Tertiary structures of proteins can be very complex. Analyzing and recognizing common structural patterns is the first step in u

nderstanding how proteins form higherâorder structures. Two terms, domain and motif (also called fold), describe protein structural patterns. Classify each characteristic as a domain or a motif.
a. Always independently stable
b. Retains native structure even when separated from the rest of the protein
c. β Barrel
d. Calcium-binding segments of calmodulin
e. An advantageous folding pattern composed of two or more secondary structure elements
f. Sometimes independently stable

Sedaia [141]3 years ago

Answer:

a. Always independently stable. Domain

b. Retains native structure even when separated from the rest of the protein. Domain

c. β Barrel. Motif

d. Calcium-binding segments of calmodulin. Motif

e. An advantageous folding pattern composed of two or more secondary structure elements. Domain

f. Sometimes independently stable. Motif

Explanation:  

a. Protein domains are evolutionary conserved and stable 3D structures formed by a series of amino acids joined by peptide bonds.

b. Domains are stable because they conserve their tridimensional structure in physiological conditions even if they are separated of the rest of the protein.

c. The ß-barrel motif is a type of motif localized in single-stranded DNA viruses.

d. Calmodulin is a protein that contains calcium-binding motifs that enable to sense intracellular calcium levels.

e. Domain folding patterns are critical transitional states that allow the proteins their interaction with specific ligands in different physiological conditions.

f. Motifs are sometimes independently stable, but due to their short length (3-15 amino acids), protein motifs are generally unstable in different conditions.

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Small and cool.

Explanation:

In a Hertzsprung russel diagram the diagonal with a negative slope is the main sequence, and it begins with the hottest stars at the top until they cool at the bottom.  The other diagonal represents size, with supergiants being the largest and white dwarfs being the smallest.
