    1.. Example questions to guide you through the mechanism study of Serine proteases Describe substrate binding, including the role and chemical nature of the "specificity pocket" in chymotrypsin, and which peptide bond in the substrate (relative to the specificity group) will be cleaved. Draw the structure of the catalytic triad at the beginning of the reaction, and explain how the states of ionization and hydrogen bonding pattern of those 3 groups change step by step during catalysis. Explain the role...

    Cysteine proteases are catalytically homologous to serine proteases, where the active site serine is replaced with a cysteine. What would be the appropriate order of the mechanism? Just write the numbers in order. Peptide bond is cleaved and C becomes sp2 The acyl-enzyme is formed by the transfer of the proton from the positively charged histidine residue, acting as a general acid, to the amino group of the substrate. The side-chain of the amino acid residue immediately before the scissile...
