Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Question
Answer
What is the proteome   entire set of proteins expressed by a genome.  
🗑
Why is the proteome larger than the genome   alternative RNA splicing and post translational modification create different proteins from 1 gene  
🗑
What is a protein polymer made up of   particular sequence of amino acids  
🗑
Why is the order of AA important   This determines protein structure and function  
🗑
What is the primary structure of proteins   specific order of AA  
🗑
What is the secondary structure of proteins   Hydrogen bonding (along the backbone of the protein strand)  
🗑
Name the 3 types of protein secondary structure   alpha helix beta pleated sheet (parallel or anti parallel) turns  
🗑
What are the 4 groups that surround a central carbon on any amino acid   COOH (acid) NH2 (base) H R group (this varies)  
🗑
What are the four types of AA   acidic basic polar non polar/hydrophobic  
🗑
What functional group denotes an acid   COOH/COO-  
🗑
What functional group denotes a base   NH2/NH3+  
🗑
What functional group is polar   OH  
🗑
What AA are hydrophilic   polar, acidic and basic  
🗑
What charge is on an ionised acidic AA   negative i.e. COO-  
🗑
What charge is on an ionised basic AA   positive i.e. NH3+  
🗑
Tertiary structure of a protein involves between what parts of a AA   R groups  
🗑
Name 3 types of interactions that occur at the tertiary/quatenary level   van der waal ionic disulphide bridge hydrogen hydrophobic  
🗑
What type of interaction is covalent at tertiary or quaternary level   disulphide bridge  
🗑
What is a prosthethic group   non protein unit tightly bound to a protein necessary for its function  
🗑
Give an example of a prosthetic group   Fe in haemoglobin for oxygen delivery  
🗑
What is the different between tertiary and quaternary level of protein structure   tertiary R groups within one polypeptide whereas quaternary interactions involve interactions between R groups on different polypeptide chains  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
