Class notes for peptides and proteins

- How are peptides formed? - Primary structure of peptides - How do proteins know how to fold? - Secondary structure of peptides - What are alpha-helices? - What are beta strands? - Structure of beta-sheet - Tertiary structure of peptides - What is a disulfide bond and how are they formed? - Quaternary structure of peptides

Antibiotics that weaken the peptidoglycan cell wall make a bacterium more prone to Choose one: O A. phagocytosis by macrophages. O B. detaching from surfaces. C. osmotic lysis. D. shrinkage in hypertonic solutions. E. starvation Solution C. osmotic lysis. Penicillins and cephalosporins, as well as other beta-lactam antibiotics targets the peptidoglycan synthesis making the cell wall weak leading to osmotic lysis of the bacterium.

Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) Questions with complete solutions ANP is released into the blood from the cells in the heart atria. The stimulus for its release is? increased stretch of these chambers, which is an indication of both increased blood volume and blood pressure ANP DECREASES both blood pressure and blood volume by binding to what target organs? blood vessels and kidneys Blood vessels Dilates systemic blood vessels, resulting in decreased total resistance. Systemic...

Amino acids are the monomers from which proteins are made. The general structure of an amino acid as: where NH2 represents an amine group, COOH represents a carboxyl group and R represents a side chain. The twenty amino acids that are common in all organisms differ only in their side group. A condensation reaction between two amino acids forms a peptide bond. Dipeptides are formed by the condensation of two amino acids. Polypeptides are formed by the condensation of many amino acids....
