Question

List the chemical change undergone by a molecule of protein from the time it is swallowed to the time when its components are used in a cell. In each case state where the changes are taking place

Answer 1

Answer:

have seen that each type of protein consists of a precise sequence of amino acids that allows it to fold up into a particular three-dimensional shape, or conformation. But proteins are not rigid lumps of material. They can have precisely engineered moving parts whose mechanical actions are coupled to chemical events. It is this coupling of chemistry and movement that gives proteins the extraordinary capabilities that underlie the dynamic processes in living cells.
