- SDS-PAGE gels are useful in determining the molecular weights of proteins; however, the molecular weights of are usually not reliable. proteiSmall molecules are used as inhibitors of protein action - as drugs. They most often do this by blocking the active site within the protein. Potential drugs can be screened computationally to determine if they are strongly bound to the protein. Figure 1 shows a possible conformation of a candidate drug molecule, 4-bromo-2- carboxymethylamide-pyrrole (abbreviation: BCMAP) at the active site of a protein (abbreviation: PR). Figure 2 shows the full protein structure whilst figure 3 shows a known inhibitor of the protein at the site, overlayed with another calculated conformer of BCMAP. (b) Outline how you would identify likely geometries of BCMAP in the binding site of PR. You need to consider different conformers of BCMAP but only the single active site in PR. Explain how you would rank the more probable geometries for comparison to experimental data on known inhibitors (such as in Figure 3). You should comment on any approximations to the protein structure that may be necessary or…In kappa and iota carrageenans, gels are formed through double helical formation of two polysaccharide segments via covalent interactions.
