You are researching a cytoplasmic protein associated with a nerve disorder. The native form of the enzyme appears to be globular protein; however, when a sample of the purified protein is treated with a chemical that reduces disulfide bonds,
the enzymatic activity decreases dramatically and multiple globular proteins can be detected in the sample. What does this tell you about the protein?

E) The primary and secondary structure of the protein depends on disulfide bonds.
The prevalence rate of tuberculosis in one particular county in Texas is 7/1000 people, while the incidence rate for 2011 is 2/1000 people. Analyze this data and summarize the situation.

Prevalence rate is higher than incidence rate because the number of people still alive with tuberculosis is higher because of better treatments. D. Prevalence rate and incidence rate cannot be determined for the same disease.
