a - Amino acids
37
a protein with sugars as prosthetic groups
glycoprotein
38
a neutral molecule with equal numbers of positive and negative charges
Zwitterion
39
a nonprotein group required in order for a protein to function
prosthetic group
40
What interactions are responsible for maintaining quaternary protein structure?
ionic bridges hydrogen bonding van der Waals forces disulfide bonds
41
A protein that transports materials across the cell membrane or throughout the body.
transport protein
42
an amino acid that can be synthesized by the body
nonessential amino acid
43
How does the primary structure of a protein determine its three-dimensional shape?
The primary structure determines the locations of the R groups along the protein chain.
44
Why are hydrogen bonds so important to protein structure? (2)
It contributes to the stability of the tertiary and quaternary levels of structure. It maintains the secondary structure of a protein.

What is the relationship between pepsin and pepsinogen? (2)
pepsinogen is cleaved in the stomach to produce pepsin pepsin is the active form of the enzyme; pepsinogen is the inactive form of the enzyme
46
What is the purpose of the R groups of the amino acids?
the formation and maintenance of the tertiary and quaternary structures of proteins
