What is the most important research material in protein bioinformatics? 1. Protein sequence 2. Protein structure 3. Protein-related Software 4. A high-speed computer
A protein's sequence contains its intrinsic properties as a code. Nobel laureate scientist, C. B. Anfinsen proved it through experiments. Unlike sequence, since structures are man-made and obtained under different laboratory conditions, they may contain human error. Further, unlike nucleic acid, to date, the protein-folding code is unknown. So, in my opinion the study of protein sequence is primary. It is better if one can include structure study with it. But little can be said about this...

How can I keep bronchial epithelial cell alive, while retaining the effect of PM exposure?
Objective of the study: Evaluate whether normal bronchial epithelial cells acquire invasiveness following exposure to particulate matter. Initial approach: Expose the BEAS2B cell line to PM10 at concentrations of 50ug and 75ug for 48 hours. Subsequently, perform a wound healing assay and an invasion assay using matrigel. Problem encountered: Post exposure, a significant number of cells died, resulting in inadequate cell viability. This has hindered our ability to observe if the non-malignant...

Why do cancer treatment options (chemotherapies + radiations) have outcome failure rates of 90% (+/-5) for solid tumors?
Despite seven decades of basic science, epidemiological and animal studies or clinical trials on cancer research and therapy, why cancer treatment options (chemotherapies + radiations) have outcome failure rates of 90% (+/-5) for solid tumors, according to governmental and private organizations. Please select your answer among the followings: 1. Need more research funding for epidemiological studies and experimental models of tumors and clinical trials. 2. Cancer is too many (100, 200...
Pings FAQ
What is a Ping?
A Ping is a single science-based question. The question comes from a fellow SciPinion Expert who is seeking input from the expert community. All participation in this service (i.e. asking or answering questions) is voluntary and anonymous if you prefer.
Can I post a Ping?
Yes, all SciPinion Experts are able to ask questions for the expert community to answer, provided you have Ping Credits. All Experts start with 3 Ping Credits (i.e., can ask 3 questions), and have the opportunity to earn more (e.g., by answering Pings from other experts, applying to panel opportunities).
Can I sponsor a Paid Ping?
Yes, please contact SciPinion if you would like to sponsor a Paid Ping.
What do I get for answering a Ping?
By answering a question from a fellow SciPinion Expert you earn 1 Ping Credit, which allows you to sponsor your own Ping (e.g., for every question you answer, you can ask your own question)
You also receive the satisfaction of helping your fellow experts and supporting the scientific community.
