Chymotrypsin, trypsin, and elastase are digestive enzymes called serine proteases. The serine proteases differ in substrate spec

ificity. Chymotrypsin cleaves peptide bonds after aromatic or bulky hydrophobic side chains, trypsin requires basic amino acid residues, and elastase cleaves bonds following small uncharged side chains. A chart of amino acids is available for your reference. Determine which specificity pocket is a part of each enzyme.

Answer:

Explanation:

1. charge in trypsin

: two other molecules in elastase

2. Chymotrypsin cleaves peptide bonds after bulky or aromatic side chains, such as those of the amino acids phenylalanine or tyrosine. The specificity pocket, or substrate-binding site, is deep and has hydrophobic side chains.  

Trypsin cleaves peptide bonds following basic amino acid side chains. Lysine and arginine both have basic amino acid side chains that are positively charged at pH 7. Trypsin's substrate-binding site contains a negatively charged amino acid residue.

Elastase cleaves peptide bonds after amino acids with small side chains, such as glycine, alanine, or valine. The specificity pocket for elastase has bulky side chains that block larger amino acid side chains, but can accomodate smaller side chains, such as the -H, -CH3, and -CH(CH3)2 side chains of glycine, alanine, and valine, respectively.

3. Their binding pockets

  •  chymotrypsin = deep & wide
  • elastase = aliphatic a.a. = shallow

In what ways do cells use energy
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Image result for In what ways do cells use energy

Cells do not use the energy from oxidation reactions as soon as it is released. Instead, they convert it into small, energy-rich molecules such as ATP and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), which can be used throughout the cell to power metabolism and construct new cellular components.

Which state of matter has particles that slide past each other while remaining in contact?
vivado [14]
I haven't taken biology since my freshman year of high school, so this is kind of a guess. But I know for sure it isn't a solid. So I would go with a gas.
