Alpha helices are a helix-helix structure

1

Which of the following best describes an alpha helix?

1

Helix-helix packing can be shown by highlighting every _ residues?

1

Alpha helices must follow particular rules when packing together

1

Describe the ridges of the following proteins

1

The angle between two packed helices depends on which type of ridges pack into which troughs.

1

The troughs of one alpha helix will be filled by the 'backbone' of another

1

Beta sheets twist slightly _ each other

1

The angle between two beta sheets is approx....?

1

Where in the plane is each color (ignore green)

1

The strands of beta sheets are held together by backbone hydrogen bonding

1

The angle between sheets is determined by their...

1

How are the aa side chains arranged in beta sheets?

1

When an alpha helix and a beta sheet pack together, the groove the beta sheet lies in tends to be made by amino acids how far apart?

1

Name three things that can be used in protein folding to encourage correct folding?

1

Negative Free Energy is less favorable

1

Concerning entropy- less order is more favorable

1

Which of the following is the equation for the free energy change of a folded protein

1

Hydrogen bonds are the least common type of bond in proteins

1

What's the enthalpy change of a H bond formation?

1

A hydrophobic core in water is entropically favorable

1

Why is hydrophobic cores in water _favorable?

1

Why do hydrophobic proteins fold?

1

As water ordering decreases, entropy decreases

1

Why is energy needed to maintain the folding of a (hydrophobic) protein (i.e. from hydrogen bonds etc.)?

1

Heating denatures a protein because it breaks the bonds required to offset the negative change in entropy caused by the protein folding i.e, it makes ΔH less negative
