Left handed twist
-
Length
-
Amino acid side chains
Questão 13
Questão
How are the aa side chains arranged in beta sheets?
Responda
-
The amino acid residue side chains of one beta sheet pack between the spaces between side chains on the adjacent beta sheet
-
The amino acids on one beta sheet will have no residue where the other beta sheet has one (they're removed)
-
The amino acids with residues attached will alternate between beta sheets
Questão 14
Questão
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?
Questão 15
Questão
Name three things that can be used in protein folding to encourage correct folding?
Responda
-
Non-native interactions (as long as they are reversible)
-
Pinching (isolates subdomains for folding)
-
The removal of a domain for folding, before it's re-addition
Questão 16
Questão
Negative Free Energy is less favorable
Questão 17
Questão
Concerning entropy- less order is more favorable
Questão 18
Questão
Which of the following is the equation for the free energy change of a folded protein
Responda
-
ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
-
ΔH = ΔG x TΔS
-
TΔS = ΔH + ΔG
Questão 19
Questão

Questão
What's the enthalpy change of a H bond formation?
Responda
-
-4 to -30 kJmol
-
-4 to -3 kJmol

Questão 21
Questão
A hydrophobic core in water is entropically favorable
Questão 22
Questão
Why is hydrophobic cores in water _favorable?
Responda
-
They make the water molecules more ordered, decreasing entropy
-
They make the water molecules less ordered, increasing entropy
Questão 23
Questão
Why do hydrophobic proteins fold?
Responda
-
Folded proteins have a reduced surface area, leading to a reduced number of organised water molecules, leading to a lower decrease of entropy
-
Folded proteins have a reduced surface area, leading to a reduced number of organised water molecules, leading to a lower increase of entropy
Questão 24
Questão
As water ordering decreases, entropy decreases
Questão 25
Questão
Why is energy needed to maintain the folding of a (hydrophobic) protein (i.e. from hydrogen bonds etc.)?
Responda
-
Because the unfolded state of the protein is more entropically favorable than the folded state
-
Because though the folded protein is more entropically favorable, it's folding decreases entropy, which is unfavorable
-
So energy must be produced to maintain the fold
Questão 26
Questão
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
Questão 27
Questão
In protein folding, ΔH is negative, and -TΔS is positive
