Protein

Astronomy PropusProteus

Proteins are long, unbranched chains of amino acids that fold up into complex shapes because of attractive and repulsive forces between the R groups of different kinds of amino acids.

 


Proteins are organic compounds made of amino acids arranged in a linear chain and joined together by peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino groups of adjacent amino acid Residue ....

The proteins that gather light for photosynthesis are embedded within cell membranes. The simplest way these are arranged is in photosynthetic bacteria, where these proteins are held within the plasma membrane.

protein synthesis (NASA Thesaurus) Process by which protein molecules are formed. Proteus (NASA Thesaurus) A natural satellite of Neptune, orbiting at a mean distance of 117,600 kilometers.

nitrogen cycle The exchange of nitrogen between animals and plants, in which plants convert urea or nitrates to protein, animals digest protein and excrete its nitrogen content an urea, which is taken up again by plants.

carbonaceous meteorite type of stone meteorite containing silicates, carbon compounds (giving them their dark color), around 20% water, and sometimes amino acids (the building blocks of proteins used in biological processes of life).

Evolution of early reproductive proteins and enzymes is attributed in modern models of evolutionary theory to ultraviolet light.

Human beings are composed of different types of large molecules: proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, carbohydrates, etc. These molecules are held together by intermolecular forces. An example is the peptide bond that links amino acids together.

And proteins, which also contain nitrogen (and sometimes sulfur) give a net gain of about 4 calories per gram, after one subtracts the energy needed for their break-up from the amount they can supply.

amino acid -- a carbon-based molecule usedby living organisms to build protein molecules.
angstrom unit -- a unit of length used in describing wavelengths of radiation and the sizes of atoms and molecules. One angstrom 5 10210 meters.

Not initially recognizing Odo as a sentient being, Mora subjected him to a long series of experiments, in which Odo endured time in a vacuum chamber and a protein decompiler, as well as extensive electric shocks.

This type II (CM2) caarbonaceous chondrite, also primitive like Tagish Lake, became the first known meteorite in which amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, were found. This is a 0.41-gram chip.
