How does a 99% reaction efficiency per cycle in Edman degradation lead to a significant accumulation of failed products?

Calculate the cumulative yield after 30 cycles of Edman degradation with a reaction efficiency of 98%.

What is the relationship between reaction efficiency, the number of degradation cycles, and the risk of inaccurate protein sequencing?

If the reaction efficiency is 95%, what is the cumulative yield after 20 cycles?

What happens to the cumulative yield as the number of Edman degradation cycles increases?

Evaluate the impact of a cumulative yield of 55% on protein sequencing accuracy.

Explain the effect of a 1% failure rate per cycle in Edman degradation over 50 cycles.
