1 points QUESTION 5 My protease has a globular structure with beta sheets, alpha helix and many sharp turns It has a pocket where it binds amino acids and it has a flexible hinge that is regulated to cover the pocket so the enzyme can be turned off. Match the amino acid to the MOST APPROPRIATE location in on the enzyme. open hinge closed hinge none of these a sharp fixed turn in the protein backbone a flexible hinge E. cysteine proline C. glycine D the active site E internal within the enzyme histidine phenylalanine external on the enzyme F. |serine

Explanation / Answer

Serine will be present in the active site of the enzyme beacuse it could be a serine protease.

Glycine and proline are the amino caid present at the sharp turn in the protein structure.

Glycine is present in the flexible hinge of the enzyme.

Histidine is a mino acid with polar side chain so it will be present at the outer/external surface of the enzyme

Phenyalanine is a nonpolar aminoacid so it will be present at the internal within the enzyme.
