Document Summary
Thus far we have talked about enzymes and their roles in biological pathways. Proteins may perform a variety of other functions in the cell as well. Where do these proteins come from dna can replicate itself and can serve as a template for rna which then codes for proteins. The complete genome sequence of a neanderthal from the altai mountains. Catalogued sites where all (or nearly all) present day humans have the same snp but differ from neanderthal: differ at 31,389 snps- 87 proteins more closely related than previously thought. Recalibrating equus evolution using the genome sequence of an early middle. Shed some light on modern day horses, this horse is more closely related to ancient horses than modern day ones, some take refuge in chernobyl. Early 1900s scientists thought protein was the molecule of heredity. 20 amino acids vs 4 nucleotides: protein contains more information per unit. They took a lot of convincing that it was dna .
