The APsolute Recap: Biology Edition - Proteins
Episode description
While the traditional health food pyramid has really gone out the window, there is little argument that lean proteins are essential to a balanced diet. Proteins were almost crowned king of the biological molecules during the quest for heredity (1:06). Their diversity in structure is the greatest of all the biological molecules (2:35) with four levels as it bends and folds in upon itself (4:22). Proteins have a variety of functions, such as support, transport, recognition, movement, and communication (5:15).
The Question of the Day asks (8:02) How many stop codons are there?
