"tertiary structure of a protein is maintained by (list the interactions)"

1 answer:

7 0

Protein tertiary structures are known to be a three dimensional structure of a protein with a single polypeptide chain (backbone) and one or more protein secondary structures known as protein domains.

Tertiary Structure Interactions

1) Hydrophobic Interactions: they are non- covalent bonds and very important in the formation of tertiary structure.

2) Ionic Bonds: the interaction of both positive and negative amino acids forms a bond that helps to stabilize the protein molecules.

3) Hydrogen Bonds: this bond exit between the amino acid with hydrophilic side chain found on the surface of the molecules and water molecules in a solution.

4) Disulfide Bridges: it is a strong covalent bond commonly found between cysteine residues in close proximity space.

What molecules need to travel through ATP synthase to help it create ATP?

Anna [14]

Answer

Hydrogen ion movement form ATP in ATP synthase .

Explanation:

ATP synthase is present in mitochondrial membrane when pass hydrogen ion in to lumen of mitochondria and due to proton gradient generate ATP molecule with pass of hydrogen ion into lumen ATP is formed from ADP and inorganic phosphorous molecule . Passing of three hydrogen io generate one ATP molecule .So movement of hydrogen ion is directly related to ATP synthases.
