The pattern searching method type of analysis was performed on groups of related proteins, and the amino acid patterns that were located may be found in the Prosite catalog. Correct Answer True

This Prosite catalog groups proteins that have similar biochemical functions on the basis of amino acid patterns such as those in the active site. Subsequently, these families were searched for amino acid patterns by the MOTIF program (Smith et al. 1990), which finds patterns of the type aa1 d1 aa2 d2 aa3, where aa1 and aa2 are conserved amino acids and d1 and d2 are stretches of intervening sequence up to 24 amino acids long.

Consider the following statements regarding genetic code and choose the correct answer:
1. The genetic code is degenerate
2. In all amino acids the first two bases are the same in all the codons that represent a particular amino acid
3. The number of codons an amino acid can claim is proportional to the frequency of the amino acid in proteins
4. Amino acids with codons ending in U or A also have codons ending in C or G respectively
Analysis of a hexapeptide using enzymatic cleavage reveals the following result:
• Amino acid composition of the peptide is: 2R, A, V, S, Y
• Trypsin digestion yields two fragments and the compositions are: (R, A, V) and (R, S, Y)
• Chymotrypsin digestion yields two fragments and the compositions are: (A, R, V, Y) and (R, S)
• Digestion with carboxypeptidase A yields no cleavage product.
Given: Trypsin cleaves at carboxyl side of R. Chymotrypsin cleaves at carboxyl side of Y. Carboxypeptidase A cleaves at amino side of the C-terminal amino acid (except R and K) of the peptide.
The correct amino acid sequence of the peptide is:
In a batch process, the reaction takes place in the presence of an acid medium. The acid is drained from the reaction vessel at the rate of 15ml/s as a result of the density difference of the acid from the reacting component. To avoid wastage of acid, it is recycled to an acid tank which has 1000 L capacity. The acid drained from the reaction vessel, picks up 50 g/L solids from the reactor. Acid is fed once again to the process from acid tank. When the process is started, the acid is almost pure in the tank as a result of filtration. As the reaction proceeds, acid in the tank gets more and more contaminated with the solids. The concentration of the solids should not exceed 100 g/L from the process point of view. The batch time is 16h. Estimate whether the concentration of the solids will exceed 100g/L during the batch reaction.
PROTPARS counts the minimum number of mutations to change a codon for the first amino acid into a codon for the second amino acid, but only scores those mutations in the mutational path that actually change the amino acid.

Ants have been living on the earth for more than 100 million years and can be found almost anywhere on the planet. It is estimated that there are about 20000 different species of ants. For this reason ants have been called Earth's most successful species. If you watch ants for any length of time you will see that they really do communicate with each other and very effectively too. Ants communicate by touching each other with their antennae. Ants also use chemicals called pheromones to leave scent trails for other ants to follow. Ants build many different types of homes. Many ants build simple little mounds out of dirt or sand. Other ants use small sticks mixed with dirt and sand to make a stronger mound that offers protection from rain. Western Harvester ants make a small mound on top, but then tunnels up to 15 feet straight down to hibernate during winter. Ant mounds consist of many chambers connected by tunnels. Different chambers are used for nurseries, food storage, and resting places for the worker ants. Some ants live in wood like termites. Army ants don't make a home at all but travel in a large groups searching for food. Ants are social insects which means they live in large colonies or groups. Some colonies consist of millions of ants. There are three types of ants in each species, the queen, the sterile female workers and males. The male ants only serve one purpose, to mate with future queen ants and do not live very long. The queen grows to adulthood, mates, and then spends rest of her life laying eggs. A colony may have only one queen, or there may be many queens depending on the species. Ants go through four stages of development: egg, larva, pupa and adult.
