, or regulators. In this tutorial, you will also know the common metabolic pathways of biomolecules, such as glucose and other carbohydrates, fats, proteins and amino acids, and essential nutrients...
Mutations can also influence the phenotype of an organism. This tutorial looks at the effects of chromosomal mutations, such as nondisjunction, deletion, and duplication. ..
