8. Predict the effect of each of the following environmental changes on the pKa of a glutamate side
chain and explain your logic.
The N-terminus of the protein is brought into the proximity of glutamic acid
A lysine side chain is brought into the proximity of glutamic acid
the glutamic acid side chain is shifted from the outside of the protein to the interior
9. A small protein was completely hydrolyzed and found to contain (in no particular order):
Arg, Cys, Lys, Met, Phe, Thr,
a. Incubation with FDNB generated Sanger Reagent yielded DNP-Lys
b. Incubation with chymotrypsin had no effect on the peptide
c. Incubation with trypsin yielded free arginine and lysine
d. Incubation with cyanobromide yielded a tetrapeptide capable of disulfide bonding.
10. Explain the difference at the molecular level in how temperature and urea denature a protein.
11. Based on the denaturation curve shown here for two separate proteins, A and B:
a. Label the y-axis:
b. Which protein is more stable? Why?
c. Other than urea concentration, what is another
potential parameter for the x-axis?
b) Chaperone Proteins:
c) Protein Domain:
1,0
d) Protein Data Bank:
0.8-
0.6
0.4-
0.2
12. Define the following (note: you my need to use internet resources to do so):
a) Native state:
0.0
@83%
+:
Protein A
A
Protein B
Urea concentration (M)
