Question
Chapter 24, Problem 17P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Interactions in LDL receptor should be identified.
Concept Introduction:
LDL receptor has five domains. N terminal LDL binding domain contains seven cysteine rich repeats referred as R1 to R7. Next epidermal growth factor repeats and ß propeller module can be found. Those segments are followed by O-linked oligosaccharide, a membrane spanning segment and another segment extended towards the cytosol. LDL particles bind with R4 and R5 cysteine repeats. At low pH, the LDL receptor polypeptide folds so that ß propeller domain is associated with R4 and R5 displacing the LDL particle. These two repeats contain two loops connected by 3 disulfide bonds. Second loop of each repeat have Asp and Glu acidic residues and acts as a Ca2+ binding site.

Consider the role of Histidine in the Serine protease mechanism and sketch a plot showing
the predicted pH profile of chymotrypsin which has a pH optimum of approximately ~8. The pk,
for the His in the catalytic triad is 7.3 in free chymotrypsin which increases to greater than 8 with
a bound peptide. Be sure to label the plot axes and indicate the pka of His on the plot,
under certain conditions alpha helical bundles can form and can facilitate protein insertion into membranes. discuss how they coudl achieve this at a biochemical level?
