The desirability quotient or DQ for methapyrilene is low.  

Methapyrilene refers to an anticholinergic and antihistamine of the pyridine chemical category that was formulated in the initial 1950s. It was traded under the names Histadyl EC and Co-Pyronil.  

It exhibits comparatively strong sedative influences, to the degree that its main application was as a medicine for insomnia in spite of its antihistamine activity.

When neurons "fire," the first thing that happens is that sodium ions enter the cell. this does not require an input of energy.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer;

One can infer that membrane transport proteins are required in order for neurons to fire.

Explanation;

Transport proteins are proteins that transport substances across biological membranes. Transport proteins are found within the membrane itself, where they form a channel, or a carrying mechanism, to allow their substrate to pass from one side to the other.

-Transport proteins transport materials such as; ions such as sodium and potassium; sugars such as glucose; proteins and messenger molecules; and many more. In neurons, they  play a fundamental role in the functioning of nerve cells. These transporters, a third class of membrane transport proteins, move a wide variety of ions and molecules across cell membranes.

A chemical engineer wants to design a novel enzyme that is capable of catalyzing a reaction in a hydrocarbon solvent instead of
aalyn [17]

Answer:

A few obstacles would make it tough to accomplish this objective. In the first place, the polypeptide backbone is characteristically polar. Hardly any proteins would be dissolvable in a non-polar hydrocarbon. Moreover, to keep up the dissolvability of this protein, most of its amino acids would need to contain hydrophobic or non-polar R groups.

Then again, its charged or polar R groups would need to connect with one another or be covered in the core of the protein away from the hydrocarbon solvent. This would put noteworthy requirements on both the idea of the R groups and the structure of the protein that could take part in substrate recognition or catalysis. By and large, this is certainly not a reasonable objective.

What happens during the lytic cycle of a viral infection?
mina [271]
1) Bacteriophage injects its DNA into the host cell
2) The DNA circularises
3) Viral gene activates the host cell's DNA synthetic machinery
4) Rapid reproduction of viral DNA occurs
5) Host makes viral capsomeres, allowing viral assembly to take place
6) Due to the large volume of new bacteriophages inside the host cell, the cell splits (cell lysis), releasing the new bacteriophages
