This 44-amino-acid peptide acts as an inhibitor, but I'm not sure what it inhibits. Maybe more cleavage to pepsin?

Why the sequence of codons should be triplet but not doublet or quadraplet?
If we take duplet code for four bases then would be 16 codon which are not enough for 20 amino acids If the code is triplet it will give 64 codons their will be excess of 44 codon and therefore more then one codons are present for same amino acid. The excess will be still greater if more then three letter words are used. In the quardruplet code there will be 256 possibilities which is not possible. It was proved by NIRENBERG, KHORANA & HOLLEY(1968), they used in vitro system for the synthesis of a polypeptide using an artificial mRNA molecule.
What does an arterial oxygen saturation level of 44 mean?
That means the blood (hemoglobin) is 44% saturated with Oxygen. 44% is incompatible with life for a normal human. Normal person should be above 96% under normal condition.
What are the other 44 chromosomes called?
autosomes
How many genes do bacteria have?
Humans share with other organisms (animals and plants)different percentages of genes, for instance, we share about 98 percent of our human genes with chimpanzees, 92 percent with furry mice, and 44 percent with fruit flies.
How many ounces does the human brain weigh?
44 to 48 oz
The triplet code means that 64 codons translate into only 20 amino acids. What are the additional 44 codons used for?
The triplet code means that 64 codons translate into only 20 amino acids. The additional 44 codons are not used for anything, but they are rather a redundancy in the code.
What is the molar weight of pepsin?
There are different forms of pepsin. All around 44 amino acids long. Choose the one you want, determine the amino acid sequence, then add the weight of the acids together. But don't forget to subtract 18 g/mol for each peptide bond (it will be one less than the number of amino acids you have) as the result of loss of a water molecule with the formation of each bond.
What does a woman's extra large convert to numerically?
44
Why is it possible for an amino acid to be specified by more then one kind of codon?
Im pretty sure its "Some codons have the same sequence of nucleotides" It keeps repeating nucleotides over and over in the paragraph in my textbook. Mine just goes "Because there are four different bases, there are 64 possible three-base codons. As you can see [it shows genetic code chart], some amino acids can be specified by more than one codon. So I kind of think it has to do with there being so many possibilites.
What is DL-44 and its importance in soap making?
DL-44 is a "delimer" - lime and scale remover; it is a mixture containing acids, detergents, solvents, etc.

In American women's sizes, an extra large is about a size 16 to 18.

Plasma amino acids?
DefinitionPlasma amino acids is a screening test done on infants that looks at the amounts of amino acids in the blood. Amino acids are the building blocks for proteins in the body.See also:Amino acids - urineInborn errors of metabolismNewborn screening testsAlternative NamesAmino acids blood testHow the test is performedA blood sample is needed. The area (usually the heel) is cleansed with germ-killing solution, and the skin is punctured with a sharp needle or a lancet. The blood collects into a small glass tube called a pipette, or onto a slide or test strip. A bandage may be placed over the area if there is any bleeding.The blood sample is sent to a lab. Chromatography is used to determine the amino acids levels in the blood.How to prepare for the testThe baby should not be fed for 4 hours before the test.See also: Test/procedure preparation - infantHow the test will feelThe needle stick will probably cause the infant to cry.When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain, while others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.Why the test is performedThis test is done to measure the level of amino acids in the blood.An increased level of a particular amino acid is a strong sign that there is a problem with the body's ability to break down (metabolize) that amino acid.The test may also be used to look for decreased levels of amino acids in the blood, which may occur with fevers, inadequate nutrition, and certain medical conditions.Normal ValuesAll measurements are in micromole per liter (micro mol/L). Normal values may vary between different laboratories.

Abnormal results may be due to diet, hereditary problems with the ability of the body to handle the amino acid, or to drug effects.What the risks areRisks associated with having blood drawn are slight:Excessive bleedingFainting or feeling light-headedHematoma (blood accumulating under the skin)Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)Special considerationsScreening infants for increased levels of amino acids can lead to early diagnosis of inborn errors of metabolism. Early treatment for such conditions may prevent complications such as severe mental retardation.

How do you find the median age?
for example you have 7,23,35,53,67 the median age would be the # in the middle 35 however, if you had 7,23,35,53,67,75 > extra # than you do (35+53)/2 which =44 :)
