(g) Analyse the molecular structure of a dimeric enzyme with a quaternary structure e.g. viral/HIV protease‚ as an example of a globular protein‚ and of collagen as an example of a fibrous protein‚ and relate these structures to their functions. (h) Explain the mode of action of enzymes

One – 1. Proteins - Proteins are chains of amino acids. In general‚ proteins may be structural proteins used to build tissues‚ they may be enzymes that mediate chemical reactions‚ or they may be hormones. Examples of proteins would be channel proteins in cell membranes‚ collagen protein in the skin‚ actin and myosin in the muscles‚ and hemoglobin in red blood cells. Types of dietary sources would be‚ meat‚ milk‚ (both of which are not pure proteins‚ but are good sources of protein)‚ eggs‚ grains

has the instructions for making proteins Part of the nucleus | function | Chromatin | * The chromatin consists of DNA and proteins. * Some of these proteins controls the activities of the cell * When cells divide‚ chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes * The chromatin shows up as dark patches when it is stained. | Nucleolus | * The nucleolus makes RNA and ribosomes-these pass into the cytoplasm and proteins are assembled on them (protein synthesis) * The nucleus is a dense

filaments within these structures are cross-linked by accessory proteins known as actin binding proteins. These proteins connect two actin filaments through its two actin-binding sites or dimerization with actin domains. Crosslinking actin filaments can be performed by fimbrin proteins that attach filaments in a parallel fashion to facilitate movement. Thus‚ they are localized in microvilli‚ filopodia‚ and focal adhesions. Other proteins including α actinin and spectrin connect actin filaments in an

– The Proteins and Amino Acids Chapter Learning Objectives 6.1 State why some amino acids are essential‚ nonessential‚ or conditionally essential to the human body‚ and outline how the body builds a protein molecule. 6.2 Describe the digestion of protein and the absorption and transport of amino acids in the body. 6.3 List the roles that various proteins and amino acids can play in the body‚ and describe the influence of carbohydrate on amino acid metabolism. 6.4 Compute the daily protein need

hydrogen bond between every fourth peptide bond. They are usually found in fibrous protein such as keratin and collagen. Beta pleated sheets are structures where two regions of the polypeptide chain lie parallel to each other. Again hydrogen bonds between the parts of the backbone in the parallel regions hold the structure together. The cores of many globular proteins are made of beta pleated sheets. The 3-D shape of a protein is otherwise known as the tertiary structure. Superimposed on the patterns of

types of macromolecules: carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ lipids and nucleic acids. In this lab we will test four foods to see if they contain carbohydrates (sugar and/or starches)‚ proteins and lipids. We will use chemical reagents to test to determine the presence of macromolecules: Benidicts solution for sugar‚ Iodine for starch‚ Biurets reagent for protein‚ and Sudan III for lipids. Hypothesis (1 point) If we test buttermilk biscuits for starches‚ sugars‚ proteins and lipids then it will test positive
