- Both milk and egg whites (albumin) contain proteins. What do your findings suggest for the stability of these proteins at higher temperature?When a protein denatures in a cell, it tends to assemble into aggregates. Propose an explanation for this phenomenon. Briefly describe a disease that is caused by aggregation of denatured proteins.Can you please describe the specific components that each of these structures are comprised of ( alpha helices and beta sheets) in more detail? Also, what do the different colors represent? Your reply will be greatly appreciated. The ligand that was assigned to me is tadalafil.
- does all 20 amino acids soluble in organic solvents like acetone and chloroform? true or falseIn an experiment attempting to explain how proteins act and denaturation, an egg white was used and full cream milk in heating from a sauce pan. Why is it not recommended to use reconstituted or evaporated milk? Why is full cream milk suggested to be used?if comparing proteins with a Tm=54 degrees C and one with a Tm =78 degrees c, which is more stable
- Why do proteins precipitate at high salt concentrations? Although many proteins precipitate at high salt concentrations, some proteins require salt to dissolve in water. Explain why some proteins require salt to dissolve.In some autoimmune diseases, an individual develops antibodies that recognize cell constituents such as DNA and phospholipids. Some of the antibodies react with both DNA and phospholipids. What is the structural basis for this cross-reactivity?Some proteins migrate anomalously in SDS-PAGE gels. For instance, the molecular weight determined from an SDS-PAGE gel is sometimes very different from the molecular weight determined from the amino acid sequence. Suggest an explanation for this discrepancy.
- Explain what the meaning of these distances is (e.g., from where to where?)Crystal structure of human monocyte chemotactic protein-2What is protein denaturation? Give five agents that can denature proteins Is it possible for a denatured protein to revert into its native/original form? Please explainProteins treated with proteolytic enzymes hydrolyzed peptide bonds to yield a mixture of amino acids only. Is the statement TRUE OR FALSE?
