3.3 Flashcards
When the bonds in a protein break causing it to unravel in a permanent way.
Denaturation.
The sequence of amino acids in a protein is its ________.
Primary structure.
The angle and plates of peptide bonds.
Secondary structure.
The shape and configuration in 3d space would be what.
Tertiary structure.
The association of several protein chains in a row is the _________.
Quatranary structure.
Hydrophobic animo acids will ________ to try to get away from water.
Group up.
Why would a hydrophobic amino acid getting switched out for a hydrophilic amino acid mess up the entire structure of the protein.
Even if one amino acid is wrong it can cause every single aligning amino acid to missalign and denaturate the protein.
Hydrophilic amino acids link with other bonds to _______ the proteins.
Fold/ Shape
Acidic and Basic side chains can conduct charge in the protiens.
