24
Q

Hormonal

25
Protective
Fibrin, Immunoglobulins, Interferons
26
Receptors
Nicotinic and adreganic recpetors
27
Regulatory
Calmoudin, transcription factors
28
Structural
Elastin, Keratin, Collagen
29
Transport
Hemoglobin, Lipoproteins, Transferrin
30
Primary structure
Joined by peptide bond
31
Trans conformer of amino acids is
The most common
32
Secondary structure
Ordered structure adopted by the chain through h bonds
33
Types of secondary structures
Alpha helix, beta sheet, and beta turn
34
Beta turn
4 consecutive amino acids, mostly proline and glycine, some are asparagine and aspartate
35
Supersecondary structure
Higher than secondary but has no functions
36
Forces stabilizing folding
Covalent, ionic, h bond, van der waals
37
Chaperones
Involves in degradation and folding of proteins
38
Prions
Misfolded proteins that causes disease
39
Receptors and enzymes as drug targets
Most studied and largest groups of protein targets
40
Carriers and transporters as drug targets
Have recognition sites for specific ligands
41
Sttuctural proteins as drug targets
Most common in cancer, not usual target due to its low selectivity
42
Peptide hormone as drugs
Insulin, Insulin lispro, and insulin aspart
43
Insulin
Proline 28, glycine 29
44
Insulin lispro
Proline 29, glycine 28
45
Cutdown polypeptides as drugs
Part of the functional protein is given Poor gut absorption Rapid elimination Trigger immuno response
46
