Question
Chapter 3.5, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To determine: The model for the structure of the lipid droplet with reference to the figure 3.11 (b) given in the textbook. Also, indicate neutral lipids with blue dots and proteins as green blobs.
Introduction: Inside the cells of human beings, lipids are always stored in specialized structures called lipid droplets. Phospholipids are those which contain a phosphate group in addition to the triglycerides.

Learning Objectives
Identify a peptide bond, the N-terminus (amino-terminus) and C- terminus (carboxyl-terminus) of a polypeptide in a series of linked amino acids.
Describe the four levels of protein structure (primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary), what types of bonding interactions hold each level together, and how a protein’s structure relates to its cellular function.
Link the chemical structures of amino acid R groups to the types of interactions they could form in the folded structure of a protein.
Hypothesize the likely consequence of environmental conditions on the folded structure.
Recognize secondary structure elements when proteins are represented in different ways (e.g. ball-and-stick structures, ribbon diagrams).
Define these terms: enzyme, enzyme activity, active site, substrate, enzyme substrate complex, product, denature.

- Experiment 1: Functional properties of starch in a food product There is wide within-species variation in starch content and composition. Rice can vary from “waxy” types with virtually no amylose in the starch to “normal” types with perhaps 20% amylose. Desserts made from different types of rice flour have very different properties, especially texture. Materials: Two types of rice flour (soaked in 64 ml of water) • Glutinous (waxy, 1% amylose) • Non-glutinous Sugar (finely granulated) Baking powder Salt Procedure: 64 g each 25 g 1 g 0.5 g Laboratory 1 Properties of Starch Starch is made up of amylose and amylopectin in various proportions. Because amylose and amylopectin have very different physicochemical properties, the types of starch and thus the amylose to amylopectin ratio significantly affects the sensory characteristics, especially the texture of food products.
