What primarily determines the secondary and tertiary structures of a protein?
Which of the following amino acids would you expect to find more often near the center of a folded globular protein? Which ones would you expect to find more often exposed to the outside? explain your answers. Ser, Ser-p (a Ser residue that is phosphorylated), Leu, Lys, Gln, His, Phe, Val, Ile, Met, Cys–S–S–Cys (two cysteines that are disulfide- bonded), and Glu. Where would you expect to find the most N-terminal amino acid and the most C-terminal amino acid?
