Question | Answer |
---|---|
Keq | =Ka= [H+][A-]/[HA] |
pKa | = -log(Ka) |
pH | = -log[H+] = pKa + log([deprotonated]/[protonated]) |
inflection point | where pH=pKa |
buffer | weak acid + conjugate base |
dE | = Ef - Ei = Q + W |
H | = E + PV |
dG | = dH - TdS = dGo + RTln([p]/[r]) |
R (constant) | 0.008314kJ/mol*K |
avg wt. of an aa | 110Da |
Ramachandran Plot | shows most likely orientation |
amino acid structure bonds | 1: covalent peptide bonds 2: backbone H-bonds 3: interactions of aa sc w/ eachother and backbone atoms 4: weak non-covalent interactions |
alpha helix | rise/residue=1.5A rise/turn=5.4A residues/turn=3.6 right-handed i to i+4 C=O- - -H-N hydrogen bond |
beta sheet | antiparallel: one chain -->, other chain <--; straight bonds parallel: both chains -->; diagonal bonds |
side chain interactions w/ alpha helices | adjacent i to i+3 or i to i+4 pseudo 7 repeat |
alpha keratin | dimer of a-helices high Cys content -- disulfide bonds 7-residue repeats where a & d are nonpolar coiled coil |
silk fibroin | antiparellel B-sheets arranged parallel alternating sequence:Gly-X-Gly, X=Ala, Ser all Gly on one side and X on other |
collagen | basic unit= tropocollagen, 3 left-handed chains interwoven --> right-handed superhelical twist 33% Gly, also some unusual aa's (face center) Pro permits sharp turns covalent x-links between Lys and His diseases: Ehlers-Danlos & brittle bone |
globular proteins | hydrophilic surface, hydrophobic interior generally all a-helices xor B-sheets supersecondary structures or motifs |
domains | functionslly independent |
