since we know that a fair number of diseases (krutzfield-jacob and all those prion diseases, and probably alzhiemers) are caused by protiens changing the geometry (which is what chirality basically means, right) of other proteins, has anyone lookied into developing, isomers (again, sorry if thats the wrong word, i mean different structures) of proteins that change the harmfull structure of the protein back to the useful structure?
My limited knowledge: Most everything in biochem is lock and key fit, and sucks how exponential mutated growths are. Some way research needs to find something that attaches to the prion to stop it inducing other brain tissue to fold. These proteins sequences can be 1000's if very complex maybe 10,000 long, with substituent groups. It could be one group on the protein as the culprit, or could be a combo at different sites. These arn't straight chains either, they are globs. Thats a mess of a problem to solve.
Chiral focus on a micro level, when a carbon has 4 different groups. This stuff is more of a glob 3D change on a macro level.
hopefully I used macro, and micro right haha
