During protein folding in an aqueous environment, a nonpolar isoleucine residue is successfully buried in the hydrophobic core. If site-directed mutagenesis changes this isoleucine to a polar glutamine, what must occur for the protein to maintain its stable, folded state?

In Golden Gate Assembly, if the BsaI recognition sequences on an insert are mistakenly designed to face outward, the recognition sequences remain permanently attached to the insert after cleavage. What is the practical outcome of this one-pot reaction?

The polypeptide backbone of any protein is inherently highly polar and hydrophilic. Despite this, transmembrane receptors and transport channels successfully span the highly hydrophobic lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Briefly explain the structural “shielding mechanism” that allows this to occur (maximum 3 sentences).
