prokaryotes:
may only express genes under certain environmental conditions (saves energy)
prokaryotes:

eukaryotes:
environmental conditions
eukaryotes:
environmental conditions
protein are 50% of cell mass
protein are 50% of cell mass
proteins are made up subunits of amino acids
20 amino acids (with different side chains)
polypetide
proteins are made up subunits of amino acids
20 amino acids (with different side chains)
polypetide
sequence of amino acids determine structure
structure determines function
sequence of amino acids determine structure
structure determines function
structure of proteins:
primary:sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide
structure of proteins:
primary:sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide
secondary structure: coils and folds in a polypeptide that result from hydrogen bonds between backbone molecules
coil=alpha helix
fold=beta sheet

coil=alpha helix
fold=beta sheet
tertiary structure: overall shape of a polypeptide that results from interactions between side chains
tertiary structure: overall shape of a polypeptide that results from interactions between side chains
quaternary structure: overall protein structure that results from multiple polypeptide chains
quaternary structure: overall protein structure that results from multiple polypeptide chains
under the wrong environmental conditions proteins can become denatured (lose their normal structure)
denatured proteins are biologically inactive
