(Research Problem) The Nature and Roles of Linear Motifs in Proteins In addition to domains and modules, there are other significant sequence patterns in proteins—known as linear motifs—that are associated with a particular function. Consult the biochemical literature to answer the following questions: 1. What are linear motifs? 2. How are they different from domains?. 3. What are their functions? 4. How can they be characterized? 5. There are several papers that are good starting points for this problem. Neduva, V., and Russell, R., 2005. Linear motifs: evolutionary interaction switches.

The Biosynthetic Capacity of Cells The nutritional requirements of Escherichia coli cells are far simpler than those of humans, yet the macromolecules found in bacteria are about as complex as those of animals. Because bacteria can make all their essential biomolecules while subsisting on a simpler diet, do you think bacteria may have more biosynthetic capacity and hence more metabolic complexity than animals?

Assessing the Effect of Temperature on Equilibrium You are studying the various components of the venom of a poisonous lizard. One of the venom components is a protein that appears to be temperature sensitive. When heated, it denatures and is no longer toxic. The process can be described by the following simple equation: There is only enough protein from this venom to carry out two equilibrium measurements. At 298 K, you find that 98% of the protein is in its to.\ic form. However, when you raise the temperature to 320 �.. you find that only 10% of the protein is in its toxic form. Calculate the equilibrium constants for the T to N conversion at these two temperatures. Use the data to determine the H,S, and G for this process.arrow_forwardAnswers to all problems are at (he end of this book.
