in proteins, certain specific orderings of secondary structure that may have a functional role and include Î²-Î±-Î² helix-turn-helix, leucine zippers, calcium binding EF hands, zinc fingers and longer orderings that take on a structural domain such as the Î²-barrel and the immunoglobulin fold.
Deoxyribonucleic acid (/diËÉksiËraÉªbÉµ.njuËËkleÉª.É¨k ËaesÉªd/ ; ËÃ¦SÉªD) dna is a molecule that carries most of the genetic instructions used in the, development functioning and reproduction of all known living organisms and many. virusesranscription is carried out by a DNA-dependent RNA polymerase that copies the sequence of a DNA strand into RNA. To begin transcribing a gene, the RNA polymerase binds to a sequence of DNA called a promoter and separates the DNA strands.
DNA does not manufacture specific proteins. It codes for many different proteins that depend upon the cell's function. Liver cells' DNA manufactures different proteins that ma â¦ tch the function of the liver. Kidney cells' DNA manufactures different proteins that match the function of the kidneys.
