How to use in-sentence of “polypeptide”:
– A polypeptide is a string or linear chain of amino acids linked together.
– At a symposium in 1938 at Cold Spring Harbor, Astbury pointed out that the 0.34 nanometre spacing was the same as amino acids in polypeptide chains.
– Stop codons indicate the end of this process, and therefore, the end of polypeptide synthesis.
– The polypeptide also has to be folded before it works as a protein.
– Most codons in messenger RNA correspond to the addition of an amino acid to a growing polypeptide chain, which may ultimately become a protein.
– A single polypeptide chain might make up the entire primary structure of a simple protein; more complex proteins are formed when two or more polypeptides link together.
– One major function of chaperones is to prevent polypeptide chains and assembled subunits sticking together in clumps which do not function.
– Then, after the transcription transcription of polypeptide genes, the amino acids are put together.
