(b) Most globular proteins are denatured and lose their activity when briefly heated to 65 8C. However, globular proteins that c

ontain multiple disulfide bonds often must be heated longer at higher temperatures to denature them. One such protein is bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI), which has 58 amino acid residues in a single chain and contains three disulfide bonds. On cooling a solution of denatured BPTI, the activity of the protein is restored. What is the molecular basis for this property?

Answer:

Explanation:

The higher temperature is the factor which is responsible for the process of denaturation of proteins in which the breaking down of hydrogen, disulphide bonds and destabilization occurs. This process breaks up the bond between the polypeptides.

The bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor comprises of 58 amino acids this consists of the disulphide bonds which are destroyed on heating as a result of this the inhibitor becomes inactive. But on cooling it comes to the original form as the internal structure starts making hydrogen and disulphide bonds again. Thus the activity of the BPTI again gets restored.

Three effects of constipation​

1. Infections

If you end up being constipated, you are probably having trouble passing a stool. If the stool has become dry and hard from lack of moisture, it could make having a bowel movement painful. When the rectum is stretched out to accommodate the painful stool, the rectum could stay open resulting in rectal prolapse. This could lead to an infection.

 

2. Bad breath

One unusual side effect is bad breath. You may wonder how a condition that is occurring at one end of your body could affect the complete opposite end of your body, but it can. What happens is the gasses and toxic waste that are building up because you are constipated rises up and as it goes throughout the body and it usually ends up in your mouth.

3. Lowered ratio of healthy bacteria

Healthy bacteria in your body is called flora. The purpose of flora is to help with the production of vitamins and helps with your immune system. When you are constipated the amount of flora in your intestine is reduced putting you at risk for illness and infection.

4. Colon cancer

The colon is meant to store a couple of pounds of stools. If you become constipated, there is a buildup of stools and puts the colon at risk for ripping. When the colon becomes strained because it is overloaded, it strains the inner membrane. Ruptures and possible infections occur and it could lead to colon cancer.

 

5. Increased toxins

Your skin will show on the outside what your body is going through on the inside. If you become constipated, you will suffer an excess of toxins in your body. The skin, your largest organ, has to work overtime to get rid of these toxins. If your skin looks less than glowing you need to address the issues that are going on inside of your body before you start looking for a new facial cream.

Paha777 [63]
<span>The effect of this medication hinders pile production as well as mechanical digestion. Proteins are unable to break down due to pepsin with the addition of lipase being unable to break down fats. This encourages stomach cells to create more mucus in order to compensate.</span>
