See AnswerQ: The protein known as tyrosinase is needed to make certain types of
The protein known as tyrosinase is needed to make certain types of pigments. Tyrosinase is composed of a single polypeptide with 511 amino acids. The molecular mass of this protein is approximately 61...
See AnswerQ: Although 61 codons specify the 20 amino acids, most species display
Although 61 codons specify the 20 amino acids, most species display a codon bias. This means that certain codons are used much more frequently than other codons. For example, UUA, UUG, CUU, CUC, CUA,...
