On average, how many phosphoanhydride bonds (P;-P; bonds) are directly hydrolyzed in thecourse of synthesizing a 200 amino acid protein? Assume that you begin with the mature mRNA,ribosomal subunits, tRNAs, free amino acids, and all necessary factors.
Both hsp60-like and hsp70 molecular chaperonesshare an affinity for exposed hydrophobic patches on pro-teins, using them as indicators of incomplete folding. Whydo you suppose hydrophobic patches serve as critical sig-nals for the folding status of a protein?
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?
Treatment of a polypeptide by 2-mercaptoethanol yields two polypeptides that have the following amino acid sequences: Ala-Phe-Cys-Met-Tyr-Cys-Leu-Trp-Cys-Asn Val-Cys-Trp-Val-Ile-Phe-Gly-Cys-Lys Chymotrypsin-catalyzed hydrolysis of the intact polypeptide yields polypeptide fragments with the following amino acid compositions: (Ala, Phe) (Asn, Cys2, Met,Tyr) (Cys, Gly, Lys) (Cys2, Leu,Trp2,Val) (Ile, Phe,Val) Indicate the positions of the disulfide bonds in the original polypeptide.
Treatment of a polypeptide by 2-mercaptoethanol yields two polypeptides that have the following amino acid sequences: Ala-Phe-Cys-Met-Tyr-Cys-Leu-Trp-Cys-Asn Val-Cys-Trp-Val-Ile-Phe-Gly-Cys-Lys Chymotrypsin-catalyzed hydrolysis of the intact polypeptide yields polypeptide fragments with the following amino acid compositions: (Ala, Phe) (Asn, Cys2, Met,Tyr) (Cys, Gly, Lys) (Cys2, Leu,Trp2,Val) (Ile, Phe,Val) Indicate the positions of the disulfide bonds in the original polypeptide. I don't understand how the order of amino acids in Step 2 was arranged. Please explain. Thank you.
Consider the following peptide to answer the questions below: A M A K K E S H I F T A I D E What is the total charge of this peptide at pH = 5? What is the N terminal amino acid (full name)? C terminal amino acid? How many fragments would result if this peptide underwent proteolytic cleavage with V-8 protease and what are these fragments (list them)? Would this peptide be a candidate to form an alpha helix? Why or why not
The following data describe the catalysis of cleavage of peptide bonds in small peptides by the enzyme UTSAse (the arrow indicates the peptide bond cleaved in each case).

A tetradecapeptide (14 amino acid residues) gives the following peptide fragments on partial hydrolysis. From this information, deduce the primary structure of this polypep- tide. Fragments are grouped according to size. Pentapeptide Fragments Tetrapeptide Fragments Phe-Val-Asn-Gln-His Gln-His-Leu-Cys His-Leu-Cys-Gly-Ser His-Leu-Val-Glu Gly-Ser-His-Leu-Val Leu-Val-Glu-Ala
A protein has been sequenced after cleavage of disulfide bonds. The protein is known to contain 3 Cys residues, located as shown here. Only one of the Cys has a free —SH group, and the other two are involved in an —S—S— bond. The only methionine and the only aromatic amino acid (Phe) in this protein are in the positions indicated. Cleavage of the intact protein (i.e., withdisulfide bonds intact) by either cyanogen bromide or chymotrypsin does not break the protein into two peptides. Where is the —S—S— bond (i.e., AB, BC, or AC)?
Peptides and small proteins fold spontaneously in aqueous solution at room temperature. Thus, for a small protein in water, we can say ΔG FOLD < 0. Denoting the unfolded protein as Unf and the folded protein as Fld, we can write the following equation:Unf(aq)--DELTA G FOLD----> Fld(aq)Considering the transition from the unfolded state (in which there are many possible conformations) to the folded state (only one conformation), there is clearly a decrease in the entropy of the protein. However, protein folding is (correctly) described as an entropically driven process.a) Resolve this apparent paradox by identifying the enthalpy (ΔH) and entropy (−TΔS)components involved in protein…
