Describe the capacity of proteins to recognize and bind to DNA
An American biochemist Erwin Chargaff discovered that in the cells of all organisms he studied, the amount of adenine is always equal to the amount of thymine, and the amount of cytosine is always equal to the amount of guanine.
Explain his findings.

The molecule to which an antibody binds is known as an antigen. Antibodies have been exploited by enterprising scientists to generate valuable tools for research, diagnosis, and therapy. One clever application is the generation of antibodies that function like enzymes to catalyze complicated chemical reactions. If you wished to produce such a “catalytic” antibody, what would you suggest using as the anti- gen? Should it be the substrate of the reaction? The product? Something else?arrow_forward

Sickle-cell anemia results in defective hemoglobin. Two enzymes are able to metabolize the same reaction. Alkaptonuria results when individuals lack a single enzyme involved in the catalysis of homogentisic acid. A mutation in a single gene can result in a defective protein. A single antibody gene can code for different related proteins, depending on the splicing that takes place post-transcriptionally.arrow_forwardIn detail explain the one gene/ one enzyme hypothesis using one or more examplearrow_forward
