BugRx is a new biotechnology company in Cambridge, Massachusetts, developing human monoclonal antibodies made in insect cells. The CEO, Dr. Bugsbunny, has convened a Board Meeting to discuss research proposals and budgets. The VP of Research & Development, Karen Hucklebug, gives an update on the Factor 801A program. Factor 801A is new signal transduction molecule that is important for the growth of ovarian cancer cells. She explains that the structure of the antibody binding to 810A has been finalized and production is on schedule in Luv Bug, Ireland. The CMO, Dr. David Sprayberry, reminds the Board that several pathologists have reported high levels of Factor 801A in ovarian cancer cells and it is a significant prognostic factor. The American Cancer Society estimates that 14,070 women died of ovarian cancer in the United States in 2018. The VP of Marketing, Andrew Flynn, asks about the current treatments for ovarian cancer. David explains that most ovarian cancers spread through…

In the Spring and Summer of 2020, mass protests erupted across the US in response to police violence against African Americans. At the same time, the US was experiencing a COVID-19 pandemic. Many public health experts wondered whether participating in these protests (exposure) would be associated with being diagnosed with COVID-19 (outcome). Imagine you have been hired to draft a plan to study this potential association. There are many parts of the discussion. Be sure to answer all questions. • Which study design would you choose? (Almost any design is okay). Explain the factors that influenced why you selected that one. Include some of the benefits/drawbacks of your selected study design and the benefits/drawbacks of ONE of the study designs you did not select. • Write your research question and make a hypothesis about the results. • Research question should be neutral. Do not include words such as "increases" or "decreases." • Hypothesis can include words such as "increases" or…

1. Using the data available Using the data available on Moodle describe the phenotype that you observe when each of these three genes is knocked down using RNAi. Remember to compare the worms on control RNAi plates with worms on each of the RNAi knockdown plates. In each case state how do these phenotypes relate to the function of the gene. describe the phenotype that you observe when each of these three genes is knocked down using RNAi.

Describe further experiments that you could do that would confirm your findings.
3. Coronaviruses express a nucleocapsid protein that is needed for propagation, transcription, and assembly of the virus. The nucleocapsid protein must be phosphorylated by a kinase in the host cell to carry out these functions. One such kinase that has been recently reported is glycogen synthase kinase 3 or GSK-3. The following is the 10-letter sequence of the nucleocapsid protein that is recognized and phosphorylated by GSK-3: SSRGTSPARM. Note: pk. N-terminus = 9.3; pk. R = 12.5; pK. T= 13; pK. S= 13; pK. C-terminus = 4.3 a) What is the sequence of the peptide using the three-letter amino acid abbreviations? b) Draw the chemical structure of the peptide when it is at pH 8. Assign charges and label the peptide bonds. c) What is the pl of the peptide? Do not use an online resource to calculate this value. Show your work to receive credit.
(a) Answer all sections (i)- (Iv). Below is given the structure of three anti-HIV drugs: OH Meo. OMe NH Ph Nevirapine Atazanavir Staudivine (i) Give the drug target and discuss the anti-HIV mechanism of each of these drugs. Vaccines are an attractive prophylactic treatment against both viral and bacterial diseases. A number of glycaconjugate vaccines using bacterial polysaccharide structures conjugated to protein carriers have been introduced into mass vaccination schemes with excellent results. What differences are there in the immune response to a glycoconjugate vaccine as compared to a polysaccharide vaccine? These glycoconjugate va nes has been used for 30 years without any change in their structures, while the composition of the flu vaccine, based on attenuated or killed virus particies, is changed from year to year. Discuss the reason behind this. (iv) Discuss why it has not been possible to develop a (part structure) vaccine against the HIV virus, based on either I) viral…

Hello, I just need a essay about Preventive measures of Covid-19 with a title of 'Health Equity in times of Covid-19 vaccination'. Thank you!
Because of similarities between hypoxia associated with high altitude and COVID-19, some studies have suggested that people living at high altitude may be accustom to low blood oxygen levels and therefore less adversely effected by coronavirus infection. Based on your knowledge of acclimation/adaptations to high-altitude, DISCUSS whether you think high altitude hypoxia might protected against coronavirus infection. Justify your answer. Your words may not be more than 100 words.
