BioChem C785 module 2 quiz, Answered Fully
Which image below shows the carboxyl group of an amino acid circled?
- An amino acid consists of an amino group, carboxyl group, a hydrogen and a variable
side chain arranged around a central alpha carbon atom. The backbone of an amino
acid is the entire amino acid molecule minus the variable side chain. The carboxyl
group of an amino acid is shown as COO_ or COOH attached to a central alpha carbon
atom of the amino acid.
Which of the following statements is NOT true about the different levels of a protein
structure?
- The interactions between the side chains of the amino acids make up the secondary
level structure of a protein
Which statement reflects the role that protein structure can play in the disease process?
- Mutation of an active site amino acid changes an enzyme's ability to bind a substrate.
Aggregation of the proteins is the main reason behind many neurodegenerative
diseases. Which one of the following mutations will likely cause a neurodegenerative
disease?
- Replacing a polar amino acid with a non polar amino acid
Which pair (protein interaction and technique) will likely denature a protein?
- Hydrogen bonds/ionic bonds: Change in pH
Which one of the following statements is NOT true about protein structure and
stability?
- Protein structure is not stabilized by the hydrophobic effect
Alkaline phosphatase is produced by bone and liver in the human body. The amount of
alkaline phosphatase in blood can help identify if a patient potentially has certain types
of bone and/or liver-related disease, including Paget disease, hepatitis, and certain
types of cancer. The optimal pH range for alkaline phosphatase activity is a pH of 8.0
to 10.0. What happens to the activity of the alkaline phosphatase at a pH of 2?
- Significantly decreases
