Descriptive notes on polypeptides
Polypeptides,peptides, types of peptides, structure of dipeptide, tripeptide and oligopeptide and different functions of peptide
Peptides are short chains of amino acids linked by peptide bonds. They are distinguished from proteins by typically containing fewer than 50 amino acid units. Peptides are formed through condensation reactions between carboxyl and amino groups of separate amino acids, releasing a water molecule. Peptide bonds are rigid and planar, contributing to protein structure stability. Peptides serve many important biological functions and can be classified based on their production method, including through ribosomal translation, nonribosomal synthesis, and enzymatic digestion of proteins in foods. Bioactive peptides derived from food proteins can have beneficial effects like lowering blood pressure, cholesterol, and antimicrobial properties.
Peptides and proteins structure and functionsRamesh Gupta
Peptides and proteins are polymers of amino acids. Their structure and function depend on the nature, sequence, and spatial arrangement of amino acids. Peptides generally have fewer than 100 amino acids, while proteins have 100 or more. Many peptides are formed by protein breakdown. Examples of physiologically active peptides include glutathione, bradykinin, angiotensin, vasopressin, oxytocin, and TRH. Proteins perform functions like maintaining pH and osmotic balance. They also include enzymes, hormones, and structural components of tissues.
This document provides an overview of protein chemistry and amino acids. It defines amino acids as organic compounds containing amino and carboxyl groups. Amino acids combine via peptide bonds to form proteins. There are 20 standard amino acids that make up human proteins. Amino acids are classified based on structure, side chains, and metabolic fate. They have various physical and chemical properties important for protein structure and function. Amino acid derivatives also have biological significance as neurotransmitters, hormones, and drugs.
Purines and pyrimidines are heterocyclic nitrogen-containing compounds that are major components of nucleotides, which build DNA and RNA. They function as building blocks of nucleic acids and are involved in various cellular processes as components of coenzymes and metabolic regulators. Nucleotides are synthesized through both de novo and salvage pathways. The de novo synthesis of purines involves multiple steps utilizing various substrates and is regulated at several points to control nucleotide levels. IMP is an early intermediate that is converted to AMP and GMP through reciprocal regulation. Purine degradation yields uric acid, while ingested nucleic acids undergo digestion and absorption as nucleosides and bases to contribute to nucleotide synthesis.

The document also discusses the physical, chemical, and biological properties of specific amino acids like alanine, valine, leucine, and others. It provides information on isoelectric points and gives examples of biochemical tests used to identify different amino acids.
- Proteins have four levels of structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. The primary structure is the linear sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. Secondary structure involves hydrogen bonding that forms alpha helices and beta sheets. Tertiary structure is the 3D shape formed by interactions between different parts of the polypeptide. Quaternary structure refers to the assembly of multiple polypeptide subunits.
Fatty acid metabolism is regulated through acetyl-CoA carboxylase, which catalyzes the committed step of fatty acid biosynthesis. Acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity is controlled by hormones like insulin, glucagon, and epinephrine in response to energy levels. Insulin stimulates fatty acid synthesis by activating acetyl-CoA carboxylase through dephosphorylation. Glucagon and epinephrine inhibit fatty acid synthesis by phosphorylating and inactivating acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Fatty acid oxidation is regulated by fatty acid levels and is stimulated by hormones like glucagon and epinephrine through lipolysis and phosphorylation of enzymes.

Amino acids are organic compounds that contain an amino group, a carboxyl group, a central carbon atom, and a specific side chain. They are classified as essential, non-essential, or conditional depending on whether the human body can synthesize them. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins and participate in many important biological functions and cellular processes. They have various physical and chemical properties depending on their specific structure and side chain, and many amino acids have medicinal properties and play roles in treating diseases.
Peptide bonds form during translation within ribosomes and connect amino acids into polypeptide chains that fold into protein structures. A peptide bond is a covalent bond formed through a dehydration synthesis reaction between the carboxyl group of one amino acid and the amine group of the next. This reaction involves the loss of a water molecule as the carboxyl oxygen and amine hydrogen are removed to connect the amino acids. Peptide bonds make up the backbone of proteins by linking the 20 common amino acids together end to end.
Enzymes are protein catalysts that speed up biochemical reactions without being consumed. They achieve high reaction rates through substrate binding and shape complementarity. Enzyme activity is affected by factors like temperature, pH, and salt concentration that can alter protein structure. Most enzymes exhibit high specificity for their substrate. Inhibition studies provide information about enzyme mechanisms and active sites. Regulation of enzyme activity occurs through feedback inhibition, allosteric regulation, covalent modification like phosphorylation, and conversion of inactive zymogens to active forms.

Proteins have complex 4-level structures (primary to quaternary) that allow for their diverse functions like transport and muscle movement. Nucleic acids DNA and RNA contain nucleotides and code or aid in protein synthesis to pass on traits.
Proteins have four levels of structural organization: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. The primary structure refers to the linear sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. Secondary structure involves local folding patterns like alpha helices and beta sheets. Tertiary structure describes the overall 3D shape of a single polypeptide chain. Quaternary structure is the 3D structure formed by the assembly of multiple polypeptide subunits. The structures at each level are stabilized by interactions between the R groups of amino acids in the chain.
This document discusses protein structure and synthesis. It begins by defining proteins and peptides, and the 20 amino acids that make up proteins. It then describes the four levels of protein structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. The primary structure is the linear sequence of amino acids in the polypeptide chain. Secondary structure results from hydrogen bonding within the chain, forming structures like alpha helices. Tertiary structure describes the final 3D shape from chain folding. Quaternary structure involves the interaction of multiple peptide chains in an oligomeric protein. The document also outlines peptide bond formation and different peptide synthesis methods.

Protein, RNA and DNA are made up of smaller building blocks. Protein is made from amino acids that are linked through peptide bonds. RNA and DNA are made from nucleotides that contain a phosphate group, a sugar (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA), and a nitrogenous base. There are four levels of protein structure - primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary. RNA and DNA store and transmit genetic information through their structures and functions such as replication, transcription and translation.
non ribosomal peptide synthesis (molecular biology)IndrajaDoradla
Non-ribosomal peptides are synthesized by large enzyme complexes called nonribosomal peptide synthetases. These synthetases are independent of mRNA and each can produce only one peptide. Nonribosomal peptides often contain non-proteinogenic amino acids and modifications like methyl groups. They have a diverse range of biological activities including being antibiotics, siderophores, toxins, and pigments. Nonribosomal peptide synthesis involves amino acid activation, attachment to carrier proteins, elongation via peptide bond formation, and termination through hydrolysis or cyclization.
1. The document discusses the primary structure of proteins, which is the linear sequence of amino acids that make up the polypeptide chain.
2. Determining the primary structure involves identifying the amino acid composition through acid hydrolysis, and sequencing the amino acids through methods like Edman degradation or by using enzymes like carboxypeptidase.
3. Understanding the primary structure is important because the sequence of amino acids determines a protein's function, and many genetic diseases are caused by changes to this sequence.

Example
Amino acids are organic compounds containing amino and carboxylic acid groups. There are about 300 amino acids in nature but only 20 are found in proteins. Amino acids are linked together via peptide bonds to form polypeptide chains and proteins. There are four levels of protein structure - primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary - that determine a protein's shape and function. Proteins can be classified as simple proteins which break down into amino acids, or conjugated proteins which break down into a protein and non-protein component like lipids or carbohydrates.
This document discusses the structure and function of macromolecules. It focuses on proteins, which are polymers of amino acids that fold into complex shapes to perform various functions in the body. The four levels of protein structure are described as primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. Lipids are also covered, with details about their hydrophobic nature and roles as fats, phospholipids in cell membranes, and steroids like cholesterol.
16. Which of the following are generally true about Gram negative cel.pdfhardjasonoco14599
16. Which of the following are generally true about Gram negative cell envelope? a.
Lipopolysaccharide is covalently attached to the N-acetylmuramic acid. b. There is periplasmic
space. c. Peptidoglycan is linked with B-1,3-glycosidic bonds. d. Interbridge strengthens the
peptidoglycan layer.
Solution
The cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria has three principal layers: the outer membrane
(OM), the peptidoglycan cell wall, and the cytoplasmic or inner membrane (IM).
The OM is a lipid bilayer, not a phospholipid bilayer. It contains lipopolysaccharides,
lipoproteins, proteins and phospholipids. The outer leaflet of the OM is composed of glycolipids,
predominantly lipopolysaccharide (LPS).
Peptidoglycan cell wall:. The gram-negative bacteria has a thin (2-7 nm) peptidoglycan layer in
their cell wall. Peptidoglycan is a polymer made up of repeating units of the disaccharide N-
acetyl glucosamine (NAG) and -N-actyl muramic acid (NAM), cross-linked by -1,4 glycosidic
bond. NAM is NAG with a lactic acid linked through ether group. A tetrapeptide chain of four
alternating D- and L- aminoacids (L -alanine, D-alanine, D-glutamic acid and L-lysine/ meso
diamino-pimelic acid) is connected to the carboxyl group of the NAM. The two tetrapeptide
chains lying side by side may be linked together directly to each other or indirectly by a peptide
interbridge, of short chain aminoacids through transpeptidation. In addition to the peptidoglycan
layer the gram-negative cell wall also contains an additional outer membrane composed by
phospholipids and lipopolysaccharides.
The OM iscovalently joined to the underlying peptidoglycan by the abundant lipoprotein,
Lpp/murein lipoprotein, or Braun\'s lipoprotein. In addition, proteins such as OmpA bind with
peptidoglycan noncovalently.
The OM and IM define an aqueous cellular compartment/space called the periplasm with densely
packed proteins such as RNAse , alkaline phosphatase, periplasmic binding proteins (for sugar
and amino acid transport and chemotaxis).
The IM is a phospholipid bilayer, comprising mainly phosphatidyl ethanolamine and
phosphatidyl glycerol. The proteins that function in energy production, lipid biosynthesis, protein
secretion, and transport are located in the IM.
So based on the above inference, the true statements are:
b. There is periplasmic space
d. Interbridge strenghtens the peptidoglycan layer..

Deficiency diseases of proteins, kwashiorkor, marasmusShwetaMishra115
Kwashiorkor and marasmus are protein deficiency diseases that primarily affect children. Kwashiorkor occurs when children switch from breastfeeding to a low protein diet, causing symptoms like pigmentation, vomiting, and edema. Marasmus occurs due to a very low protein and calorie diet, leading to weight loss, diarrhea, and respiratory infections. Both diseases are diagnosed through physical exams and tests. Treatment focuses on increasing protein intake through foods like milk, eggs, and soy for kwashiorkor, and increasing overall protein, calories, and nutrients for marasmus.
Proteins can be classified in several ways:
1. Based on composition - such as albumins, globulins, glycoproteins, etc. Simple proteins contain only amino acids, conjugated proteins contain non-protein groups, and derived proteins are modified from natural proteins.
2. Based on structure - globular proteins have a spherical shape like enzymes and hormones, while fibrous proteins have a fiber-like structure like collagen.
3. Based on function - enzymic proteins show catalytic activity, structural proteins form tissues, transport proteins move molecules in the body, storage proteins store nutrients, and toxic proteins provide protection against pathogens.
This document discusses the role and function of proteins as well as their biological value. It outlines that proteins are primarily used in the body to build, maintain and repair tissues. They also produce enzymes, provide structure, act as hormones, store substances, and help with muscle contraction and blood coagulation. The biological value of a protein refers to the percentage of absorbed nitrogen that is retained in the body, and is a measure of protein quality. High biological value proteins include meat, eggs, milk, fish and cheese, while low biological value proteins include cereals, nuts, pulses and bread.
This document provides an introduction to proteins, including:
- Proteins are composed of amino acids joined by peptide bonds to form polypeptide chains. They are essential to the structure and function of tissues.
- Key components of proteins include carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and sometimes sulfur. Properties include solubility in water/acids/alkalies and hydrolysis into amino acids.
- Examples of protein-rich foods are listed like eggs, milk, meat, fish, nuts and beans. The document defines proteins and discusses their essential roles in the body.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
2. POLYPEPTIDE
● Peptides are short polymers of amino acids(monomer) linked by
peptide bonds between two molecules when the carboxyl group of
one molecules reacts with the amino group of other molecule.
● Polypeptide are formed by long peptide chain containing large
numbers of peptide bonds.
● Peptide bond is written as-CONH.
● One end of every polypeptide called the amino terminal or N-
terminal, has free amino group.
● Other end, with its free carboxyl group, is called the carboxyl
terminal or C-terminal.
4. DIPEPTIDE:
A molecule containing two amino acids joint by a peptide bond
called dipeptide.
TRIPEPTIDE:
A molecule containing three amino acids joint by a peptide bond
called tripeptide.
OLIGOPEPTIDE:
A molecule containing few residue(less than 20) of amino acids joint
by a peptide bond called oligopeptide.
6. FUNCTIONS OF PEPTIDE BOND
● Proteins have a wide range of functions in the human body.
● Peptides are important in muscle building. For example, GHRP
peptide is one of the finest Human Growth Hormone releasers.
● Peptides are also capable of raising prolactin hormone especially in
females.(vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)).
● Copper based peptides are responsible for giving us flawless skin
and protecting us from harsh sunny conditions.
● Some peptides like IPAMORELIN are also used to treat hunger
issues.
● Peptides are also used to treat injuries. For example, HEXARELIN
peptide has a pretty attractive healing potential.
