- what are the features which set the G protein family of receptors apart? help for my biochem hw, he is very detailedThe protein on the right called desmolaris, also called Draculin, found in bats. It is a non competitive inhibitor of Factor Xa. So what is this protein for? Why inhibit Factor Xa?Many amino acids have multiple condons The signal there creation. For example both a G and AAA code for LYS what is the reason for this redundancy.
