Question

Directions: Answer the following in 5 SENTENCES EACH, correctly and as comprehensively as possible.

1. Which level of protein organization is the most significant in determining the final
confirmation?
2. Illustrate and explain the Primary Structure of Proteins.

3. What types of bonds are found in the primary structure of a protein?
4. What is the type of reaction is an example of the formation of a peptide bond?

Answer 1

Answer-1:

◆ Explanation: 1. Primary structure is the most important significant in determining the final confirmation of protein organization because if amino acid fails to form amino group and carboxylic acid group, it may cause the succeeding levels to fold differently.

2. Malformed proteins also can cause most genetic disorders that's why the primary structure is most important significant in determining the final confirmation of protein organization.

Answer-2:

◆ Explanation: 1. Primary structure of protein may be defined as linear sequence of a peptide or protein.

2. Primary structure of protein is the process starting from the amino-terminal end to the carboxyl-terminal end.

3. Primary structure is also essential for providing 3D (3 dimensional) structure to the protein.

Answer-3:

◆ Explanation: 1.Only one single chemical bond found in the primary structure of a protein that is peptide bond (covalent bond).

2. As primary structure of protein is made up of amino group and carboxylic acid group, the peptide bond is formed between these two groups.

3. It is also a strong bond as it forms primary structure of protein.

Answer-4:

◆ Explanation: 1. The example of the reaction of the formation of a peptide bond is dehydration synthesis reaction, it is also known as condensation reaction.

2. With the help of dehydration synthesis reaction the molecules of amino and carboxylic acid groups attaches with peptide bond.
