Any molecule or ion that is necessary for an enzyme’s function is called a: Cofactor Coreactant Coproduct Bienzyme Both B and C COFACTOR Consider the following protein structure. A) Is the protein globular or fibrous? Explain your response in at least one complete sentence giving at least one (1) piece of evidence in your response. B) Identify at least two (2) types of secondary structure present in the following protein. A) Globular proteins are ball-like in shape, while fibrous proteins are extended. Note the long strands of alpha-helices. B) Point out the two types of secondary structure shown here in this protein (as indicated in
(short response) Hemoglobin is said to be a tetramer. A) What is a tetramer? B) Structurally, a tetramer describes what level of protein organization? Your Answer: A. A tetramer is a protein that has four subunits. Two of the subunits are called alpha subunits while the other two are called beta subunits. B. A tetramer describes the quaternary structure A) Simply it means that hemoglobin has four subunits or four independent polypeptide chains interacting non-covalently. Each protein molecule is composed of two copies each of two different subunits a and b. We say that hemoglobin is a tetramer because it has four polypeptide chains. B) It is describing the quaternary structure, which has two or more independent polypeptide chains that associate with one another to form a quaternary structure.
5 / 5 pts (short response) There are collections of protein structure that fit between true secondary and true tertiary structure. What is the name of the collections of protein structure? Explain this type of structure. Motifs occupy a position between secondary and tertiary. Motifs are particularly stable arrangements of secondary structure, including the connections between them. Motifs are found in a variety of proteins from across all organisms.
5 / 5 pts (Short response) A. Define the primary level of protein structure. B) How do scientists communicate the primary sequence? The primary level is the order of amino acids covalently bonded together, including disulfide bonds, in a polypeptide chain. The primary sequence is written, for proteins, from N to C terminal using the one-letter or three- letter abbreviations.
