    Molecular Modeling: Does a proline chain fold or tangle up?

    Thanks! I actually want it to be rigid so I'm going to use GSGPSPTPGSG.

    How can I easily remember the complex structures of biomolecules?

    You can look at the SCOP database or CATH database because they show you how to describe structure. It may be a little more detailed than you need though. Search TOPS protein topology as well. It has to do with splitting the protein in domains, layers, betas, alphas, facing up, down, order of...

    Determination of single biomolecules

    I think X-ray crystallography? Or NMR but probably xray. it has to do with determining electron density. and there are a bunch of functions like coulombs law i think and something called the electrostatic constant that can be used that's needed for coulombs law to map isopotential lines.

    Molecular Modeling: Does a proline chain fold or tangle up?

    It's probably a stupid question but is it possible to attach a long proline chain - 8 or more residues - at the C terminal of a protein and have it connect to another protein and not affect folding? It's for a project and it's not actually necessary but I have to make a protein that binds to an...

    Schools 2.89 current GPA from good college?

    Thanks. When you say 3.0, is that 3.0 or 3.00? do they round anything above 2.95 to a 3.0?

    Schools 2.89 current GPA from good college?

    I'm an undergrad at RPI and I currently have a 2.89 GPA. I'm a senior so I'm currently applying for jobs. Haven't gotten any replies so far. I majored in Bioinformatics. Is it possible for me to get a job in this field? I will only have a 2.99 by the time I graduate and I think by that time, all...

    100(1-alpha) Confidence Interval for μ when μ and σ^2 are unknown

    I'm supposed to find the 100(1 - alpha) confidence interval for μ

    100(1-alpha) Confidence Interval for μ when μ and σ^2 are unknown

    Homework Statement X1,...Xn is a random sample from N(μ, σ^2) Homework Equations Estimator of μ maybe? a1 + a2 = a a1 = a2 = a/2 (x-μ)/(σ/√n)~N(0,1) ((x-μ)/σ)^2~Chi square(1) The Attempt at a Solution I tried to replace μ with its estimator xbar but that gives me 0.

    Joint pmf of 2 binomially distributed random variables

    I hope I wrote that correctly but I'm trying to find the joint. I heard it was impossible from someone. X = A/R A~BIN(n1, p1) R~BIN(n2, p2) I know I shouldn't be using the Jacobian method for Discrete distributions but I have to do it anyway. Anyone know?

    Mathematical Statistics Xi~N(6,25) P[1.860 < 3(Xbar - 6]/S

    Homework Statement Let X1, X2, ..., X9 be a random sample from a normal distribution, Xi~N(6,25), and denote by Xbar and S^2 the sample mean and sample variance. Use the standard statistical table for normal distribution. Homework Equations E[S^2] = δ^2 = 25 S^2 = (ƩXi^2 -...

    Solving y + y = 2/sin(x) using Undetermined Coefficients

    Homework Statement y" + y = 2/sin(x) solve for y Homework Equations I tried to use variation of parameters to solve this but I don't know how to check it. The Attempt at a Solution y = -2xcosx + (constant)cosx + 2ln(sin(x))sinx + (constant)sinx How do I do this using...
