Biochemistry: For parts a - d below, state whether or not the bond angles are observed (circle one) for protein secondary structures, and if so, state what kind of secondary structures.

a) φ = +9 0° Observed/ Not observed; Secondary Structure: ψ = - 45°

b) φ = - 130 ° Observed/ Not observed; Secondary Structure: ψ = +130 °

c) φ = - 60 ° Observed/ Not observed; Secondary Structure: ψ = - 50 °

d) φ = - 90 ° Observed/ Not observed; Secondary Structure: ψ = - 150°

Solutions

Expert Solution

Ans. According to Ramachandran plot, the secondary structures of proteins may have only a certain set of phi and psi angles which makes them thermodynamically stable in the specified conformation.

Correct option. c. Only this set of phi and psi angles are permitted (closest) in Ramachandran plot.

Given, Phi = -600 , psi = - 500. In Ramachandran plot, the closest secondary structure to it is right-handed alpha-helix (phi = -570 , psi = -470).

Options a, b, and d are not permitted by Ramachandran plot.

BioChemistry Problem State whether the Hill Coefficient (N) is positive or negative? Explain your reasoning in each case. (a) The protein has multiple subunits, each with a single ligand-binding site. Binding of ligand to one site increases the binding affinity of other sites for the ligand. (b) The protein is a single polypeptide with two ligand-binding sites, site one causes a structural change that decreases affinity for the second ligand. (c) A molecule binds to a protein and inhibits binding...
