amino acid chain
Proteins are made from simpler molecules, called amino-acids.
process repeated many times --> linear chain of amino acids, a polypeptide
The linear sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain is known
beta-sheet (arrows indicate the direction of the amino acid chain)
Amino acids are linked together to form a polypeptide chain, like beads on a
Amino acid sequence of amediplase. Amediplase is a single-chain glycoprotein
Amino Acid Structures
The branched-chain amino acids - valine, leucine, and isoleucine.
Amino acids, you see a lot in the press about them and we know they have
14.6 In cyclic peptides, the amino acid sequence is formulated in the usual
Amino acid repeat sequence, showing three N-C-C-O units (red, green, blue).
and the codons of the mRNA guide the formation of the amino acid chain.
Amino acid sequence of rat and human DIPP. (A) The partial sequence of rat
Amino acid; 2, zwitterion structure; 3, two amino acids forming a peptide
Side Chain Modifications. Modifications involving amino acid side chains:
Branched chain amino acid and lysine biosynthesis
Small stretches of the amino-acid chain form typical folds.
Role of aminotransferases in branched chain amino acid synthesis
Each amino acid has its own specific properties like size, hydrophobicity,
Amino acids are linked together to form long chains.
