Answer:

The given blank can be filled with interferons.

Explanation:

The signaling molecules or the proteins that get discharged by the cell infected by the virus to protect the adjacent cells by stimulating a safeguarding defense mechanism are termed as interferons.  

The mentioned proteins obstruct the proliferation of viruses and thus helps the cell in getting rid of the infection. These molecules also assist in stimulating the macrophages and the natural killer cells.

A particular protein largely lacks both secondary and tertiary structure. which factor, if any, is mainly responsible for the re
NemiM [27]

Entropy, is mainly responsible for the resting state of this protein.

Hydrogen bonds, disulfide bonds, and dipole-dipole interactions produce the complicated folding styles seen in secondary and tertiary structure. however, if a protein does not have these elements of structure, it'll undertake a kingdom in which its entropy is maximized.

Secondary shape is determined through hydrogen bonding within the amino acid chain backbone. Tertiary structure is the entire protein's form, decided Entropy Interplay and hydrophobic forces. The tertiary shape of a protein is the 3 dimensional shape of the protein. Disulfide bonds, hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and hydrophobic interactions all affect the form a protein takes.

The nonpolar amino acids have formed the nonpolar center of the protein, weak van der Waals forces stabilize the protein. furthermore, hydrogen bonds and ionic interactions between the polar, charged amino acids make a contribution to the tertiary structure.

Disclaimer: your question is incomplete, please see below for complete question

A. Entropy

B. Hydrogen bonds between amino acid residues

C. Dipole-dipole interactions

D. None of the above
