Protein Structures and Bonds

Question 1

protein structures

Answer 1

primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary
- synthesized in rough er and golgi aparatus

Question 2

primary protein structure

Answer 2

its linear sequence of amino acids
- synthesized on rough ER

Question 3

secondary protein structure

Answer 3

the primary folding of the amino acid chain and becomes a polypeptide chain which consists of the chain folded into alpha helices and beta pleated sheets

Question 4

tertiary protein structure

Answer 4

the conformation of a protein which is the three dimensional folding pattern of the protein
- which is unique to each protein
- folds are held together by intramolecular forces

Question 5

quaternary protein structure

Answer 5

protein consisting of more than one tertiary protein combined

Question 6

structural proteins

Answer 6

extended and strand like proteins that are insoluble in water, very stable, providing mechanical support and great tensile strength to the bodies tissue

Question 7

functional proteins

Answer 7

compact and spherical in shape, soluble in water, chemical active molecules

Question 8

enzymes and protein relation

Answer 8

all enzymes are proteins but not all proteins are enzymes
-enzymes catalyze the use of other proteins to speed up a process

Question 9

ionic bonds

Answer 9

transfer electrons

Question 10

hydrogen bonds

Answer 10

are the weakest bonds
- they hold base pairs of DNA strands

Question 11

covalent bonds

Answer 11

share electrons
- 2 forms: glycosidic and peptide bonds

Question 12

glycosidic bond

Answer 12

bonds carbohydrates and saccharides
- the formation is known as dehydration synthesis which is when a water molecule is released
- hydrolysis is the breaking of the bond which happens when a water molecule is added

Question 13

peptide bond

Answer 13

they join together amino acids for the formation of a protein
