B) All enzymes are proteins: Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up reactions by creating a second pathway for the reaction to take place. They are protein molecules that come in a variety of shapes and sizes, each serving as a catalyst for various reactions....
Quantitative structure-activity methods attempt to empirically correlate the binding data with various features of the chemical structures of the drug molecules, so that one can predict the binding of novel compounds and thus aid the search for improved drugs. A common feature of nearly all these ...
