Question

Crystallisation is not required due to the advent of which of the following new technique.
a) X-ray crystallography
b) NMR
c) Sanger’s method of protein sequencing d) Edman’s method of protein sequencing

Answer 1

Answer:

x Ray crystallography

Answer 2

Answer:

Crystallisation is not required due to the advent of X-ray crystallography

Explanation:

In earlier methods of finding the sequence of amino acids in proteins. Proteins consist of a long chain of amino acids. These amino acids can be essential or non-essential.

Earlier the method that was used was breaking down of the protein structure into respective amino acids and the particular amino acid was determined by using Edman's method and dangers method. However, now X-ray crystallography is used to find the molecular structure of substance directly.
