•
•
Linear sequence of amino acids
Joined by Peptide Bonds
Translated from mRNA using Genetic Code
Synthesis begins at amino end and
terminates at carboxyl end
• Ultimately determines all properties of a
protein

Prion Replication Model
Amyloids and Disease
Amyloids - a collection of improperly folded protein aggregates found in the human body.
When misfolded, they are insoluble and contribute to some twenty human diseases including
important neurological ones involving prions.
Amyloid diseases include (affected protein in parentheses) -
• Alzheimer’s disease (Amyloid β)
• Parkinson’s disease (α-synuclein)
• Huntington’s disease (huntingtin),
• Rheumatoid arthritis (serum amyloid A),
• Fatal familial insomnia (PrPSc)
Protein Processing
Chaperonins - Proper folding - environment for hydrophobic sequences
GroEL / GroEL-GroES
Proteasomes - Degradation to oligopeptides of about 8 amino acids each
Role of Ubiquitin
Flag for protein destruction by proteasome
Intrinsically Disordered Proteins
Not all proteins folded into stable structures
Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs) have regions favoring disorder
IDP regions tend to lack hydrophobic residues
Rich in polar amino acids and proline
IDPs may favor adaptation to binding another protein
IDPs may favor being modified
IDPs may be more involved in signaling and regulation
Non-IDPs more involved in catalysis and transport
Metamorphic Proteins
May adopt more than one stable structure
Lymphotactin - monomeric receptor. Binds heparin as dimer
Protein Structure
• Primary – Amino Acid Sequence
• Secondary / Supersecondary – Repeating Structures – short range forces
• Tertiary – Folded structures – longer range interactions
