- Regarding equations in Protein and Ligand binding.arrow_forwardHuman serum transferrin is an iron transport protein. With the use of appropriate diagrams, describe the metal-bound active site and discuss the structural changes that occur on iron binding to the protein.arrow_forwardDefine the term and describe the autoantibodies presentin SLE.arrow_forward
- For the binding of a ligand to a protein, what is the relationship between the Ka (association constant), the Kd (dissociation constant), and the affinity of the protein for the ligand?arrow_forwardProtein kinases (PTKS) are enzymes that regulate the biological activity of proteins by phosphorylation of specific amino acids, inducing a conformational change from an inactive to an active form of the protein. a) True b) Falsearrow_forwardDescribe the tertiary (3º) structure of proteins and the different types of intermolecular forcesinvolved. Provide a structural example for each force.arrow_forward
- Define The domain structure of cytoplasmic dynein.arrow_forwardWhen a globular cytoplasmic protein folds into its proper tertiary structure, which of the following correctly states the class of amino acids that will be in the interior and the reason why this class will be in the interior? Polar amino acids will be in the interior because they line the binding pocket for a hydrophilic ligand Nonpolar amino acids will be in the interior because they line the binding pocket for a hydrophilic ligand Charged amino acids will be in the interior because they would be bound by ions in the aqueous exterior Nonpolar amino acids would be in the interior because they avoid the exterior aqueous environment. Nonpolar amino acids will be in the interior because the protein would bind the membrane bilayer if they were on the exteriorarrow_forwardDescribe protein denaturation and its effectsarrow_forward
- Define the following terms:a. proproteinb. preproproteinc. disulfide exchanged. proline hydroxylatione. proteolytic cleavagearrow_forwardProtein structure and function: a) Name two common post-translational modifications of proteins in the cell that will affect their structure/function. b) What are prions? Briefly describe their structure and function. C) Explain the principles of protein folding and significance of urea and Bmercaptoethanol in the experimental procedures addressing this question.arrow_forwardDescribe the similarities and differences in the structures of GPCRs specific for various ligands including the extracellular , transmembrane , and intracellular domains.arrow_forward
