PDB+protein+modeling+activity

Run "Protein Workshop" on your protein of interest, and use it to answer the following questions:
 * Go to the Protein Data Bank's "Structural View of Biology" page: []
 * Click through the categories and select a protein that is interesting to you.
 * Use the "Detailed View" and "Molecule of the Month Article" links on the PDB site to answer the following questions. Write your answers in a Word document and submit it below.
 * 1) What is the protein's PDB ID?
 * 2) In what year, and in what journal, was this protein's structure published?
 * 3) What is the name of the technique or technology used to determine the protein's structure? (see PubMed Abstract)
 * 4) What organism was this protein isolated from?
 * 5) What is the name of the gene that codes for this protein?
 * 6) What is the length of the protein?
 * 7) What function or role does the protein play in the cell?
 * 8) Does it play a particularly important role in any organs or body systems? Which one(s)?
 * 9) What are some other molecules this protein interacts with in the cell?
 * 1) Primary structure:
 * The start of the protein's primary structure is colored blue, and the end is orange. Can you follow the whole chain from beginning to end
 * Click the little + sign next to Chain A. What are the first ten amino acids in this protein's primary structure?
 * 1) Secondary structure:
 * Click on "Conformation type" and then on "Enact". How many alpha helices do you see? How many beta pleated sheets? (A "sheet" is made of multiple "strands".)
 * 1) Tertiary structure:
 * Capture an image of your protein by clicking "File" --> Save Image. Save it as a PNG--not a TIFF file.
 * Get images of the following, and paste them into your Word document:
 * Your protein (ribbons) shown from at least 2 different angles
 * The bonds & atoms (no ribbons)
 * Surfaces 100% opaque
 * Zoom in on any miscellaneous molecules (if present) and show how they interact with the protein
 * 1) <span style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Quaternary structure:
 * Does your protein have quaternary structure? How do you know?
