- In as1 mutant, assign secondary structure and tell how many alpha helices and beta-pleated sheets there is on the model.arrow_forwardIn pyrimidine nucleosides, the anti conformation predominates. Explain. Do the purine nucleosides have similar interactions?arrow_forward5-Bromouracil is an analogue of thymine that usually pairswith adenine. However, 5-bromouracil frequently pairs withguanine. Explain.arrow_forward
- Lactose permease, a protein of E. coli, is composed of a singlepolypeptide that is 417 amino acids in length. By convention, theamino acids within a polypeptide are numbered from the aminoterminalend to the carboxyl-terminal end. Are the following questionsabout lactose permease true or false?A. Because the sixty-fourth amino acid is glycine and the sixty- eighth amino acid is aspartic acid, the codon for glycine,64, is closer to the 3′ end of the mRNA than the codon for aspartic acid, 68.B. The mRNA that encodes lactose permease must be greater than1241 nucleotides in length.arrow_forwardGiven a primer sequence 3’- CTGGGAAACATTCTGGAT - 5’, compute for the melting temperature of this 18-mer.arrow_forwardCan you describe the ensemble allostery model and explain how it is used to explain allostery in intrinsically disordered proteins?arrow_forward
- In a-c below, will the residue on the right-hand side increase or decrease the pKa of the residue on the left-hand side? Explain.arrow_forwardBased on standard MS- LS3-1: Fish in a cave system in Mexico is missing its eyes, has thin, translucent skin, and is relatively small (7-10 cm in length). Can you describe by model why structural changes to genes (mutations) on chromosomes may affect proteins and may result in beneficial effects to the structure and function of the fish? Can you answer in the following format? 1- Structure How Structure and Function is Affected by Mutations in Blind Fish Eyes Scales Taste Cells Lateral Line 2- Model to explain what causes these changes: Change: ______________ Adapting an Organism to the Dark Cause: ________________ Stop the Growth of Eyes Effect: ___________________ Fish with Heightened Other Senses References: Video: Rare Blind Cave Fish in Mexican Cave System https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWdtGuDd8z0 Fact Sheet: Blind Cave Fish https://www.denverzoo.org/animals/blind-cave-fish Information: Mexican Tetra…arrow_forwardThe octapeptide gly-cys-met-asn-lys-ala-tyr-gly was hydrolyzed consecutively by CNBr and then trypsin (3 fragments total). The mixture of fragments was buffered at a pH 8.5 and then chromatographed on an anion-exchanger (positive resin) with the same buffer. Draw sequence (abbreviated form) of all fragments at that pH (show charges) and predict elution order.arrow_forward
- Lactose permease, a protein of E. coli, is composed of a single polypeptide that is 417 amino acids in length. By convention, the amino acids within a polypeptide are numbered from the aminoterminus to the carboxyl-terminus. Are the following questions about lactose permease true or false? A. Because the 64th amino acid is glycine and the 68th amino acid is aspartic acid, the codon for glycine, 64, is closer to the 3′ end of the mRNA than the codon for aspartic acid, 68. B. The mRNA that encodes lactose permease must be greater than 1241 nucleotides in length.arrow_forwardThe authors state: "Properties of the single mutants K557R, D591V and K617A, a double mutant, D591V/K617A, and a triple mutant, K557R/D591V/K617A, were evaluated to find an allosteric binding site for citrate." The numbers between the letters represent the residue number altered. The letter in front was the wild type and the letter afterwards is the mutant. How would the the triple mutations K557R and D591V and K617A alter the overall protein? O lower the # of charges, increase the pl O increase the # of charges, increase the pl O lower the # of charges, lower the pl O lower the # of charges, increase the pl O no change in the # of charges, increase the pl O no change in the # of charges, lower the plarrow_forward1 2 Glycogenin is a homodimer of 37 kDa subunits. (Homodimer means identical subunits of type a that form a dimer of type a2). Glycogenin has a chain of a(1,4)-linked units of glucose attached to the sidechain of a tyrosine residue. The chain of a(1,4)-linked glucose units is a primer for the initiation of glycogen synthesis by glycogen synthase. Assume the dimer is stable and not in equilibrium with monomer subunits. Which of the answers below are plausible pathways for attaching or building the primer chain of glucose units? The branching enzyme attaches a chain of 7 glucose units to the tyrosine sidechain of glycogenin. 0 0 0 0 000 The transferase attaches 3 units of a(1,4)-linked glucose to the tyrosine sidechain of glycogenin. Glycogen synthase then extends the chain using UDP-Glc. 0 One glycogenin dimer builds the a(1,4)-llinked glucose chain on a subunit of another glycogenin dimer. -D-O Each subunit builds the a(1,4)-Ilinked glucose chain on the other subunit of the same dimer.…arrow_forward
