Common proteins are polymers of 20 different amino acids. How many amino acids are necessary for a protein polymer to have at least as many possible different sequences as there are atoms in the Universe?
(There are about 2 × 1056 moles of atoms in the Universe.)

Respuesta :

Answer:

This way, for 20^2.55 = 2109 amino acids are require to have 2*1056 number different sequences.

Explanation:

Protein should contain 2*1056 of different sequence so

2*1056 = 20^x

 Log (2*1056) = log 20^x

3.3246 = (x ) * 1.3010

X= 2.555
