Small molecules that must combine with large proteins to become immunogenic are called haptens. Haptens alone are not immunogenic, but when they bind to proteins in the body, they can elicit an immune response.
Enzymes are the special proteins that can break down large molecules into smaller molecules. These biological catalysts speed up chemical reactions in cells by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur.
Propane consists of small molecules. It is a simple hydrocarbon compound that is composed of three carbon atoms and eight hydrogen atoms.
Macromolecules.
A polymer. Polymers are formed when small molecules, called monomers, link together to create long chains or networks. Examples of polymers include proteins, DNA, and many synthetic materials like plastics.
Large Food Molecules in The Small Intestine!
no but has many small molecules
carbohydrates
Physical digestion is the term for breaking down large food molecules into small molecules. Mechanical digestion and physical digestion mean the same thing.
The process in which food containing large, insoluble molecules is broken down in to small, water soluble molecules (which can be absorbed by the body) is called digestion.
Small molecules that must combine with large proteins to become immunogenic are called haptens. Haptens alone are not immunogenic, but when they bind to proteins in the body, they can elicit an immune response.
synthesis
AnswerIt can be a peptide, if it is of medium size, and the biggest is a protein molecule. A large molecule made up of amino acids may also be an enzyme.
No, polypeptides are not lipids. Polypeptides are large molecules also called proteins; lipids tend to be relatively small molecules with an "ionic" end and a "greasy" end.
