Task 1 • Describe the structure of an enzyme as a protein‚ in terms of tertiary/ quaternary structures. 1) Primary Structure This is in reference to the order of way that amino acids are connected to form a protein. These are built up from 20 amino acids‚ and follow these structures o A carbon (the alpha carbon) bonded to the four groups below: o A hydrogen atom (H) o A Carboxyl group (-COOH) o An Amino group (-NH2) o A "variable" group or "R" group 2) Secondary Structure This is in reference

The Unified Modeling language (UML) was released by the Object Management Group (OMG) in the effort to provide a standardized design language to build and develop computer applications. The purpose of the design language is to allow IT professionals to distribute system structure and design plans in a comprehensible graphical manner‚ similar to blueprints of a building. Modeling is an important part of software projects‚ large and small. With modeling‚ the software development team are better

the allowed 50-60% range‚ forward being 55.6% GC and the reverse being 60% GC. The melting temperature (Tm) of the forward primer is 62.7 ºC and the Tm of the reverse is 55.9 ºC. The primers match in terms of having a GC content of ± 5% and Tm’s ± 10 ºC of one another. Lastly‚ the primers are unique to the target sequence in E. coli as determined by the BLASTn database. Refer to appendix 4 and 5 to view the primer uniqueness results. The restriction sites that were used to clone the PCR fragment

Ultra thin film coatings can be used in a wide range of applications as lubricants‚ anti-stiction layers‚ molecular glues‚ coupling agents or adhesion layers. The mentioned molecular coatings are used to modify material surface properties. The traditional coating deposition methods consist of a set of sequential wet baths. The wet processing method is complex and limits the ability of molecular coating in many MEMS applications. The use of liquid precursors has extremely limited bath life‚ which cause

Acid-Base Calculations The Ion-Product Constant for Water‚ Kw Water undergoes ionization to a small extent: H20(l) H+(aq) + OH–(aq) The equilibrium constant for the reaction is the ion-product constant for water Kw: (1) This is a key equation in acid-base chemistry. Note that the product of [H+] and [OH–] is a constant at a given temperature (Eq(1) value is for 25oC). Thus as the hydrogen ion concentration of a solution increases‚ the hydroxide ion concentration decreases
