covalent and hydrogen bonds, H atom tugged between two electronegative molecules

van der waals

distance from nucleus to surface, orbitals as close as possible without overlapping, no bond, dipole-dipole interactions-> between two polar molecules, london dispersion forces-> between non polar molecules

Hydrogen bond

electronegative element covalently bonded to H atom and electrostatically attracted to second H atom.

ionic bond

electrons transferred from one atom to another, low electronegativity of one atom is complemented by high electronegativity of another atom, all ionic bonds have some degree of covalence none are PURELY ionic

properties of water:

highly cohesive, can bond to four other water molecules at one time by H bonding,

which amino acids are cyclic?

his, thr, pro, try, trp

quaternary structure

special arrangement of polypeptide chains in a protein with multiple subunits, not all proteins have this, ionic bonds, van der waals, disulfide can be homo (collagen) or hetero subunits(hemoglobin)

characteristics of peptide bonds

-are resonance stabilized -brings C closer to N than in normal amine bond causing shorter stronger bond -no free rotation of C-N bond -strong tendency to form H bonds - atoms in peptide bond are strongly polar causing chains to fold so that it makes as many H bonds as possible while decreasing steric strain

similarity and difference between structure of Hb and Mb

-hemoglobin and myoglobin both carry heme prosthetic group, both have alpha helical chain with 8 helices, same function to carry oxygen, are homologous proteins -Mb is a monomer, heme group more exposed to solvent -while Hb is a tetramer -different in primary structure, only 18% similar

Y vs. pO2 for Mb

-hyperbolic curve -binding increases rapidly until most molecules are saturated -k= P50 where Mb is half saturated 2.8 torr -at low pO2 binding increases - myoglobin has high affinity even in low pO2 -at low pO2 Mb has 10 times the affinity for O2 than Hb

Intermediate Filaments

-made of elongated fibrous proteins -8 prototfilaments -V strong-> exclusively structural, static -keratin: dimer of coiled coil alpha helices, 7 residue repeat, #1 and #4 residues are non polar(hydrophobic) and line up along one side of helix to form van der waals interactions, part of hair and nails, cross linked s-s bonds -collagen: trimeric molecule, part of bones and tendons, most abundant protein in most vertebrates, every third residue is Gly,forms narrow left-handed helix, polypeptides form to make right handed helix, Gly in center->no other residue small enough to fit, triple helix stabilized by H bonds, processed after secretion from cell

kinesin

-microtubule associated motor protein -shorter neck than myosin, light chains at opposite end of polypeptide to hold onto vesicle --move by stepping precessive, one head always bound -ATP hydrolysis driven -heads work together

X-ray crystallography

-purify protein to homogeneity -crystallize under ideal conditions -bombard with x-ray -generated diffraction pattern that can analyzed -get 3D map of electron density -good for determining tertiary structure of amino acids

binding of O2 to Hb

-sigmoidal curve (S shaped) -p50=26 torr - at low pO2, O2 is reluctant to bind Hb - as pO2 increases, affinity increases -binding is cooperative meaning the first O2 binds with less affinity than the 4th oxygen (4th O2 has 100 times more affinity)->allostery:binding of one site affects binding at another

what protein structure is lost in denaturation? what causes denaturation?

-tertiary, then secondary -denaturation is caused by PH change, temp change, solubility and ionic strength

Actin

-two forms of actin: G actin which is globular and monomeric with ATP binding site and F actin which is filemental double chain subunits -(-) end with ATP site -grows faster at (+) end -ATP hydrolyzed after addition -older actin bound to ADP -polymerization of actin is reversible making it a dynamic -2 prtofilaments make microfilament

Hb binds to O2 very well in the lungs(high pO2 ) to bring O2 to the muscles ounce in the tissues(low pO2) it releases oxygen bc of low affinity in low Po2. Myoglobin takes over in tissues(low pO2) to pick up O2 and delivers it to the mitochondria

1) proteins- polymers of Amino Acids formed by peptide bonds/amino bonds 2) Nucleic acids- DNA or RNA, polymers of nucleotides formed by phophodiester bonds 3)polysaccharides- polymers of carbs joined by glycosidic bonds

myosin mechanism

1) reaction begins with myosin bound to an actin subunit of thin filament. ATP binding alters the configuration of myosin head so that it releases actin. 2) the rapid hydrolysis of ATP to ADP + Pi triggers a conformational change that rotates myosin lever and increases affinity of myosin for actin 3) myosin binds to an actin subunit further along the thin filament increasing affinity for actin 4) binding actin cause pi and ADP to be released. myosin lever returns to its original position causing thin filament to move relative to thick filament (POWER STROKE) ATP releases lost ADP to repeat reaction cycle. - myosin head does not stay bound to ATP/ADP and filament at same time -power stroke at end of sequence
