Give the 20 amino acids (include structure, name, and symbol) and classify them according to their structures and nutritional requirements.
A- draw a general scheme of classification of lipids. B- give the function of each general class of lipids.
Describe the amino acid composition in terms of the general characteristics and comment on what the amino acid composition tells you about likely cellular location of the protein.
Identification. Write in CAPITAL LETTERS. Wrong spelling, wrong. Carbohydrates may contain 1 sugar unit (________________________), 2 sugar unit (__________________________), or many sugar units (_____________________________). Proteins are polymers from monomers called ______________________ that are linked by a covalent bond called ________________________, hence, the term ________________________ is also applied to proteins. Proteins are classified according to function,examples of these classes are: _____________________, ________________________, ____________________________, ______________________________, ____________________________, ___________________________, _____________________________.
Discuss and identify the four levels of protein structure (primary, secondary, tertiary,and quaternary). Explain how the structure of a protein affects its properties and howdenaturation changes the structure.
Biochemists talk about protein structure at four distinct levels: primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structure. Below are depictions of each of these levels of protein structure. For each image, match the term and the written description of the level of protein structure that the image depicts. Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins.
Find a protein of your choice, choose a part of it (containing at least 30 amino acid residues), find the amino acid sequence (sequence in it), identify what functional groups the amino acid substitutes contain (carboxyl group and 2-position the Nitro group will form amide bonds, forming the covalent basic structure of the protein). What different interactions can occur between these functional groups? How will it relate to the spatial structure of the protein?
Provide the smallest molecular unit of most lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Keep in mind that lipids are a little tricky.
Describe how a polypeptide can fold to become a functioning protein. Be sure to address the four levels of protein (folding or organization known as hierarchy of structure). In addition, describe three different jobs proteins can perform if the protein has the correct shape.
Differentiate the following: a. Essential and non-essential amino acids b. Single and conjugated proteins c. Primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structures of protein d. Monosaccharide, disaccharide and polysaccharide e. Aldose and ketose f . Epimers and anomers g. Fats and oils h. Saturated and unsaturated fatty acids
Describe the structure of an amino acid. Be sure to describe how the R-group of an amino acid will influence the properties of the amino acid. In addition, describe how the amino acids link together to form polypeptides
There are several different types of carbohydrates and lipids. But there are thousands of different kinds of proteins. Considering the building blocks of proteins compared to the building blocks of carbohydrates and lipids, why do you think there are so many more types of proteins? no handwritten answers please.
