2. Which component of the general structure of AA is acidic?
- COO-
- R-group
- NH3+
- H
3. The AA's hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine...
- are translated from specific DNA sequences
- are hydroxylated forms of proline and lysine, which require vit C as an enzyme cofactor for their synthesis
- are hydroxylated forms of proline and lysine, which require vit C as an enzyme cofactor for the synthesis and are found at high levels in collagen
- are hydroxylated forms of proline and lysine, thus not encoded by the genetic code
4. The AA with 'non-polar' aliphatic R groups are characterised by:
- high levels of acidic or basic groups
- high levels of carbon and hydrogen in the side chain
- high levels of hydrogen bonding between carbon and hydrogen atoms in the side chain
- high levels of carbon and oxygen atoms in the side chain
5. Desmosine is an AA...
- formed of four lysine residues
- formed of four hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine residues
