  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    Read the following passage to answer the following questions:

    Proteins are polypeptide chains made up of amino acids. There are 20 types of amino acids joined together by peptide bond between amino and carboxylic group. There are two kinds of amino acids, Essential amino acids and Non-essential amino acids. The Primary structure of protein is the linear sequence of amino acids in a polypeptide chain. The first amino acid of sequence is called N-terminal amino acids and last amino acid of peptide chain is called C-terminal amino acids. The secondary structure proteins forms helix. There are three types of secondary structure: a helix, P pleated and collagen helix. In tertiary structure long protein chain is folded upon itself like a hollow woollen ball to give three-dimensional view of protein. In quaternary structure, each polypeptide develops its own tertiary structure and function as subunit of protein.

    Q. Glycine and Alanine are different with respect to one substituent on the α-carbon. What are the other common substituent groups?

    Solution

    In both glycine and alanine, the common substituent groups are; a carboxyl group (COOH), an amine group (NH2)and a side chain of a single hydrogen atom (-H).

    Q. There is extensive diversity of protein molecules is due to

    Solution

    Protein is a polypeptide chain made up of amino acids. The amino acids consist of amine group (NH2-) and the carboxyl group(COOH-) at the end and a side chain of R- group which is specific to a particular amino acid. This specific group brings a variability to the proteins e.g, if R group is H it is glycine while if it is CH, It is alanine. The sequence of amino acids determines the protein. Therefore, diversity of protein molecules is due to the different sequence of amino acids linked with the protein molecules.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    Read the following passage to answer the following questions:

    The enzyme molecule operates by chemically binding with the substrate molecule, to form an enzyme-substrate complex. The enzyme's tertiary structure consists of a unique pocket or site on which the substrate molecules can become attached and interact subsequently. This brings about an interaction between the specific active sites in the enzyme molecule and the reactive sites in the substrate molecule. The enzyme now breaks down the substrate into- products. The products initially remain attached to the enzyme for a short while forming an enzyme product complex. The products get released from the enzyme molecule subsequently. The enzyme is now ready to receive another substrate molecule again. Thus, the same enzyme can be used again and again.

    Q. Which of the following is the best evidence for the lock and key theory of enzyme reaction:

    Solution

    The compound similar in structure to substrate block the active site of the enzyme. Therefore, the substrate fail to unite with the enzyme and thus the reaction is inhibited.
