The change in the amino acid sequence illustrated in Figure 1 caused a change in the shape of Receptor X . Based on the R groups of the original and substituted amino acids, explain why Receptor X changed shape.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Change in Amino Acid sequence creates a whole new substance

Explanation:

Amino acid sequences with alterations will not fold into the same tertiary structure as the unaltered amino acid sequence. This causes receptors to not only change shape but not send the same signals. In short, any alterations in an amino acid sequence results in a completely different protein/receptor.
