Chapter 32, Problem 11P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for use of alpha helices in the membrane-spanning for the G-protein-coupled receptors needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction :

The structure of alpha-helix is a polypeptide chain like a coiled rod giving a spring like structure. These polypeptide chains are bonded together with hydrogen bonds. The beta strands are responsible for bonding in beta-pleated sheets where they linked in lateral manner with hydrogen bonds resulting formation of a backbone. The number of amino acids involved in beta strand or chain formation is from 3-10.

Biochemistry What is the process of "transamination" in either the muscles or the liver, that involves keto acid or glutamic acid? Please explain how the steps work. Thank you!
Biochemistry Please help. Thank you What is the importance of glutamic acid in the metabolism of nitrogen from amino acids? (we know therole; it’s used to remove the nitrogen from amino acids so that the remaining carbon skeleton can bebroken down by the “usual” pathways, but what is the important, unique role that only glutamicacid/glutamate can do?)
