Concept explainers
(a)
To explain: Why the structure of amino-butyric acid is suitable substitution for Cys residue and under what circumstances it would not be suitable.
Introduction:
Protein is an essential bio-molecule which also serves as a building block of body. It helps in growth and development of the body. It is involved in the formation of hair, skin, muscle and connective tissue. The proteins are of four types: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.
(b)
To determine: The reasons to predict that a protein synthesized, denatured, and folded in this manner (dissolving it in 6 M guanidine HCl, and then allowed it to fold slowly by dialyzing away the guanidine against a neutral buffer) would not be active.

(c)
To determine: The finding that tells about the role of disulfide bonds in native HIV protease molecule.

- Show the fate of the hydrogen on carbon-2 of glucose.arrow_forwardImagine that aldolase can react with the seven carbon molecule Sedoheptulose-1,7-bisphosphate (below). Use the mechanism to predict the two products generated.arrow_forwardShow the mechanisms of PGK and PFK-1. How are they different?arrow_forward
- Show the fate of the proton on the 4-Oxygen molecule of F-1,6-BP.arrow_forwardSodium borohydride (NaBH4) is a potent inhibitor of aldolase. It is known to ONLY inhibit theenzyme when it is complexed with substrate. Treatment of the enzyme alone has no effect.What is the mechanism for this inhibition?arrow_forwardA non-hydrolysable ATP (AMPPNP - below) is ingested by a graduate student on a dare. Whateffects would you anticipate on his metabolism?arrow_forward
- Show the mechanism for the acid-catalyzed formation of an [α-1,6] glycosidic linkagebetween two molecules of α-D-glucopyranose. Please sketch the structure and use arrows showing electron flow!arrow_forwardI am a Biochemistry student and I am confused on how to analyze FRAP Analysis using Excel Spread Sheets.
