Write the three-letter abbreviations for the following tetrapeptide: Alanine Alanine (Ala / A) Leucine Leucine (Leu / L) Cysteine Cysteine (Cys / C) Methionine Methionine (Met / M) Focus Attention on the Side Group
34
Proteins Proteins are sequences of amino acid residues –Amino acid: carbon atom (C), amino group (NH 3 ),carboxyl group (COOH), variable sidechain (20 different types) –Amino acids are linked with the peptide bond Protein structure: –Primary – sequence of amino acids –Secondary – local 3D arrangement of amino acids –Tertiary – 3D structure of a complete protein –Quaternary – 3D structure of functional protein (complex)

Types of Proteins TypeExamples Structuraltendons, cartilage, hair, nails Contractilemuscles Transporthemoglobin Storagemilk Hormonalinsulin, growth hormone Enzymecatalyzes reactions in cells Protectionimmune response
36
Proteins Vary Tremendously in Size Insulin - A-chain of 21 residues, B-chain of 30 residues -total mol. wt. of 5,733 Glutamine synthetase - 12 subunits of 468 residues each - total mol. wt. of 600,000 Connectin proteins - alpha - MW 2.8 million! beta connectin - MW of 2.1 million, with a length of 1000 nm -it can stretch to 3000 nm!
37
Four Levels of Protein Structure Primary, 1 o –the amino acid sequence Secondary, 2 o –Local conformation of main-chain atoms ( and angles) Tertiary, 3 o –3-D arrangement of all the atoms in space (main-chain and side-chain) Quaternary, 4 o –3-D arrangement of subunit chains

Secondary Structure The two most common regular (repetitive) 2˚ structures are: -helix -sheet Both use hydrogen bonding between N-H & C=O of peptide group as primary stabilizing force.

Cytoplasm Nucleus DNA DNA is the genetic material within the nucleus. Central Dogma RNA Protein Replication The process of replication creates new copies of DNA. Transcription The process of transcription creates an RNA using DNA information. Translation The process of translation creates a protein using RNA information.

Translation The process of reading the RNA sequence of an mRNA and creating the amino acid sequence of a protein is called translation. Transcription Codon Translation DNA TTCAGTCAG template strand mRNA AAGUCAGUC Messenger RNA Protein LysineSerine Valine Polypeptide (amino acid sequence)
69
The “words” of the DNA “language” are triplets of bases called codons –3 bases or nucleotides make one codon –Each codon specifies an amino acid –The codons in a gene specify the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide Genetic information written in codons is translated into amino acid sequences
70
Virtually all organisms share the same genetic code All organisms use the same 20 aa Each codon specifies a particular aa The genetic code is the Rosetta stone of life Figure 10.8A
71
Tryptophan and Methionine have only 1 codon each All the rest have more than one AUG has a dual function 3 stop codons that code for termination of protein synthesis Redundancy in the code but no ambiguity Figure 10.8A
