Given below is the two dimensional illustration of cobrotoxin, a toxin from cobra snake and its structural illustration.
Given below is the two dimensional illustration of cobrotoxin, a toxin from cobra snake and its structural illustration. Cobrotoxin is able to bind to a protein inside the host known as receptor. (Single letter codes for amino acids are shown in the chart against each amino acid) Yor (i) A student succeeded in replacing the amino acid Y at 35th position with R. Does the toxin will still bind to its receptors? Justify (ii) How many amino acid residues are represented in this illustration? (iii) A student heats the cobrotoxin and again bring back to normal temperature. Does the venom still works? Justify your reasoning (iv) What is the protein structure marked as 'X' ? How you can further stabilize this structure?
