26 Folding of a Globular Protein

27 Unfolding of a Globular Protein

28 Forces Stabilizing Tertiary Structure
Hydrogen Bonds

29 Forces Stabilizing Tertiary Structure
Disulfide Bonds (Covalent)

30 Forces Stabilizing Tertiary Structure

31 Denaturing/Unfolding Proteins
Break forces stabilizing them Mercaptoethanol/dithiothreitol - break disulfide bonds Detergent - disrupt hydrophobic interactions Heat - break hydrogen bonds pH - change charge/alter ionic interactions Chelators - bind metal ions

32 Denaturing/Unfolding Proteins

33 Folding of a Globular Protein

34 Energetics of Folding

35 Protein Structural Domains
Leucine Zipper Protein Structural Domains Leucine Zipper - Prot.-Prot. and Prot.-DNA Helix Turn Helix - Protein-DNA Zinc Fingers SH2 Domains - Protein-Protein Pleckstrin Homology Domains - Signaling (Membrane) Leucine Zipper Zinc Finger Helix-Turn-Helix SH2 Domain Pleckstrin Domains

36 Folding Errors

37 Prion Replication Model

38 Amyloids and Disease Amyloids - a collection of improperly folded protein aggregates found in the human body. When misfolded, they are insoluble and contribute to some twenty human diseases including important neurological ones involving prions. Amyloid diseases include (affected protein in parentheses) - Alzheimer’s disease (Amyloid β) Parkinson’s disease (α-synuclein) Huntington’s disease (huntingtin), Rheumatoid arthritis (serum amyloid A), Fatal familial insomnia (PrPSc)

39 Protein Processing GroEL / GroEL-GroES
Chaperonins - Proper folding - environment for hydrophobic sequences GroEL / GroEL-GroES Proteasomes - Degradation to oligopeptides of about 8 amino acids each

40 Role of Ubiquitin Flag for protein destruction by proteasome

41 Intrinsically Disordered Proteins
Not all proteins folded into stable structures Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs) have regions favoring disorder IDP regions tend to lack hydrophobic residues Rich in polar amino acids and proline IDPs may favor adaptation to binding another protein IDPs may favor being modified IDPs may be more involved in signaling and regulation Non-IDPs more involved in catalysis and transport Metamorphic Proteins May adopt more than one stable structure Lymphotactin - monomeric receptor. Binds heparin as dimer

42 Protein Structure Primary – Amino Acid Sequence
Secondary / Supersecondary – Repeating Structures – short range forces Tertiary – Folded structures – longer range interactions
