Provide a comprehensive discussion using one molecular property. 3. Discuss two metabolic disorders which are caused by protein misfolding. Explain the metabolic consequence of the disorder. 4. If a non-science person asks you what protein folding is and how the concept is related to metabolic disorders, how are you going to explain the concept? (please summarize the concepts used, thank you!)3a) Secondary (2°) structure in proteins refers to two specific conformations a region of a protein can take on, the a-helix and the b-pleated sheet. Briefly describe or explain how 2° structure forms/what causes 2° structure to form in a region of a protein.You analyze a protein of 100 kDa using SDS-PAGE in the absence and presence of �-mercaptoethanol (BME) and observe the following band pattern in the gels: Which of the following statements about the protein is correct?

- 1.Describe in detail how to detect the primary structure of protein. 2.Given a mixture of lysine,histidine and cysteine.The isoelectronic point of the amino acids are as follows: histidine:7.64 lysine:9.74 cysteine:5.02 Show how you will separate the mixture into the pure forms. State and describe any instrument that you will use to separate the components in the mixture.Which of the following statements are correct about the native state of a protein (select all that apply)? A. Polar sidechains commonly interact with water B. Hydrophobic amino acids tend to be on surface of protein C. The sidechains of polar amino acids are most commonly found in the central core of a protein D. Formation of an alpha-helix is primarily driven by hydrogen bonds between the protein main chain, not sidechains. E. Secondary structure is largely driven by hydrophobic interactionsa. Suppose that the R group of a histidine residue in a protein in its native tertiary structure is buried in the interior of the protein and is involved in a salt bridge (ionic interaction) with an oppositely charged residue. Unfolding the protein exposes both of the charged groups to water. Would you expect the pKa of the His R group (side chain) in the native protein to be a) higher or b) lower than the pKa of the same residue in the unfolded protein? Why? b. Is the exocyclic NH2 in cytosine acidic or basic? Why? NH, `N'

State and describe any instrument that you will use to separate the components in the mixture.4) For various amino acid pairs (for example: F to A, E to R, D to N, V to L, S to W), ask yourself: a) Based on what you know about the chemical properties of the side chains, what effect would you expect on the stability of the protein if you mutated one residue of the pair into the other in the interior of the protein? What forces might have an impact on this change (ie: what types of interactions would you expect that amino acid to be involved in?) How would your answer change if the amino acid were located on the surface of the protein? b) c)11. Below is a folding energy funnel describing folding energy landscape of a protein. The width of the funnel indicates the entropy of the protein, and the height corresponds to the free energy. A) If A is the native fold structure, which state is a molten globule? How does this state differ from A in term of structures. B) Does this protein have multiple folding pathways or just one? C) which state has the lowest free energy? D) According to the width of the funnel, the native state B of the protein has the lowest entropy. If the protein fold A spontaneously to this state, does it violate the 2nd law of thermodynamics? Why or why not? (Hint: in the folding funnel, only the entropy of the protein alone is considered). E) Does the native state also have the lowest enthalpy. What makes the enthalpy decrease as the protein folds? 12. List four methods by which a protein can be denatured and briefly describe how these methods act to disrupt protein structure.
