Part 1: Hydrophobic vs Hydrophilic Amino Acids
Assume the green pipe-cleaner represents a polypeptide that has folded into a helical secondary
structure and the tape represents the R groups from the amino acids comprising this polypeptide.
Given the key below, predict what the tertiary structure of this polypeptide will be.
White: hydrophobic R groups
Red:
hydrophilic R groups
Orange: hydrophilic R groups
Yellow: hydrophilic R groups
Suggested Answer:

Part 2: Introduction of charged and thiol containing amino acids
Given the key below and your knowledge of the bond types that help
stabilize a protein's tertiary structure, predict how the polypeptide could
possible continue to fold.
White: hydrophobic R groups
Red:
hydrophilic R groups
Orange: -SH containing R group
Yellow: Charged R groups (assume opposite charges)
