resting state of the protein, the Lys 216 Schiff base has pKa = 9.5 and Asp 85 has pKa = 3.5. When the conformational change occurs, the proton that was on the Schiff base moves to Asp 85. This should tell you that one or both of these two pKas changed with the conformational change. How does the pKa of Asp 85 compare with the pKa of the Lys 216 Schiff base after the conformational change

TRUE OR FALSE 35. Denaturation is basically the dis arrangement of intramolecular interactions in a tertiary structure of a protein. 36. When proteins are dissolved in water, alt polar regions are ionized.
Globular proteins with multiple disulfide bonds must be heated longer and at higher temperature to denature them. Bovinepancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI), having 58 amino acids in a single chain and 3 disulfide linkages, loses its catalytic activity whenheated at nearly 90°C for 5-10 minutes. Explain the molecular basis of this observed thermal property of BPTI relative to the nativestructure and function of the protein.

Compare and contrast structural features of collagen and α-keratin (OK to do this as a list or table comparing/contrasting 3-4 points, e.g. type of helices, noncovalent and covalent interactions between helices, favored residues). Can you please help?
The polarity if the solvent and other environmental factors can affect the pKa of a weak acid. Suppose that the amino group of a protein has a pKa of about 8.0 when exposed to water on the outside of a protein. (a) Would you expect the pKa to be higher or lower than 8 if the group were buried in the hydrophobic interior of a protein? Explain. (b) Suppose that the hydrophobic interion of the protein contains a carboxylate side chains of an Asp residue in close proximity to the amino group. What would you now expect for the pKa of the amino group?
