Chapter 11, Problem 14P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The circumferences of the perfect circles formed from the given plasmid and chromosome are to be calculated. Also, the diameter of the double-stranded DNA and the ratio of the length of the circular plasmid to the diameter of the DNA and the ratio of the length of the chromosome to the diameter of the DNA are to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid, is a biological macromolecule. In organisms, it carries genetic information and is required for protein production, cell reproduction, regulation and metabolism.

A plasmid refers to a DNA molecule of smaller size in a cell that is separated from chromosomal DNA and capable of replicating independently.

what are the different classes and some examples of neuroprotectants that can be used to treat, prevent, or combat neurotoxicity/a neurotoxicant...for example, antioxidants, nutraceuticals, etc.,..?
Imagine that aldolase can react with the seven carbon molecule Sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate (below). Use the mechanism to predict the two products generated. Please draw out the stereochemistry in a fischer projection.
Sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is a potent inhibitor of aldolase. It is known to ONLY inhibit theenzyme when it is complexed with substrate. Treatment of the enzyme alone has no effect.What is the mechanism for this inhibition? Please draw out the mechanism and show how it inhibits this.
