Chapter 4, Problem 15BO

(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The protein sequence by using protein database such as UniProt, and also identify the identity of protein.

Introduction:

Protein is a biomolecule which is made of repeating subunits of amino acids. There are four different types of structures of protein referred as primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The identity of the protein by using different portions of amino acid sequences.

Introduction:

Protein is an essential biomolecule which also serves as building block of body. It helps in growth and development of body. It is involved in the formation of hair, skin, muscle and connective tissue.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To find: The information about the protein’s secondary, tertiary and quaternary structure by using database sites such as Protein Data Bank.

Introduction:

The Protein Data Bank is defined as a crystallographic database which is used for identification of three-dimensional structural data of large molecules such as proteins and nucleic acid.

(d)

Summary Introduction

To explain: The cellular function of the protein.

Introduction:

Protein is a biomolecule which is made of repeating subunits of amino acids. There are four different types of structures of protein such as primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary.

Biochemistry Question. Please help solve. Thank you! Based upon knowledge of oxidation of bioorganic compounds and howmuch energy is released during their oxidation, rank the following, from most to least, with respect to how much energy would be produced from each during their oxidation. Explain your placement for each one.
Biochemistry Question.For the metabolism of amino acids what is the first step for theirbreakdown? Why is it necessary for this breakdown product to be transported to the liver? For the catabolism of the carbon backbone of these amino acids, there are 7 entry points into the “standard” metabolic pathways. List these 7 entry points and which amino acids are metabolized to these entry points. Please help. Thank you!
Biochemistry Question. Please help. Thank you.   You are studying pyruvate utilization in mammals for ATP production under aerobic conditions and have synthesized pyruvate with Carbon #1 labelled with radioactive C14.   After only one complete cycle of the TCA cycle, which of the TCA cycle intermediates would be labeled with C14? Explain your answer.   Interestingly, you find C14 being excreted in the urine. How does it get there?
