Chapter 31, Problem 46P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The aspect of primary structure that allows the transfer of linear nucleic acid information into the functional 3-D protein should be determined.

Concept introduction:

After the protein biosynthesis, the proteins undergo enzymatic and covalent modifications, which is termed as post-translational modifications. The protein chain formed after the post-translational modification is the mature protein chain. These modifications occur at the amino acid residues, or at the N- and C- terminal of the protein sequence.
