Day 6 Flashcards
does size of peptide impact importance
no
contain permanently associated chemical components
conjugated proteins
non amino acid part of conjugated protein
prosthetic group
proteins containing lipids
lipoproteins
proteins containing sugars
glycoproteins
proteins containing specific metals
metalloproteins
covalent bonds linking amino acid residues in a polypeptide chain
primary structure
recurring structural patterns
secondary structure
3D folding of polypeptide
tertiary structure
2+ polypeptide subunits
quaternary structure
describes spatial arrangement of the main chain atoms in a segment of a polypeptide chain
secondary structure
common types of secondary structure
alpha helix, beta conformation, beta turn, random coils
how many atoms of the peptide group lie in a single plane
6
what prevents rotation
partial double bond character of c-n peptide bond
simplist arrangement, max number of hydrogen bonds
alpha helix
backbone wound around an imaginary longitudinal axis
alpha helix
