Question
Underline the monomer(s) in the following list: phosphatidylcholine, Glucose, hexokinase, glutamic acid, triacylglycerol, glycogen, hemoglobin, alanine, ribosomal RNA, uridine monophosphate, oleic acid, mitochondrial DNA. Which part(s) of an amino acid is (are) responsible for its distinctive characteristics? Which part(s) of an amino acid can be engaged in a peptide bond? Which part(s) of an amino acid can be involved in an interaction that contributes to the tertiary structure of a protein? What is the full name of the peptide with the sequence AGRPSN? Which type(s) of bond contribute(s) to the maintenance of the primary structure of a protein? What is the main structural difference between fibrous and globular proteins? Underline the amino that you will expect to be exposed on the surface of the transmembrane domain of a protein: Valine, Serine, Glutamine, Tryptophan, Cysteine, Methionine, Tyrosine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Leucine. What are the compositional and structural differences between RNAs and DNAs? What make up the backbone of the DNA double helix?Explanation / Answer
This question has multiple sub questions. As per Chegg’s policy, I am answering the first 4 subquestions.
1.
Glucose is monomer of glycogen and starch.
Glutamic acid and alanine are monomer of proteins.
Uridine monophosphate (UMP) is monomer of RNA.
2.
Side chain (R group).
It involves in interaction with other R groups in proteins, undergoes post-translational modifications (phosphorylation, geranylation, sumoyilation etc).
3.
Amino and carboxyl groups.
Amino (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) groups of alpha carbon involve in peptide bond.
4.
Amino acid side chains
Tertiary structure results from interactions between amino acid side chains, or between side chains and the polypeptide backbone.
