Chapter 24, Problem 22P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Cytoplasmic proteins lack disulfide bonds, but extracellular proteins contain them.

Concept introduction:

Proteins are the biomolecules that are composed of the amino acid residues. There are a variety of functions performed by the proteins, they are catalyzing reactions, DNA replication, hormonal functions, proving the structure to cells, and cellular transportation. Based on the structure, proteins are of the following type: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.

Options: A)  has a repeating structure of 3 amino acids such as Gly-Pro-X B)  crosslinks with numerous other elastin peptides to make an elastic fiber C)  is physically attached to the smooth endoplasmic reticulum D)  is physically attached to ribosomes E)  is rich in hydrophobic residues
Alpha-helix of proteins, its characteristics. Draw a diagram of the arrangement of amino acids in the alpha helix. Examples of proteins formed mainly by this structure.
R V. Phospholipids are the main structural lipids that comprise cellular and organellar membranes. One abundant phospholipid in bacterial cell membranes is phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), which has a generic structure shown on the right. Note that R1 R and R2 are representative alkyl chains of attached fatty acids, each having about 16 – 20 carbon atoms. a) The overall net charge in one PE molecule is: -2 -1 0 +1 +2 CH₂ Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) -CH H₂C. b) The glycerophosphate backbone in PE is a: D-enantiomer c) The fatty acids are attached to PE via which type of bond? amine L-enantiomer racemic NH3 amide ester ether d) Draw the commonly used cartoon representation of one phospholipid molecule. Label the hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts.
