What is polypeptide chains?

Chains of amino acids are referred to as polypeptides. Proteins are created from one or more of these polypeptide molecules.


How many polypeptide chains form the globin portion of the molecule?

The globin portion of hemoglobin is made up of four polypeptide chains: two alpha chains and two beta chains. Each chain is encoded by a separate gene.


What is the purpose of the ribosomes?

Ribosomes are molecules which are present within all active, or living cells. Their purpose is to connect amino acids to each other in order to form polypeptide chains. These are related to DNA structures.


What make up a protein?

Proteins are complex molecules of amino acids.


Does the hemoglobin molecule has polypeptide chains?

Yes. Hemoglobin consists of four heme groups as well as a globin. Globin is a type of protein - proteins are made of polypeptide chains.


What places the amino acid on the growing polypeptide chains?

Ribo


Do all proteins consist of one or more polypeptide chains?

Yes, all proteins are composed of one or more polypeptide chains, which are formed from amino acids. Proteins can be made up of a single polypeptide chain or multiple chains that interact with each other to form a functional protein molecule.


What is the correct order smallest to largest protein - amino acid - polypeptide?

The correct order from smallest to largest is: amino acid, polypeptide, protein. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, which are made up of one or more polypeptide chains. The polypeptide chains fold and interact to form the final protein structure.


What is composed of polysaccharide and polypeptide?

Glycoproteins are composed of polysaccharide chains (carbohydrates) covalently linked to polypeptide chains (proteins). These molecules play important roles in cell signaling, recognition, and structure in living organisms.


Proteins with more than one polypeptide chain have what structure?

Proteins with more than one polypeptide chain have a quaternary structure. This structure is formed by the assembly of multiple polypeptide chains into a functional protein complex. The interactions between the individual polypeptide chains contribute to the overall structure and function of the protein.
