Concept explainers

Neutral Amino Acids
Amino acids which do not have any charge on them are neutral amino acids.
Globular Protein
The globular proteins refer to the shape of protein specifically spherical in nature apart from spherical form fibrous, disordered and membrane-bound proteins exist. These globular proteins are miscible in water and form a colloidal solution rather than …
Dimer
Dimers are basic organic compounds, which are derivates of oligomers. It is formed by the combination of two monomers which could potentially be strong or weak and in most cases covalent or intermolecular in nature. Identical monomers are called homodime…
Dipeptide
A dipeptide is considered a mixture of two distinct amino acids. Since the amino acids are distinct, based on their composition, two dipeptide's isomers can be produced. Various dipeptides are biologically essential and are therefore crucial to industry.

Chapter 3.8, Problem FQ

As stated, proteins are stereochemically pure because only a single enantiomer of each amino acid building block is used by nature. How many stereoisomers are possible for a chain of only 3 chiral amino acids if both enantiomers of the amino adds are used?

Contrast the polarity of the side chains   Dna 1) what are the predominant groups in dna 2) the covalent linkage between nucleotides is called a phosphodiester bond. Sketch the linkage
5. Arg and Lys Asp and Lys Pro and Glu Among these amino acid combinations listed above, only the combination of Asp and Lys have side chains with groups that have the greatest ability to stabilize the tertiary structure of a protein. Explain in your own words and by drawing (1) why Asp and Lys side chain interaction stabilizes the tertiary structure of a protein, and (2) why the pairs of Arg and Lys & Pro and Glu cannot provide the stability to the protein structure.
