    Alhia Harris October 18‚ 2011 Biology Lab report Proteins are very important throughout the body. They have a lot of functions in cells. Antibodies are proteins that help cells rebuild the cells when they are destroyed. Transport proteins move substances from one place to another. Regulatory proteins control cellular metabolism in a way that cells throughout the body can have the right amount of glucose in the blood. A common protein is an enzyme; in cells they speed up chemical reactions. For

Nucleus; the nucleus is the control centre of the whole cell. The nucleus of living cells contains genetic material that determines the structure and function of the cell it’s controlling. Nucleolus; the nucleolus is in the nucleus where rRNA genes exist and are transcribed. The resulting rRNAs and ribosomal proteins are combined to form the ribosomal subunits. The

They are another word for proteins. When a cell makes a protein the direction are resembled from the part of an DNA. DNA strand and transcript combine to make RNA. RNA molecules carries the directions from the nucleus to ribosomes to make proteins. There are two main steps to make protein from DNA they are transcription and translation
