• translation

How many nucleotides code for 1 amino acid?

• 1

• 2

• 3

• 4

Why is folding so important in proteins?

• It gives them a unique, 3-D functional shape

• It makes them look tidier

• It makes every protein molecule different from the next even if they are the same type

• The folding is random so is not that important at all
