Chapter 5, Problem 12TYU

WRITE ABOUT A THEME: ORGANIZATION Proteins, which have diverse functions in a cell, are all polymers of the same kinds of monomers—amino acids. Write a short essay (100–150 words) that discusses how the structure of amino acids allows this one type of polymer to perform so many functions.

Protein structure is directly related to function. Which of the following statements is true regarding this concept ? Polypeptide backbone -CH2 – CH, – CH2- CH2- NH3 0-c- CH - CH2 lonic bond Hydrogen ! bond C- NH2 Disulfide linkage CH CH2 HạC CH3 CH3 H3C CH -CH2 Hydrophobic interactions A. The primary structure consists of the DNA sequence. The secondary and tertiary structures are dependent on interactions between the DNA and RNA polymerase. Mutations resulting in changes one or more bases has the potential to destroy the structure, and therefore the function, of the protein. B. The primary structure consists of the amino acid sequence. The secondary and tertiary structures are dependent on interactions between the amino acid side chains. Mutations resulting in changes one or more amino acids has the potential to destroy the structure, and therefore the function, of the protein. C. The primary structure consists of the DNA sequence. The secondary structure consists of the amino acid…
Describe the four levels of protein structures. Include information about the bond between amino acids, and for the third level of protein structure, discuss the other types of bond found there. Make sure you include hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and an example of covalent bonding. Explain why not all proteins form a quaternary structure.
Select the true statements about protein secondary structure. In an a-helix, the side chains are located on the outside of the helix. The secondary level of protein structure refers to the spatial arrangements of short segments of the protein. In a B-pleated sheet, the side chains are located between adjacent segments. Peptide bonds stabilize secondary structure. The x-helix is held together by hydrogen bonds between the amide N-H and C=O groups. Incorrect
