- Remembering that the amino acid side chains projecting from each polypeptide backbone in a β sheet point alternately above and below the plane of the sheet, consider the following protein sequence: Leu-Lys-Val-Asp-Ile-Ser-Leu-Arg- Leu-Lys-Ile-Arg-Phe-Glu. Do you find anything remarkable about the arrangement of the amino acids in this sequence when incorporated into a β sheet? Can you make any predictions as to how the β sheet might be arranged in a protein?A particular protein has the amino acid sequenceN . . . Ala-Pro-His-Trp-Arg-Lys-Gly-Val-Thr . . . Cwithin its primary structure. A geneticist studyingmutations affecting this protein discovered that several of the mutants produced shortened protein molecules that terminated within this region. In one ofthem, the His became the terminal amino acid.a. What DNA single-base change(s) would cause theprotein to terminate at the His residue?b. What other potential sites do you see in the DNAsequence encoding this protein where mutation ofa single base pair would cause premature termination of translation?A segment of the wild type of DNA sequence coding for the site of N501 mutation is shown below. TGTTGGCTACTAATGGCTATCATCACACGC… identify the correct reading frame, the amino acid sequence in a single letter code, and the charged residues and approximate net charge for this portion of the protein at pH 8 Given the location and type of the mutation, why would scientists potentially be concerned about this variant?
- A heptapeptide when treated with trypsin produced two peptides. T1 (D, G, Y) and T2 (K, F, V, A). When the heptapeptide was treated with chymotrypsin, three peptides were produced: CT1 (K,,Y, G), CT2 (F,A, V), and CT3 (D). The sequences of these peptides is not known, however. When the peptide was treated with Sanger’s Reagent and hydrolyzed, DNP-K and DNP-A were recovered. What is the amino acid sequence of the heptapeptide?You are trying to determine the PTMs on your protein of interest, so you set up a mass spectrometry experiment. You get the following data. Starting sequence: PRTEINSKICKASSDER After Trypsin digest, you get the following major peptides and weights from MS: TEINSKICK/1167 Da ASSDER/664 Da a. Which of these peptides is modified? b. What is the modification?Proteins called molecular chaperones assist in the process of protein folding. One class of chaperones found in organisms from bacteria to mammals is heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90). All Hsp90 chaperones contain a 10 amino acid “signature sequence” that allows ready identification of these proteins in sequence databases. Two representations of this signature sequence are shown below. (a) In this sequence, which amino acid residues are invariant (conserved across all species)?(b) At which position(s) are amino acids limited to those with positively charged side chains? For each position, which amino acid is more commonly found?(c) At which positions are substitutions restricted to amino acids with negatively charged side chains? For each position, which amino acid predominates?(d) There is one position that can be any amino acid, although one amino acid appears much more often than any other. What position is this, and which amino acid appears most often?

Why is it better to search with a short sequencethan with a long sequence? Do you not have more chancesfor a “hit” in the database with a long sequence?You are studying the toxic protein called ectatomin, a major component of ant venom (specifically from the species Ectatomma tuberculatum), that embeds into cell membranes and creates pores that cause cells to lyse.
