Amino Acids and Proteins
1. What are the structural features of amino
acids with an emphasis on essential amino
acids?
2. Write the properties of amino acids:
zwitterion, pka, pKb, amphoteric character,
isoelectric point, and electrophoresis.
3. Write the mechanism of peptide bond
formation and what are its structural features.
4. What are the different types of proteins and
their function?
5. Explain the meaning and importance of the
primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary
structures of a protein and the factors that cause
its denaturation.
Histones are proteins found in eukaryotic cell nuclei. They wrap DNA around itself, thereby compacting the phosphate-rich DNA the nuclei. Histones have a very high pI, usually around 10.8. What amino acid residues must exist in relatively large numbers in Histones? In what way do these residues contribute to the strong binding of Histones to DNA? Where do you expect the majority of these residues to be situated on the histone protein structure?
