Describe the structure of an antibody molecule. MUST refer to four specific features of its primary,...
the conformation or shape of a protein molecule directly determines its function. There are four orders of protein structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary.
20 Marks) Question 3 a) The structure of proteins is described at four levels: primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary Briefly explain what is referred to by each of these terms. Why are these distinctions useful? [5 marks] b) Each level of protein structure is stabilised by chemical bonds and interactions: List the bonds and/or effects primarily responsible for stabilising each level of structure. [5 marks] c) The illustration below shows a molecule of haemoglobin. Describe TWO (2) aspects of haemoglobin...
1. Contrast the structure and function of myoglobin and hemoglobin. Describe the primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary structure of both proteins. Describe their motifs and domains if appropriate. 2. How similar are the mammalian hemoglobin and myoglobin (in terms of amino acid composition)? 3. Recall the functions and structure of leghemoglobins, chlorocruorins, hemerythrin and hemocyanin. In what organisms are those proteins found? How are this globins different from mammalian globins? 4. Not all O2 molecules bind to each of the...
