1
ϕ
N-C(alpha) bond angle, limited bc it brings sidechains too close together
2
kcat from v eq
V=(Kcat[E][s])/(Km+[s])
3
zymogen
inactive form of enzyme
4
alpha helixes have a non-polar residue every 3rd or 4th residue bc
every 3rd to 4th is on the same side, gives hydrophobic effect
5
ψ
C-C(alpha) bond angle, limited bc it brings sidechains too close together
6
Regular secondary structures allow the polypeptide chain to fold so that is can satisfy its __________ requirements and minimize ___________.
H-bonding, Steric strain
7
Parallel vs antiparallel beta sheet
parralel- N terminus and c terminus line up. Antiparallel- N and c terminus alternate
8
Regular secondary structure
alpha helix and beta sheet
9
irregular secondary structure
loops, hairpins, anything other than alpha helix or beta sheet
10
globular proteins
water soluble, compact and highly folded
11
fibrous proteins
stiff elongated conformation, forms fibers
12
micelles, bilayer, vesicle
micelle=cirlce of amphipaths, bilayer=2 sheets, vesicle= cone
13
pH equation
pH=-log(|H+|)
14
weak acids have low ____ and high _____
Ka, pKa
15
henderson hasselbach
pH=pKa+log(A-/HA)
16
effective buffering range
where a buffer can successfully neutralize pH, flat part of curve
17
blood buffer system
H+ + HCO3(bicarbonate)->H2CO3->H2O + CO2
18
kidney function
excretes acid to reclaim bicarbonate, forms new bicarb through CO2 metabolism
19
pA nucleotide
phosphate on 5' position
20
Ap
phosphate in 3' position
21
dAp
deoxy, sugar on 3'
22
tautomer affect on nucleic acid base pairs
can cause mis-bonding
23
forces stabalizing double helix
vanderwals, h-bonds, hydrophobic effect, ionic interactions
24
AT rich vs GT rich strands
GC rich strands harder to denature do to stacking(not H bonding),
25
bacterial DNA
supercoiling
26
nucleases
hydrolyze amino acids
27
exonuclease
hydrolyze phosphodiester bond on the outsides of the strand
28
endonuclease
hydrolyze phosphodiester bond within the strand, recognize palindromes, sticky vs blunt ends
29
sidechain stereochem
alternate side and whether or not facing page
30
peptide bond rigidity
fairly rigid, some double bond character
31
gly alpha helix destabalization
no stablization from outward facing sidechain
32
Pro alpha helix destabalization
not H bond donor
33
alpha helix polarity
one side is more polar, other side is not
34
motifs
recognizable combos of secondary structure, helix bundle, helix-loop-helix, hairping, beta-sandwhich
35
zinc finger
zinc binds to DNA, motif
36
post translational modifications
acetylation, glycosylation(carbonate), phosphorylation
37
chromatography types
Ion exchange, Affinity, size exclusion
38
isoelectric focusing
buffergradient, sorts by isoelectric point
39
myoglobin
noncovalent structure, oxygen storage, hydrophobic pocket (fits heme into it), pocket fits Fe2+; binds to O2
40
Hemoglobin
treated as dimer of alpha-beta subunits, deoxy R state, Oxy T state, naturally lies towards T state,
41
2,3-BPG
allosteric;2,3-BPG binds to T and locks in place, without Hb O2 affinity is too high
42
Bohr effect
lower pH=greater release of O2, H+ negative allosteric effector, shifts curve to right
43
G-actin
globular monomer, binds atp, hydrolyzes atp when in filament F-actin
44
F-actin
ATP hydrolysis make polymerization favorable, grows faster at + end. Function:cell shape change and movement
45
microtubuoles
globular protein subunits, GTP binding, direcitonal growth,
46
keratin
coiled coil, non-polar AA at 1 and 4 position bind coil together, hard has more sulfur, soft has less due to high Cys residues and disulfide bonds
47
collagen
triple helix, left handed turn, gly packs in middle bc sterics, backbone H bonding, gives strength to connective tissues(cartilage)
48
myosin
motor protein, ATP binding in head, crawls on actin, non processive
49
kinesin
motor protein, processive, atp driven, carrys vesicles
50
oxidoreductase
redox reactions, dehydrogenases, oxidases, peroxidases, etc
51
transferase
2 substrates, moves one group between substrates, transferase etc
52
kinase
transferase for phosphate group
53
hydrolase
hydrolysis, phosphotase, nuclease, protease, peptidase. can hydrolyze carbox. acid derivatives, phosphate derivatives and anhydrides
54
lyase
not redox or hydrolysis, elimination of a group to give a double bond, or addition to a double bond, hydratase, decarboxylase
55
isomerase
rearangement without loss or add. of atoms, racemase, isomerase, mutase
56
ligase
bond formation, atp hydrolysis, synthetase
57
y from pO2
y=O2^n/(K^n+pO2^n)
58
myoglobin p50
2.8 torr
