Fnxs of proteins

(?) -- interaction of N-H and C=O of the peptide bond leads to local regular structures such as α-helices and β-sheets.

Hydrogen bonds These amino acids are found exposed to water on the surface of the protein and form H bonds with water molecules solvating the protein. H bonds are not exclusive to the surface but are also found in the interior region as well, stabilizing the folded structure.

Breaking of a peptide bond into the individual amino acids with the addition of a water molecule across the peptide bond is a process know as (?)

Hydrolysis

(?) -- A primary force for folding of a polypeptide is to remove hydrophobic amino acids from interactions with water; the need to remove these amino acids from solvation is why they are sequestered into the interior region of the folded protein. The interior forces called (?), are the interactions of these hydrophobic amino acid side chains. These forces AKA (?) -medium-range weak attraction between all atoms contributes significantly to the stability in the interior of the protein.

(?) are another type of cell surface protein that functions along with the signal transduction receptors. It plays a central role during the adhesion of cell to cell and cell to extracellular matrix.

Integrins It can transduce signals bidirectionally, into and out of the cell. It is already known that a lot of cellular proteins can bind the cytoplasmic tail of integrins and these proteins that then transduce the activating signal from integrins to other cellular proteins or cytoskeleton.

When myoglobin binds oxygen it is held in position in the oxygen binding crevice bound to both (?) and a (?) In hemoglobin when the first oxygen binds, it causes a rotation of the 4 peptides. This conformational change allows the next 3 oxygen molecules to bind with a 1000 fold greater affinity. When you look at the graph of oxygen binding, myoglobin has a (higher/lower) affinity for oxygen (rectangular hyperbolic curve), than that of hemoglobin (sigmoidal curve.) Hemoglobin's binding of oxygen is also pH dependent. Oxygen is released by hemoglobin due to a small (increase/decrease) in pH, to be bound by myoglobin. This is what has been called the (?) effect. It is due to increase in H+ ions and CO2 that cause this pH drop in the capillaries of tissues. This effect changes the tetramer binding, it does not affect myoglobin since it is a monomer.

(B) The α helix viewed from one end, looking down the longitudinal axis.

Note the positions of the R groups, represented by green spheres. This ball-and-stick model, which emphasizes the helical arrangement, gives the false impression that the helix is hollow, because the balls do not represent the van der Waals radii of the individual atoms.

(?) acts as a helix breaker because the rotation around the N-Ca bond is impossible. (?) acts as a helix breaker because the tiny R-group (H) supports other conformations.

The yellow residues, for example, are hydrophobic amino acids. The green circles represent residues that are polar non-charged amino acids. Theses amino acids for instance in a membrane integral protein would interact with the fatty acid chains of the phospholipids. The pink and grey circles represent residues with the potential for interaction of negatively and positively charged side-chains on the alpha helix. In the transmembrane protein these residues would be located towards the interior of, for example a transport, to interact with the anion being transported.

Cellular transporters belong to two major families: passive facilitated transport and active transport

Those were the transporter is moving molecules with the concentration gradient the energy of transport is from the gradient, and is called passive. On the other hand if these small molecules are being transported against the concentration gradient, then cellular energy is required to carry them across the membrane by these active transporters.
