I. Active site analysis. Below is a diagram of a putative active site for Monoamine oxidase. As we learned, the purpose of tertiary structure is to form a scaffold so you can orient just a few amino acids in the right orientation to promote binding and/or catalysis. The position where this occurs is the active site. The amino acid architecture of an active site is designed to bind substrates. Amino acid side chains are capable of hydrogen bonding, ionic and hydrophobic interactions. Fill in each amino acid that you think is suitable for interacting with the part of the substrate it is closest to. Assume the pH will be at 7.0 a.a.#1 a.a.#2 a.a.#6 DU NH₂ НО. НО a.a.#5 OH a.a.#3 a.a.#4

5. You discover a new cysteine protease similar to papain. Cysteine proteases are proteolytic enzymes that utilize a cysteine residue in the active site for the nucleophilic attack of a peptide bond, while a second residue acts as a base for proton abstraction in the reaction (acid base catalysis). In this novel enzyme the pKa of the cysteine residue is significantly lowered by the active site environment to pKa=4. a. Knowing that the protease shows highest activity between pH 4-6, what could be the identity of the base residue acting as a in the reaction? Explain and write the expected mechanism for the reaction.
