Simple electrostatic interactions are fully responsible for long peptide chains becoming giant, globular, functional proteins. Research and discuss two examples of improper protein folding. What is the cause of each malformed protein? What is the consequence of this deformity? What are potential treatment options, and how do they address and remedy the problem?arrow_forwardA particular DNA sequence encodes for MRNA that then encodes for the amino acid glutamate in a protein. A mutation occurs in the DNA that changes the MRNA codon for the glutamate into a different codon. Which change would cause the least disruption to the structure of the protein? Hint: Think about the nature of the various R groups (side-chains) of the amino acids, and how intermolecular forces/interactions govern the way a protein folds into its three-dimensional structure. The codon for the glutamate is changed into a stop codon. The codon for the glutamate is changed into the codon for aspartate. O The codon for the glutamate is changed into the codon for phenylalanine. O The codon for the glutamate is changed into the codon for serine.arrow_forward
