PPT-Protein Structure/Function

C483 Spring 2013 1 Proteins segments which fold first can promote the folding of other sections of the protein into the native conformation by a process known as A renaturation B stabilization. Why do we want to know protein structure?. Classification. Functional Prediction. What is protein structure?. Primary - chains of amino acids. Secondary - interaction between groups of amino acids. Tertiary - the organization in three dimensions of all the atoms in a polypeptide. SUMI SINGH. (sxs5729). Levels of Protein Structure. 2. Thanks to: Frank . Lloyd . Wright for graphics. WOOD, BRICK etc. . . material/building blocks . AMINO ACIDS. *****************************************************************. Sequence:. Edman degradation. Mass spectrometry. Secondary structure:. Circular Dichroism. FTIR. Tertiary, quaternary structure:. NMR. X-ray crystallography. Protein sequencing approaches depend on what is known and what is the goal. C483 Spring 2013. 1. Which . statement is false about a globular protein that performs its biological function as a single independent polypeptide chain?. A. ) Its tertiary structure is likely stabilized by the interactions of amino acid side chains . Gustavo Caetano - . Anolles. 1. PowerPoint by Casey . Hanson. Protein Sequence, Structure, and Function | Gustavo Caetano - Anolles | 2015. Exercise. In this exercise we will be doing the following:. Alexey Onufriev, . Virginia Tech. www.cs.vt.edu/~onufriev. Proteins play key roles in a living system. Three (out of many many) examples of protein functions. Catalysis:. Almost all chemical reactions in a living cell are catalyzed by protein enzymes.. PROTEIN STRUCTURE. To understand how drugs interact it is necessary to understand their structure.. Proteins have four level of structure:-. PRIMARY . SECONDARY. TERTIARY. QUATERNARY. 1.PRIMARY STRUCTURE:-. and Secondary Levels. The . secondary structure . of a protein describes the structure that forms when amino acids form hydrogen bonds between the atoms in the backbone and atoms on the same or another peptide chain.. Sequence:. Edman degradation. Mass spectrometry. Secondary structure:. Circular Dichroism. FTIR. Tertiary, quaternary structure:. NMR. X-ray crystallography. Protein sequencing approaches depend on what is known and what is the goal. Dr. . Shaimaa. . Munther. . Learning Outcomes - Proteins. Define the levels of protein conformation and to indicate the role of weak interactions.. Illustrate how protein structure relates to protein function using examples.. Proteins are biopolymers, made of the 20 L- . α. -amino acids linked by peptide bonds.. Polypeptide backbone is a repeating sequence of. . N-C-C-N-C-C…. The side chain or R group is not a part of the backbone or the peptide bond.. Prediction . Wang Yang. 2014.1.3. Outline. Molecular. . Co-evolution . phenomenon.
