In the first biological applicativon of bucky ball , chemists at the University of Califorminaat San F Francisoc and Santa Barbra made a discovery in 1993 that could help I designing drugs to rtreat AIDS . The human immunodeficienrcy virus (HIV) that causes AIES reproduces by syntheising a long protein chain , which is cut into smaller segments by an enzymecalled HiV-proteases . ONe way to stop AIDS , then might be to inacivate the enzyme. when the chemists reacted a water-soluble derivative of bucky ball with HIV-protease , they found that itbinds to the portion of th enzyme that would ordinarily clareve the repreouctive protein , preventing the HIV virus from reproducing . Consequently the virus could no bnolgre infect the human cells they had frown in the laboratory . The buycky ball compound itself is not a suitable drug for use against AIDS because of potential side effects and delivery difficaultes , but it does provide a model for the development of such drugs Consider following statements about bucky ball : A , It is also called fullerene B: It is also called Buckministerfullerene C: Bucky tubes (made of fullerenes ) are several times stronger than stel whnires D: Bucky ball is a plastic polymer Select correct statement (s) :
