3. A. As the bulk solvent in biological systems, water exerts a huge effect on protein structure and function by interacting strongly with certain amino acid side chains, but not with others. Take a look at each the amino acid side chains (the circled parts on the next page) and decide whether you would likely find each of them exposed to water on the outside surface of a soluble protein or buried on the inside. Why? B. Pick any three different amino acids, link them together with peptide bonds, and draw the resulting short protein. Be careful to distinguish the amino and carboxyl ends from the side chains! Label the N and C ends. How would your peptide side chains interact with water? How would they interact with a lipid bilayer? You can write "INSIDE" or "OUTSIDE" after each of the amino acid one-letter codes listed here: G E K Q W Y H.
