Proteins
What is a peptide bond?
A peptide bond is a bond between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amino group of the next amino acid
The site on the enzyme where molecules other than the substrate can bind to regulate enzymes
Allosteric site
What bond(s) is/are used to form a protein's secondary structure
hydrogen bonds
Competitive Inhibition
Molecule other than the substrate binds to active site and blocks the substrate from binding to the enzyme
How is a peptide bond formed?
Dehydration synthesis
Noncompetitive Inhibition
Inhibitor binds to a site on the enzyme other than the active site --> changes active site from high affinity state to low affinity state
What bonds are used to form a protein's tertiary structure?
Lots of bonds and forces! Disulfide linkages, h-bonds, ionic bonds, Van der Waals forces, etc.
Describe feedback inhibition
What do chaperones do?
Bind with newly synthesized folding and help them fold correctly
