(A) List 4 types of constraints that affect the stability of a-helix formation.
B) Lactase is an enzyme that aids in the digestion of dairy products. It breaks down the substrate, lactose which is a type of sugar only found in milk. Would the lactase enzyme be complementary to its substrate, lactose? Yes or no? If you have selected "no", clearly explain your reasoning and provide an alternative to the interaction between lactose (substrate) and lactase (enzyme) in order for a catalytic reaction to occur.
