Hi Leon,



I would appreciate seeing your powerpoint. I worry too that I haven't prepared my students for detailed, intricate questions and would like to see how others are attacking this aspect of the course. Happy to provide feedback if I can.

How long is a piece of string?

Craig.



Take the molecular mass of said string, then divide by 100 (the approximate average mm of the hypothetical amino acid). This will give you the length of the said string, in amino acid residues !

Ho hum, must take the next chicken entrails reading pd that comes up.

I am not unsupportive of this protein section in Chemistry, and I think it is long overdue, considering the consumer industries in this state of chemical knowledge (ie the biomedical ones). I do hope that we get a conservative, straight down the line exam at the end of the year, because my feeling is that it will take a couple of years to assimilate this new stuff. It is very hard to prepare for any nuanced problems based on the current syllabus descriptions, and I live in fear that I haven't developed the application skills in my students. If anyone wants a copy of my powerpoint, and is prepared to give feedback in case I have missed anything, I am happy to share!

Cheers,
Leon
