    Denaturation of Proteins

    • 3000 Words
    • 12 Pages

    “Denaturation of Proteins” Denaturation is a process in which proteins or nucleic acids lose the tertiary structure and secondary structure which is present in their native state‚ by application of some external stress or compound such as a strong acid or base‚ a concentrated inorganic salt‚ an organic solvent (e.g.‚ alcohol or chloroform)‚ or heat. If proteins in a living cell are denatured‚ this results in disruption of cell activity and possibly cell death. Denatured proteins can exhibit

    DENATURATION OF PROTEINS Abstract The experiment aimed to use the concept of viscosity to study the effects of different denaturants on 1% albumin extract. An Ostwald viscometer was used to measure the flow time of 5 mL of the blank and native protein. These were then denatured by adding 1 mL of denaturant and had their flow time measured. The flow time from the blank to denatured protein is increasing. The specific viscosity and reduced viscosity

    Denaturation of Proteins

    • 647 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Denaturation of proteins involves the disruption and possible destruction of both the secondary and tertiary structures. Since denaturation reactions are not strong enough to break the peptide bonds‚ the primary structure (sequence of amino acids) remains the same after a denaturation process. Denaturation disrupts the normal alpha-helix and beta sheets in a protein and uncoils it into a random shape. Denaturation occurs because the bonding interactions responsible for the secondary structure (hydrogen

    living creatures‚ work together in a certain process that is crucial to existence: the formation of proteins. Although all species differ from each other in various ways‚ the processes by which proteins are synthesized are the same in all. Protein synthesis is a very complex process. In order to understand the process‚ there some basics that are essential for cells to create the proper proteins. DNA is a very long and double-stranded molecule that contains coding‚ through four nitrogen bases (adenine

    Receptor Protein – Protein that binds to a specific single molecule‚ enabling the cell to respond to the signal molecule. i.e. – The muscles of a person exercising can not contract without receptor proteins and signal molecules that tell the muscles when to contract and when to relax. Second Messenger – Signal molecule produced in response to the binding of a chemical signal. Acts as a signal molecule in the cytoplasm. Signal Molecule – Carries information throughout the body and to other

    Sarah Khan Bivins-5th April 20th‚ 2013 Protein Synthesis Every day‚ you take in an abundance of different biomolecules; one of them being proteins. Have you ever wondered how proteins are made? They don’t just grow from a tree or fall from the sky‚ they are made through a process called protein synthesis. Protein synthesis is broken up in two two steps: transcription and translation. Transcription starts inside the nucleus when the DNA is unzipped by helicase. Following that‚ the mRNA nucleotides

    CHARACTERIZATION OF PROTEINS Abstract Different techniques and principles for protein extraction and characterization were demonstrated in this experiment. Various proteins were extracted from different sources: 1.67 g yeast invertase‚ 1.03 g egg white albumin‚ and 5.15 g of milk casein. Activity assay for invertase was performed using Benedict’s test and the enzymes inverting action on sucrose was confirmed. Warburg-Christian Method and Bradford Assay were also employed to determine the protein concentration

    Abstract The activity of invertase and the quantification of albumin and casein were performed and analyzed after extraction of the said proteins from their respective sources. Isolation of proteins was initiated by the breakage of the cell wall / membranes in three different ways. Homogenization of invertase‚ albumin and casein were achieved via grinding process‚ addition of 1M acetic acid and acidification by 0.1M hydrochloric acid correspondingly. Extraction of invertase and casein involved
