BioChem C7:E1

Chapter 7 Exam 1

QuestionAnswer
proteins transport functions myoglobin (o2 thouhout muscles), hemoglobin (o2 transport in blood) structural
actin (protein structural function) forms microfilaments in cells
tubuin (protein structural function) dimers constiture microtubles
keratin (protein structural function) filaments constitute the bulk of animal hair
collagen (protein structural function) is a major protein in connective tissue
protein motor function myosin interacts with actin filaments to facilitate muscular movement, kinesin moves along microtubules to support a variety of cellular functions
protein other functions catalysis, immunity, regulation of gene expression
myogobin hemeprotein, monomer, primarily in muscle, o2 binds to the heme group of in a hyperbolic manner, 3D
hemoglobin tetra (a2:b2), erythrocytes, 02 binds to the heme group ina sigmoidal manner, quat
myoglobin structure tertiary
hemoglobin structure quad
T or F, the similarities in structure and sequence between myoglobin and hemoglobin indicate a common evolutionary orin T
T or F , proteins can act in the following way, transport, structural, motor function, immunity T
T or F, myoglobin transports o2 through the blood F
o2 transport is necessary for life
hemoglobin mutation can lead to disease
Heme is a ______ group found in myoglobin and hemoglobin prosthetic group
prosthetic group definition organic molecule bound to protein that aids protein funtion
heme is a _______ that chelates iron for oxygen transport porphyrin
myoglobin transports o2 vis the ____ in heme Fe
what amino acid residue plays a key role in anchoring both 02 and iron His
myoglobin binds to o2 in a hyperbolic trend true
Mb and Hb are similar in their secondary and tertiary structures true
Homologous protiens evolving from a common ancestor gene through genetic mutation
invariant residues identical in homologous proteins, essential for structure or function of the proteins, cannot be replaced by other residues
conservative residues when an amino acid can be replaced by another similar amino acid
variable residues not involved in the structure or function of the protein, can be substituted by other dissimilar amino acid (
o2 can bind cooperatively to hemoglobin as the protein shifts from the deoxy to the oxy conformation modulatioin of hemoglobin function in vivo (bohr)
hemogloin binds in a _____ curve sigmoidal, indicative of cooperatively
cooperativity binding of 02 to one subunit induces easier binding to other subunits
bohr effect the reduction of hemoglobins oxygen bindin affinity when the pH decreases

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
