Questão 29

Questão
The network of regular [blank_start]secondary[blank_end] structures contributes very significantly to the [blank_start]stability[blank_end] of the overall folded protein providing extensive networks of [blank_start]hydrogen[blank_end] bonds in which many consecutive residues are involved. All of the [blank_start]hydrogen[blank_end] bonding capability in the secondary structure of a protein is contributed from the amide nitrogen and carbonyl oxygen of the main chain peptide bond as [blank_start]donor[blank_end] and [blank_start]acceptor[blank_end] respectively. This hydrogen bonding provides much of the stabilising [blank_start]enthalpy[blank_end] which allows the polar backbone amide and carbonyl groups to exist in the very [blank_start]hydrophobic[blank_end] environment in the interior of a folded protein.

Questão 39

Questão
Nearly all polar amide groups are [blank_start]hydrogen[blank_end] bonded to one another in a sheet structure The N-H and C=O groups on the outer sides of the sheets, the edge strands are not H bonded to other strand members. These residues can H bond to [blank_start]water[blank_end], or may pack against polar side chains in perhaps a nearby [blank_start]helix[blank_end]. [blank_start]Parallel[blank_end] sheets are always buried. Anti-parallel sheets are however frequently exposed to solvent and are probably [blank_start]more[blank_end] stable structures than parallel sheets.
Responda
  • hydrogen
  • covalently
  • water
  • substrate
  • helix
  • beta sheet
  • Parallel
  • Anti-parallel
  • more
  • less

Questão 40

Questão
parallel sheets are always separated by another structural element usually [blank_start]helices[blank_end]. beta sheet polypeptide chains are nearly fully extended (unlike helices) with distances between residues being up to [blank_start]3.3[blank_end]Angstroms. beta strands always have a pronounced [blank_start]right[blank_end] handed twist due to steric factors arising from the [blank_start]L-amino[blank_end] acid configuration. [blank_start]Valine[blank_end] and [blank_start]isoleucine[blank_end] are residues more commonly found in sheets. Beta strands can be [blank_start]amphipathic[blank_end] due to the alternating consecutive side chain configuration. These strands are found on the [blank_start]surface[blank_end] of proteins.
Responda
  • helices
  • beta turns
  • 3.3

  • Retinol inhibiting protein
  • Cadherin binding protein
  • Cadherin inhibiting protein

Questão 43

Questão
Here we see retinol binding protein with a distinct [blank_start]beta barrel[blank_end] structure. A large [blank_start]anti-parallel[blank_end] beta [blank_start]sheet[blank_end] curves all the way round with the last strand [blank_start]hydrogen[blank_end] bonded to the first thus forming a closed cylinder. The interior of the cylinder is lined with [blank_start]hydrophobic[blank_end] residues and can accommodate retinol which is [blank_start]non-polar[blank_end].
Responda
  • beta barrel
  • alpha helix
  • anti-parallel
  • parallel
  • sheet
  • turns
  • hydrogen
  • nitrogen
  • hydrophobic

Questão 44

Questão
The simplest secondary structural element is the beta turn and usually involves just [blank_start]four[blank_end] residues. It is very important in allowing compact folding of proteins and is often found connecting the strands of [blank_start]anti-parallel[blank_end] beta sheets. The beat turn comprises a hydrogen bond from the carbonyl oxygen of one residue (n) to the amide N-H of residue [blank_start]n+3[blank_end]. This reverses the direction of the chain. Beta turn are most commonly found on the [blank_start]surface[blank_end] of proteins in contact with the aqueous environment. The tight geometry of the turn means that some amino acids such as [blank_start]glycine[blank_end] are found more commonly in turns than other bulkier groups.
Responda
  • four
  • five
  • anti-parallel
  • parallel
  • n+3
  • n+4
  • surface
  • interior
  • glycine
  • phenylalanine
  • glutamine

Questão 45

Questão
What limits the number and positioning of secondary structural elements
Responda
  • size of R group
  • steric constraints
  • nature of R group
  • Directionality
  • The amount of peptide bonds
