Based upon your knowledge of protein folding, which of the following statements would you expect to be FALSE: O The native state is the protein conformation with the most negative Gibbs free energy value. O The hydrophobic effect causes non-polar side chains to pack into the interior of a protein away from solvent. O Proteins are likely to try out every possible conformation before folding into the native state. O A protein incubated in hexane (C6H14) is likely to denature and unfold. Detergents can interact with the side chains of valine, leucine and phenylalanine.

Which of the following (could be more than one) would not be a rational explanation for why the three-dimensional structure of a protein is driven and stabilized largely by noncovalent rather than covalent bonds?a) Proteins may be degraded for energy, and if their three-dimensional structures were heldtogether by mostly covalent bonding, this might be too difficult to accomplishb) Proteins will need to be unfolded to cross biological membrane, and if their three-dimensionalstructures were held together by mostly covalent bonding, this might be too difficult toaccomplish.c) Protein function (transport, enzyme catalysis, etc...) may require flexibility in the three-dimensional structure to allow for conformational change, and if protein three-dimensionalstructure were held together by mostly covalent bonding, this might be too difficult toaccomplish.d) All of the answer choices are rational explanations for why the three-dimensional structure of protein is driven and stabilized largely…
In the following diagram of a portion of a protein, label the types of interactions that are shown. What level of protein structure are these interactions producing?
Which of the following statements about protein folding and structure are true? Check all that apply. Chaperones, like the GroEL-ES complex, work by providing a sequestered environment in which proteins can safely explore the conformational space towards productive folding. O Chaperones "know" how to actively fold proteins into their proper final structure. Each protein has its own "assigned" chaperone to assist in its proper folding. O Misfolded proteins are innocuous and readily cleared by the cell. V The native structure of a protein is entirely encoded in its amino acid sequence. Misfolded proteins often aggregate in large structures in the cell. Misfolded proteins are thermodynamically stable versions of a protein.

Describe in no more than ten sentences the four levels of protein structure, and cite the noncovalent force(s) in each.
Which of the following statements best describe(s) the mechanism by which correct protein folding takes place once the misfolded protein binds the open ring of groEL? Select all that apply. The groEL ring closes to isolate the protein and provide enough time for the protein to properly fold on its own. b and d The groEL ring closes to provide a hydrophilic space to isolate the protein and inhibit its aggregation with others until properly folded. The groEL ring closes to isolate the protein and provide steric hindrance that mechanically refolds the protein. The groEL ring closes to isolate the protein and decode the information necessary to achieve the correct three-dimensional structure. None of the above I picked "The groEL ring closes to provide a hydrophilic space..." but it was incorrect..

Our growing understanding of how proteins fold allows researchers to make predictions about protein structure based on primary amino acid sequence data Consider the following amino acid sequence Ile-Ala-His-Thr-Tyr-Gly-Pro-Phe-Glu-Ala-Ala-Met-Cys-Lys-Trp-Glu-Ala-Gln-Pro-Asp-Gly-Met-Glu-Cys-Ala-Phe-His-Arg Where might reverse turns occur? Where might Intrachain disulfide linkages be formed? What will be the secondary structure formed from this sequence? Assuming that this sequence is part of a larger globular protein, indicate the probable location of the following amino acid residues: Asp, Ile, Thr, Ala. Gln, Lys.( Hint: see Hydropathy index)
Imagine the main chain of a protein bends back on itself, so that two amino acid residues R₁ and R₂ come close to each other. Here's what R₁ looks like: -CH- CH₂ CH₂ CH₂ CH₂ 1 NH3 Could R₁ form a salt bridge with R₂ at physiological pH, if R₂ were the right kind of residue? O yes O no If you said R₁ could form a sal bridge with R₂, what would R₂ have to be? 0 If there's only one possibility, write its 3-letter code. If there is more than one possibility, write the 3-letter code of any of them. X ? BEET 号图 Ar
