How do hormones play a role in affecting behavior in an animal – both before birth and after birth? What do we mean by “organization” and “activation?” What is being organized and what is being activated or inactivated? Provide an example to support...

This problem is about the relationship between the structure and function of the enzyme phytase, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphoester linkages in phytate, otherwise known as myo-inositol-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexaphosphate: phytate + 6 H2O ® inositol + 6 Pi (inorganic phosphate) The molecule myo-inositol (hereafter simply “inositol”) is a part of several important...

Phytate is an extracellular enzyme and possesses disulfide bonds. Is the presence of disulfide bonds expected or unexpected for an extracellular protein?             (+0.5) Map all the disulfides by entering the residue number of the Cys in each pair. One of them is given for you as...

d) In the proposed mechanism of the phytase enzyme, the catalytic His17 performs a nucleophilic attack on the nearby phosphate moiety, resulting in transfer of the phosphate from phytate to His17. The histidine-phosphate linkage is then broken by hydrolysis in the second step, perhaps catalyzed...

Use Swiss PDBViewer (or your favorite structure viewer) to analyze the structures and answer the following questions. Classify the folds of the following proteins. (Each is a single domain. If there is more than one chain or model, only examine one.) For each domain, classify...

Hardy Weinberg Practice Problems 1. In a human population of 1000, 840 are tongue rollers (TT or Tt) and 160 are non-tongue rollers (t). What is the frequency of the dominant allele (T) n the population? 2. In a population at genetic equilibrium, the frequency...

The attached file contains a Caucasian family pedigree showing some of the members with a diseases named Cystic Fibrosis. Cystic Fibrosis is observed in 1/2500 live births. In Caucasians mutant alleles are observed in a frequency of 0.025 (1 mutant chromosome/40 total chromosomes). You know this...
