Proteins

Proteins

1. Phosphorylation

   • Changes the activity of a protein already formed 
   • Serine of PKU enzyme
     • Liver Inc. glucose prod. w Adrenaline
   • Instead of Serine --> Arginine
     • thus can not be Phosphorylized -> thus func isn't stopped 
     • Muscle = increases glycolysis in resp. Adrenaline

2. Structure

   • Primary
     • AA seq
   • 2nd
     • Regular
       • Alpha helix
       • Beta Sheets
     • Irregular
       • The residues are still in the a/B regions, however they aren't occur repetitively + continuously
   • Tert
     • Side Chain interactions
   • Quart
