Of the different classes of enzymes (and their reactions), “transferases” are involved in the C-C bond formation reactions.

Enzymes increase the forward and reverse rates of biochemical reactions by different magnitudes.

Which of following amino acid is selectively involved in forming the β-turns:

Secondary structures of proteins are predominantly stabilized by hydrophobic interactions.

The side chains of amino acids involved in α-helices are roughly:

Random coils predominantly contain one of the following structures:

The “Bohr effect” implies that the binding affinity of oxygen to hemoglobin will decrease upon:

The decrease in pH at the tissue level helps to:

Ramchandran plots are used to assess the possible conformations of secondary structural elements in peptides.

The sigmoidal binding profile of a ligand to an oligomeric protein is representative of:
