Question

please answer accuratly thank u!

2-5 The actions of androgens such as testosterone and dihydrotestosterone are mediated via the androgen receptor (AR) protein, a ligand-dependent nuclear transcription factor and member of the steroid hormone nuclear receptor family. Given its widespread expression in many cells and tissues, the AR has a diverse range of biological actions including important roles in the development and maintenance of the reproductive and musculoskeletal systems. Body-building products that contain selective androgen receptor modulators, or SARMs, have not been approved by the FDA and are associated with serious safety concerns. Fig. 1: Androgen Receptor Structure Considering your knowledge from Chapter 3 of your text book, answer the following questions: A: What is the name of the type of model used for the protein in Fig. 1?

Explanation / Answer

The type of model used for the protein in figure 1 is named as Homology model. It refers to constructing an atomic-resolution model of the "target" proteinfrom its amino acid sequence and an experimental three-dimensional structure of a related homologous protein
