You are working in a bioengineering lab, and you are asked to create a peptide with a helix with length of 3 nm, a beta strand with length of 35 Å, and a linker containing 25 amino acid residues. a. How many amino acid residues are in this peptide? b. What is the mass of the peptide? 2. Why is quinary structure necessary for a full understanding of how drugs work in cells?
Explain the application of protein engineering in medicine? Please answer at your own words, please.
Scientists are interested in studying a toxic molecule found in a patient having a viral disease. They suspect the molecule originated from the retrovirus causing the disease. The challenge they have is that the molecule is in very small quantity to perform tests to determine its remedy. Give a detailed account on how the scientists can go about making more of the molecule considering that only the amino acid sequence of the molecule isknown.
