1 The three important structural features of proteins: a. Primary (1 o ) The amino acid sequence (coded by genes) b. Secondary (2 o ) The interaction of amino acids that are close together or far apart in the sequence c. Tertiary (3 o ) The interaction of amino acids that are far apart in sequence In 2 o and 3 o the primary interaction is noncovalent Some proteins have quaternary structure (4 o ): noncovalent interaction of multiple polypeptide chains (subunits) Native structure (conformation) biological function

3 Peptide bonds link amino acids in proteins Figure 4.1 Residue or side chain Amino-terminus Carboxylterminus
4 Peptide bonds link amino acids in proteins Primary sequence Alanine Ala (A) Serine Ser (S) Dipeptide Ala-Ser or AS
5 Peptide bonds link amino acids in proteins Primary sequence has directionality Figure 4.2 Important: the sequence Tyr-Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu is not the same as Leu-Phe-Gly-Gly-Tyr
6 Figure 4.3-the polypeptide backbone is rich With hydrogen bond donors and acceptors How many amino acids are typically found in polypeptide chains? 1 amino acid molecular weight is ~110 g/mol or 110 Da (Daltons)

8 Practice Problem Draw the chemical structure of the tripeptide Glu Ser Cys at ph 7. Answer the following with regard to this tripeptide: 1. Indicate the charge present on any ionizable group(s). 2. Indicate, using an arrow, which covalent bond is the peptide bond. 3. What is the net, overall charge of this tripeptide at ph 7? 4. What is this peptide called using the one-letter code system for amino acids?
9 Double bond character of the peptide bond Bond lengths reveal C-N is between a single and a double bond. (Figure 4.7)
10 Trans and Cis conformations of a peptide group Figure 4.8 Nearly all peptide groups in proteins are in the trans conformation
11 The N-C a and C a -CO bonds are not rigid and rotation is possible Figure 4.9 Phi angle Psi angle C a Are all angles allowed?
12 Ramachandran Plot Figure 4.10
13 The amino acid cysteine also stabilizes proteins through the formation of a disulfide bond. Figure 4.4 Figure 4.5 Insulin
14 Secondary structure of proteins Alpha helix Pitch is ~5.4 Å or 3.6 AAs
15 The coil in the alpha helix allows for Hydrogen bonding Figure 4.12
16 The stability of the alpha helix is dependent upon the residues attached. Gly and Pro are not prevalent in most a-helix
17 The alpha helix can sometimes be amphipathic.
18 Amphipathic a-helices are often Found on the surface of proteins hydrophilic hydrophobic A dehydrogenase globular protein
19 Secondary Structure the Beta (b) sheet or Beta strand Figure the peptide chain is more elongated than In the alpha helix.
20 Secondary Structure the Beta (b) sheet or Beta strand Antiparallel N C
21 Secondary Structure the Beta (b) sheet or Beta strand Parallel C C
22 Figure both types of b-sheets are possible in one protein. C C N
23 Figure 4.18 b-sheets can be found with a twist
24 The beta sheet. Side chains alternate from one side to another
25 The ability for polypeptides to reverse direction requires reverse turns and/or loops Figure 4.19 A protein involved in Fatty acid metabolism
26 Type I b turn Reverse Turns and loops Figure 4.20 Hydrogen bonding
27 Tertiary Structure of Proteins Supersecondary structures often called motifs Figure 4.27
28 Tertiary Structure of Proteins Domains are a combination of motifs Figure 4.28 Protein found on surface of some Immune system cells
29 Tertiary structure of proteins Domains in Pyruvate kinase this protein has 3 domains

32 Collagen is 35% Glycine 21% Proline + Hydroxyproline The repeating unit is Gly X Y X is usually Pro Y is usually Hyp triple helix is packed with Glycines (red)

34 Globular Proteins- very compact and water soluble WHY? Figure Myoglobin (153 amino acids)

36 Quaternary Structure-multiple polypeptide strands Intermingle though noncovalent interactions. Figure 4.29 A dimer of two subunits (polypeptides)
37 Figure 4.30 Hemoglobin: a tetramer protein This protein has primary, secondary tertiary and quaternary structures
38 How do proteins fold and unfold? The information for proteins to fold is contained in the amino acid sequence. Can proteins fold by themselves or do they need help? Is there a way in which we can predict from the primary sequence how a protein will fold??
39 First, we must denature a protein and see if it will spontaneously refold to the native structure How can we denature proteins? a. Reducing agents 2-mercaptoethanol break disulfide bonds b. heat c. acids or bases d. heavy metals (good Lewis acids bind to cysteine) e. chaotropic agent-urea (help weaken hydrogen bonding and eventually disrupt hydrophobic core.)

41 Anfinsen s protein folding Experiment. Figure 4-32 Denature Protein with b-mercaptoethanol and Urea.
42 Anfinsen result after removal of urea and most of the b-mercaptoethanol Enzyme slowly regains activity!! Native conformation is re-established Conclusion: primary sequence specifies conformation
