- Which of the following statements about protein is correct? (Choose three). * During polypeptide bond formation, the hydroxyl group is lost from its carboxyl group of one amino acid and a hydrogen atom is lost from its amino group of another amino acid Amino acid sequence of a protein determines its three-dimensional shape. pH change, organic solvents, heat, and chaperones are the factors responsible for the denaturation of proteins. Secondary protein structures such as alpha helices and beta pleated sheets are formed by multiple polypeptide chains. Different amino acids contain different side chains which make them unique.arrow_forwardIn your own words discuss the different structures (primary, secondary, tertiary, and Quaternary structures) of protein. What are the five factors that promote protein folding and stability. (Hint: One factor is the Hydrogen bond). Extra Hint: Another factor is the Hydrophobic effect.

Amino acids them selves are covalently, bound to gather, but for other forces are needed to maintain a functional proteins structure. Briefly describe these forces.arrow_forward
- Select the true statements about protein secondary structure. In an a-helix, the side chains are located on the outside of the helix. The secondary level of protein structure refers to the spatial arrangements of short segments of the protein. In a B-pleated sheet, the side chains are located between adjacent segments. Peptide bonds stabilize secondary structure. The x-helix is held together by hydrogen bonds between the amide N-H and C=O groups. Incorrectarrow_forwardWhich statement about quaternary structure is TRUE? Quaternary structure is unaffected by acids or heat. Quaternary structure is determined by the same interaction that holds an α-helix together. Quaternary structure is how prosthetic groups are held in a protein. Quaternary structure is the position of subunits in the overall structure of a protein. All proteins have quaternary structurearrow_forwardThe lipid bilayer is formed so that water dissolves the phospholipids.
