Frage 1

Frage
Alpha helices are a helix-helix structure
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 2

Frage
Which of the following best describes an alpha helix?
Antworten
  • Ridges are formed by side chains with troughs in between
  • Ridges are formed by the peptide bonds and the amino acid side chains form the troughs

Frage 3

Frage
Helix-helix packing can be shown by highlighting every _ residues?
Antworten
  • 1st
  • 4th
  • 3rd
  • 2nd

Frage 4

Frage
Alpha helices must follow particular rules when packing together
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 5

Frage
Describe the ridges of the following proteins
Antworten
  • i + 4
  • i + 2
  • i + 3

Frage 6

Frage
The angle between two packed helices depends on which type of ridges pack into which troughs.
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 7

Frage
The troughs of one alpha helix will be filled by the 'backbone' of another
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 8

Frage
Beta sheets twist slightly _ each other
Antworten
  • Away from
  • Towards

Frage 9

Frage
The angle between two beta sheets is approx....?
Antworten
  • 30 degrees
  • 60 degrees
  • 90 degrees

Frage 10

Frage
Where in the plane is each color (ignore green)
Antworten
  • Yellow- above plane White- below plane
  • White- above plane Yellow- below plane
  • The amino acids will point in opposite directions

Frage 11

Frage
The strands of beta sheets are held together by backbone hydrogen bonding
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 12

Frage
The angle between sheets is determined by their...
Antworten
  • Right handed twist
  • Left handed twist
  • Length
  • Amino acid side chains

Frage 13

Frage
How are the aa side chains arranged in beta sheets?
Antworten
  • The amino acid residue side chains of one beta sheet pack between the spaces between side chains on the adjacent beta sheet
  • The amino acids on one beta sheet will have no residue where the other beta sheet has one (they're removed)
  • The amino acids with residues attached will alternate between beta sheets

Frage 14

Frage
When an alpha helix and a beta sheet pack together, the groove the beta sheet lies in tends to be made by amino acids how far apart?
Antworten
  • 4n
  • 6n
  • 3n
  • 2n

Frage 15

Frage
Name three things that can be used in protein folding to encourage correct folding?
Antworten
  • Non-native interactions (as long as they are reversible)
  • Pinching (isolates subdomains for folding)
  • The removal of a domain for folding, before it's re-addition

Frage 16

Frage
Negative Free Energy is less favorable
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 17

Frage
Concerning entropy- less order is more favorable
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 18

Frage
Which of the following is the equation for the free energy change of a folded protein
Antworten
  • ΔG = ΔH - TΔS
  • ΔH = ΔG x TΔS
  • TΔS = ΔH + ΔG

Frage 19

Frage
Hydrogen bonds are the least common type of bond in proteins
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 20

Frage
What's the enthalpy change of a H bond formation?
Antworten
  • -4 to -30 kJmol
  • -4 to -3 kJmol
  • -40 to -30 kJmol

Frage 21

Frage
A hydrophobic core in water is entropically favorable
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 22

Frage
Why is hydrophobic cores in water _favorable?
Antworten
  • They make the water molecules more ordered, decreasing entropy
  • They make the water molecules less ordered, increasing entropy

Frage 23

Frage
Why do hydrophobic proteins fold?
Antworten
  • Folded proteins have a reduced surface area, leading to a reduced number of organised water molecules, leading to a lower decrease of entropy
  • Folded proteins have a reduced surface area, leading to a reduced number of organised water molecules, leading to a lower increase of entropy

Frage 24

Frage
As water ordering decreases, entropy decreases
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 25

Frage
Why is energy needed to maintain the folding of a (hydrophobic) protein (i.e. from hydrogen bonds etc.)?
Antworten
  • Because the unfolded state of the protein is more entropically favorable than the folded state
  • Because though the folded protein is more entropically favorable, it's folding decreases entropy, which is unfavorable
  • So energy must be produced to maintain the fold

Frage 26

Frage
Heating denatures a protein because it breaks the bonds required to offset the negative change in entropy caused by the protein folding i.e, it makes ΔH less negative
Antworten
  • True
  • False

Frage 27

Frage
In protein folding, ΔH is negative, and -TΔS is positive
Antworten
  • True
  • False
