Rho protein, that is necessary for transcription termination, is a ________

Rho protein, that is necessary for transcription termination, is a ________ Correct Answer Homohexamer

Rho is a 46KDa hexameric protein with 6 identical subunits. Thus, it is a holohexamer. A four subunit protein with all identical subunit would be a holotetramer, not identical subunit would be heterotetramer respectively.

Phytase, an enzyme produced by Aspergillus niger can be adsorbed on microcrystalline cellulose powder (MCCP). The adsorption follows a Langmuir isotherm and the maximum concentration of the protein that can be obtained on the adsorbent is 70 mg cm-1. At a concentration of 50 mg L-1 of protein in the solution, the concentration of protein on the adsorbent reaches 35 mg cm-1. It is desired to recover 90% of the protein from 1.5 liter of the cell free culture filtrate containing 220 mg L-1 protein by addition of MCCP to the solution. The concentration of the protein adsorbed on the solid at equilibrium will be:
Which of the following is/are not a provision of Medical Termination of Pregnancy Bill, 2020? 1. The Bill seeks to amend Medical Termination of Pregnancy (MTP) Act, 1971. 2. It introduces the requirement of the opinion of two registered medical practitioners for termination of pregnancy of 20-24 weeks of gestation. 3. It enhanced the gestation limit for ‘special categories’ of women which includes survivors of rape, victims of incest and other vulnerable women like differently-abled women and minors.
The rho protein can even bind within operons to terminate transcription.
Directions : In each of the following questions a statement is given, followed by two conclusions. Give answer :

Statements : About 50 per cent of the animal by-products - hair, skin, horns etc. is edible protein. American chemists have developed a method of isolating 45 per cent of this protein. They used an enzyme developed in Japan to break down soya protein.

Conclusions :
I. Americans have not been able to develop enzymes.
II. Animal by-products protein has the same composition as soya protein.
