Question Answer
Amino Acid Basic Structure
Structures & Classification
General Properties : Amino Acid with non-polar R 1. R does not bind or give protons 2. Oily 3. Hydrophobic
General Properties : Polar, uncharged R 1. Zero charge at neutral pH 2. Can form hydrogen bond 3. Cysteine forms disulfide bond
General Properties : Polar, acidic R 1. Donate protons 2. At neutral pH, R is fully ionized. 3. Contain -ve charge carboxylate group (-COO-)
General Properties : Polar, Basic R 1. Accept protons 2. At neutral pH, it fully ionized. 3. Positive charged
Primary Structure (forms peptide bond)
Secondary Structure Alpha Helix & Beta Sheet (forms Hydrogen bond)
Tertiary Structure - Hydrophobic inside - Hydrophilic outside
Quaternary Structure Arrangement of two or more polypeptide chain
