Small molecules are used as inhibitors of protein action - as drugs. They most often do this by blocking the active site within the protein. Potential drugs can be screened computationally to determine if they are strongly bound to the protein. Figure 1 shows a possible conformation of a candidate drug molecule, 4-bromo-2- carboxymethylamide-pyrrole (abbreviation: BCMAP) at the active site of a protein (abbreviation: PR). Figure 2 shows the full protein structure whilst figure 3 shows a known inhibitor of the protein at the site, overlayed with another calculated conformer of BCMAP. (c) Outline how you would investigate whether BCMAP would be an effective inhibitor for the protein in competition with the molecules that the protein normally targets, and any solvent. Figure 1. 4-bromo-2-carboxymethylamide-pyrrole (BCMAP) (C, N, O, and Br atoms in yellow, blue, red, and brown, respectively) in the active site of the protein structure.
1. The human hemoglobin molecule, like all mammalian he- moglobins, is comprised of two a-chains and two ß-chains con- ₂ taining 141 and 146 amino acid residues, respectively. Be- cause the molecule possesses two-fold symmetry, there are a1-a2, B1-B2, and a1-B2 interfaces formed by amino acid sidechains through which structural changes are transmitted underlying ligand binding. The most important of these is the a1-B2 interface that is illustrated in the diagram on the right. All of the sidechain interactions across the a1-B2 interface are hydrophobic except for that between Asp(a94) and Asn- (B102). This is the only polar interaction across the α1-³2 in- terface and it helps to stabilize the oxy- or R-conformation. Its approximate location in the Hb molecule is represented by the red double arrow in the diagram on the right.

Trypsin contains a/an [aspartate/serine/histidine] in its specificity pocket to attract lysine and arginine side chains. It contains a potent nucleophilic [histidine/serine/aspartate] in its active site that is capable of attacking the electrophilic [carbon/nitrogen/oxygen] of the closest peptide bond. The [acyl-enzyme/specificity pocket/oxyanion] transition state is stabilized by the backbone amide hydrogens of glycine and serine. In this way, the enzyme is able to catalyze the [hydrolysis/ligation/metalysis/hydrogenation] of the peptide bond.
a protease that cleave peptide bonds adjacent to aspartate and glutamate would likely have an s1 pocket that contain positively charged amino acids true or false

The enzyme cytidine deaminase catalyzes the conversion of cytidine to uridine. Cytidine deaminase catalyzes the reaction through an addition of water across the cytidine 3,4-bond, forming a tetrahedral intermediate followed by the elimination of NH3 to form the product uridine. This is like the addition-elimination mechanism that we studied for adenosine deaminase. Cytidine deaminase НО.
