Biochemistry
What is a protein motif?
A scientist discovers a new protein with multiple independently folding units. How should these units be classified?
How can identifying a known domain in a new protein help predict its function?
What is the relationship between secondary structures and motifs?
A single polypeptide chain is found to have three distinct domains. What does this imply about its folding and function?
Design a hypothetical protein motif using a combination of secondary structures and describe its potential function.
Create a hypothetical protein structure using known motifs and describe its potential biological role.
