Question
Chapter 1, Problem 26P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The energy of the ionic interaction between two phosphate groups at the given values of dielectric constant should be calculated.
Concept introduction:
Under the effect of electric field, the induced polarization gets involved in the volume of the given material. The measurement of the potential energy in the form of induced polarization is termed as dielectric constant. Further, dielectric constant is calculated as the ratio of dielectric permittivity of material to that of the vacuum.

Reposting - What would the tertiary structure of the dipeptide Asp-Ser be if it was made into a polypeptide chain? (Would it form a beta pleated sheet, an alpha helix, etc) Why would it do this? What properties of this polypeptide causes this?
This sub part still needs to be solved - What would the tertiary structure of Pro-ala and Glycl-L-alanine be?

At 20 Celsius degree, protein-Z binds DNA with a free energy of –7 kJ/mole. Protein Z has an unfolding free energy of 11 kJ/mole without ligand bound and 15 kJ/mole with ligand bound. Does the unfolded/denatured form of protein Z bind to DNA, and if so – what is the "Delta G" of binding of the unfolded form?

Cis peptide bonds are rarely found in proteins because they are about 8 kJ/mole less stable than the trans isomer. However, in the rare instances where they are present, they are followed by a Pro residue. In fact, about 10% of the proline residues in proteins are found following a cis peptide bond. Why would a Pro following a cis peptide bond make a difference?arrow_forward
