Regarding the last answer choice, how come both alpha helices and beta sheets aren't denatured when the heat breaks peptide bonds? If heat were to break peptide bonds, wouldn't that affect the primary structure which inevitably affects the more complicated structures?
Where would you expect a polypeptide region Ridge and the amino acid valine, leucine, and isoleucine to be located in a folded polypeptide? explain
Consider a protein in which a negatively charged glutamic acid side chain (pKa=4.2)(pKa=4.2) makes a salt bridge (ion-ion interaction) with a positively charged histidine side chain (pKa=6.5)(pKa=6.5). Do only part B.

- Can you help find the charge for the c terminal?arrow_forward. Assume that some protein molecule, in its folded native state, has one favored conformation. But, when it is denatured, it becomes a "random coil," with many possible conformations. (a) What must be the sign of AS for the change: native → denatured? (b) How will the contribution of AS for native → denatured affect the favorability of the process?

- Peptides and small proteins fold spontaneously in aqueous solution at room temperature. Thus, for a small protein in water, we can say ΔG FOLD < 0. Denoting the unfolded protein as Unf and the folded protein as Fld, we can write the following equation:Unf(aq)--DELTA G FOLD----> Fld(aq)Considering the transition from the unfolded state (in which there are many possible conformations) to the folded state (only one conformation), there is clearly a decrease in the entropy of the protein. However, protein folding is (correctly) described as an entropically driven process.a) Resolve this apparent paradox by identifying the enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy (−TΔS)components involved in protein…arrow_forwardLoop regions play important roles in the secondary structure of protein.

- Can you please help find what the n terminal is?arrow_forwardConsider a protein in which a negatively charged glutamic acid side chain (pKa = 4.2) makes a salt bridge (ion-ion interaction) with a positively charged histidine side chain (pKa = 6.5). Part A Do you predict that this salt bridge will become stronger, become weaker, or be unaffected as pH increases from pH = 7.2 to pH = 7.8? The salt bridge will become stronger. The salt bridge will become weaker. The salt bridge will be unaffected. Submit Part B Previous Answers Correct At pH = 7.2 the glutamic acid (Glu) side chain will carry a charge of ~ -1 (at 3 pH units above the pKa for Glu, the side chain will be almost fully ionized); whereas the histidine (His) side chain will carry a charge of < +0.5 (at pH = pK₂ the charge on His would be +0.5; since pH = 7.2 is above its pKa, it will carry less (+) charge as it becomes more deprotonated). As the pH increase to 7.8, the charge on Glu will remain ~ -1 and the charge on His will decrease; thus, this salt bridge is predicted to become weaker…arrow_forwardDraw a peptide for cys-asn- pro-gly (Using the same format in picture)arrow_forward
