- In the protein adenylate kinase, the C-terminal region has the sequence Val-Asp-Asp-Val-Phe- Ser-Gin-Val-Cys-Thr-His-Leu-Asp-Thr-Leu-Lys The hydrophobic residues in this sequence are presented in boldface type. Use helix wheel to demonstrate this peptide is an amphipathic helix.arrow_forwardPfCRT is found to have 10 peaks on a hydropathy plot given its primary sequence. Researchers also noted that each peak is comprised of about 30 amino acids. The digestive vacuole membrane is 45Å in Plasmodium species. Explain why researchers conclude there are 10 transmembrane helices from these two pieces of data.arrow_forwardGiven the following pKa data for the individual amino acids, estimate the pI for the tripeptide Thr-Asp-Arg.

How would the presence of an Asp side chain affect the pKa of the Lys side chain? Briefly explain your reasoning.

Circle all protecting groups and identify their canonical deprotection conditions.arrow_forwardEF-G is a macromolecular mimic of EF-tu. It's role in translation is to To cause the large subunit of the ribosome to disassociate with the small subunit of the ribosome Bind to the vacant A-site subsequent to peptide bond formation and resolve the hybrid state of the ribosome To recruit the signal recognition particle (SRP) to the ribosome and to facilitate synthesis of membrane proteins O To cause the large subunit to associate with the small subunit of the ribosome Shuttle an amino-acylated tRNA to the A site to initiate the peptidyl transfer reactionarrow_forwardWhat would the following sequence of dodecapeptide M be?

- One of the most common features of anion binding sites is the presence of an a-helical structure. Using a schematic diagram of a helix, describe what you've observed. The direction of the dipole and the N-terminus of the helix should be clearly indicated. Show the (general) base structure of the glutamic acid functional group side chain.arrow_forwardThe diagram to the right illustrates the inter-actions of the amino acid side chains of two a-helical polypeptide strands in a coiled-coil, viewed end-on and projected along the helix axes from the N-terminal to the C-terminal end. Are the macrodipoles of the two a- helices oriented parallel or anti-parallel? For this projec- tion is the positive end of the macro-dipole in the sur- face of the paper or below the surface? f C b g e d a' a d' g b' f'arrow_forwardThe folding of intrinsically disordered proteins is prevented by the presence of Ser, Lys, and Glu residues.
