Lecture 3 Flashcards
packing of secondary structural elements
tertiary structure
organization of two or more polypeptide chains within a multisubunit protein
quaternary structure
regularities in local conformations maintained by hydrogen bonds
secondary structures
not all proteins have blank structure
quaternary
protein folding occurs blank
quickly (10^-6 seconds)
errors in protein folding can lead to things like this
alzheimers, cystic fibrosis, mad cow
blank modification can influence folding
posttranslational
protein folding helpers
chaperonins
blank can interfere with folding
temperature
change in dna sequence; amino acid substitution
mutations
the protein must be blank in order to determine the primary structure
purified
amino acid sequence; polymeric chain formed by covalently linked amino acids
primary structure
R group influences the amount of blank
Flexibility
Proline has a blank group instead of amino
Imino
The amino acid proline differs from the other 19
amino acids because its sidechain is attached to the alpha amino group, NOT the alpha carbon.
