Catalysis of the cleavage of peptide bonds in small peptides b
Question

Question asked by Filo student

Catalysis of the cleavage of peptide bonds in small peptides by a proteolytic enzyme is described in the following table. (TABLE CAN'T COPY)The arrow indicates the peptide bond cleaved in each case.(a) If a mixture of these peptides were presented to the enzyme with the concentration of each peptide being the same, which peptide would be digested most effectively? Least effectively? Briefly explain your reasoning, if any.(b) The experiment is performed again on another peptide with the following results:EN 9 18 EMTT? F On the basis of these data, suggest the features of the amino acid sequence that dictate the specificity of enzyme.

The chemiosmotic coupling hypothesis of oxidative phosphorylation proposes that adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is formed because
  1. A proton gradient forms across the inner membrane
  2. There is a change in the permeability of the inner mitochondrial membrane toward adenosine diphosphate (ADP)
  3. High energy bonds are formed in mitochondrial proteins
  4. ADP is pumped out of the matrix into the intermembrane space
