3. Why are celluloses often used as supports to separate large biologically active proteins?

3. Which best describes the contribution of tertiary (3’) structure of to the native conformation of polypeptides and proteins: a) Structure that results from intrachain interactions of amino acid side chains b) Structure that results from interchain interactions of amino acid side chains c) Structure that results from base pairing d) Structure that results from the linear sequence of amino acids from beginning to end of molecule

4. Explain and draw a representative picture of the four levels of protein structure. How are they defined and what bonds keep them together? ? What effect does the a

1. Is there more than one way to fold a protein, given the conflicting demands of the different "R" groups and the protein existing in a watery environment? 2. Explain what an R group is. 3. Compare the backbone of a polypeptide with that of a nucleic acid. 4. Proteins perform critical functions in all of our cells. Without proteins, life wouldn’t exist. Think of some specific proteins and describe what function they perform.  5. Explain the difference between secondary and tertiary protein structures.
