- Describe the general structure of a type 2 alpha helix protein. Explain how type 2 alpha helix transmembrane domains can be used to form pathways for large polar and charged molecules to traverse the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane.The diagram to the right illustrates the inter-actions of the amino acid side chains of two a-helical polypeptide strands in a coiled-coil, viewed end-on and projected along the helix axes from the N-terminal to the C-terminal end. Are the macrodipoles of the two a- helices oriented parallel or anti-parallel?

- a. 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'1. Consider the following α helix from myoglobin at pH 7.

The following amino acids of your protein were predicted to participate in an alpha helix: DRMVEHACKSI. a. Plot these amino acids in the helical wheel projection below. b. Is the alpha helix in your protein hydrophobic, amphipathic or hydrophobic? c. Would you expect this helix to be on the interior of the protein, exposed, or partially exposed?. A protein has been sequenced after cleavage of disulfide bonds. The protein is known to contain 3 Cys residues, located as shown below. Only one of the Cys has a free - SH group and the other two are involved in an -s-s- bond. A Phe Cys « N-terminus Cys- - Met Cys- C-terminus The only methionine and the only aromatic amino acid (Phe) in this protein are in the positions indicated. Cleavage of the intact protein (i.e., with disulfide bonds intact) by either cyanogen bromide or chymotrypsin does not break the protein into two peptides. Where is the -s-s- bond (i.e., AB, BC, or AC)?
