intrinsically disordered proteins:
a. help stabilize quaternary structures
b. can misfold and lead to aggregations
c. are typically made from hydrophilic residues to help interactions with water
d. all of above
Homework Answers
Answer b) can missfold and lead to aggregations
Generally it can result in misfolding and aggregation which are known to be associated with the pathogenesis of numerous diseases.
Changes in the environment and mutation of IDPs can be expected to affect their normal function and leading to misidentification and missignaling.

Q4: Tau proteins are abundant in neurons, and help to stabilize cellular microtubules. When denatured and unfolded, they can assemble to form plaques that are thought to be important in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease. For this system: (a) Calculate AG& if we assume that, at equilibrium, 10% of Tau proteins are found in the unfolded state. (b) Calculate the enthalpy of unfolding given that AS d = 98 v (c) If we add a drug that binds to the...

Proteins are polymers of amino acids that can exist in ordered structures stabilized by a variety of molecular interactions. However, when certain conditions are changed, the compact structure of a polypeptide chain may collapse into a random coil. This structural change may be regarded as a phase transition occurring at a characteristic transition temperature, the melting temperature, Tm, which increases with the strength and number of intermolecular interactions in the chain. A thermodynamic treatment allows predictions to be made of...

1.histones are proteins that make up nucleosomes. they bind to the backbone of DNA in chromosomes. A majority of the residues in these proteins must be ___ for this to occur a) hydrophobic b) neg charged c)hydrophilic and neutral d)pos charged e)cytseines 2. the stability of a protein secondary structure is mostly due to a) the hydrogen bonding between the amide groups within the backbone of the protein b) the attraction for water molecules by hydrophobic amino acid residues c)...

QUESTION 1 To study how proteins fold, scientists must be able to purify the protein of interest, use solvents like urea to denature the folded protein, and observe the process of refolding at successive time points. What is the effect of the solvents used in the denaturation process? a. The solvents break all noncovalent interactions. b. The solvents break all covalent interactions. c. The solvents create a new folded conformation. d. The solvents break some of the noncovalent interactions, resulting...
