Second Attempt: I put Glycoproteins, Peptidoglycans , Lipoproteins, Porins and T

Question

Second Attempt: I put Glycoproteins, Peptidoglycans , Lipoproteins, Porins and Transporters (and that was wrong as well

Question 5)

I Put

Phenylalanine = a sharp fixed turn in the protein backbone

Glycine= a flexible hinge

Proline= the active site

Cystein=internal within the enzyme

Serine=external on the enzyme

Histidine= inactive site

And it was wrong. Thank you!

My protease appears to affect bacteria, but not my own cells. What type of peptides/proteins might my protease hydrolyzelcut? (Think about amino acid isomers.) Pick ALL that apply. A. peptidoglycans glycoproteins lipoproteins D. porins E. transporters F. metalloproteins

Explanation / Answer

answer 1) :

i think answer would be peptidoglycan and porins.

peptidoglycan are made up of the alternate residue of  N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM) linked by  -(1,4) linkage. it is also called as murein that is only found in bacteria not in human.

porins are present in plasma membrane of bacteria as well as outer membrane of mitochondria. therefore targeting these two can damage only bacteria not human.

answer 5) i m not prety sure about it.
