Hierarchy of Protein Structure• Primary structure is determined by sequence• Secondary structure is α-helix, β-sheets, and turns or loops• Tertiary structure is packing of secondary structural elements• Quaternary is assembly of monomers into dimers, tetramers, etc.

Protein Structure "-HELIX • Favorable H-Bonding exists between the O of
one amino acid residue and the N-H of a different amino acid residue four amino acids away. – A H bond is created when the electronegative
lone pair electrons on the carbonyl oxygen cause the amide H to shift slightly away from N and towards O and form a weak bond.
– O- - - H-N bond distance is ~2.9 D – bond energy is ~ 10 kJ/mole or less
(compared with 400kJ for a C-H bond).• Must remember that these atoms would be
interacting with solvent if they weren’t involved in this internal H bonding.

Protein Structure α-HELIX * In this highly idealized image of myoglobin, all of the helices are represented as colored ribbons, which trace their backbone.
* For simplicity, all side groups are completely ignored.
* How many helices do you see? See myoglobin file with Rasmol

Protein Structure α-HELIX

Protein Structure α-HELIX
• -R groups big and bulky side groups accommodated – charged amino acids project
away from the cylinder – Ala, Glu, Leu and Met are good
alpha helix formers– Pro, Gly, Tyr and Ser are poor
helix formers
• Can see already from above observations that sequence determines structure.
R groups on the outside of helix:

Protein Structure β strands and sheets
• Anti parallel Beta Sheet: – Strands run in opposite N→C
directions. – H bonds are made between different
strands of the sheet, inter-strand H bonded network.
– R groups: • alternate up and down the strand
and across each strand,• are both up or both down across
strands.

Protein Structure Beta Sheet
• Beta sheet predicted (once again) by Pauling and found later experimentally in proteins. – Typical protein with extended beta sheet structure is fibroin,
the major protein in silk which is a fabric produced by the silkworms of China and used for fabric since 2,000BC.
Here, silk worms munch on mulberry leaves.. YUM

Protein Structure* Silk
Note the R groups project above and below the sheets, and that the sheets aren’t perfectly flat, but are puckered in such a way that the knob of one R group fits into the upward pucker of sheet above.
Intersheet van der Waals interactions govern polymer properties
Identity of R groups determine tensile strengths, flexibilities, and price of different silks.

Protein Structure Beta Sheet
• Parallel β sheet– Adjacent strands run in the
same direction (-N to -C terminal)
– H bonding pattern is evenly spaced
Parallel Beta Sheet

Protein Structure Molecular Architecture
• Beta twists: a common structural motif in which a mostly parallel beta sheet naturally twists.
Protein Thioredoxin
The twisted sheet is not purely parallel or antiparallel , but has a mixed orientation.

Protein StructureMolecular Architecture
• Beta Barrels GFP, green fluorescent proteinThis beta stranded barrel and tight loops create a shielded lantern to hold the fluorescing group (cyclized triad of amino acids shown below). If group were exposed to solvent, the light would be extinguished.

Protein Structure Loops
• Loops: Making the Connections – Loop regions connect regions of secondary structure, either
helices or strands, or helices to strands. Previously thought to be unstructured random arrangements of amino acids, it is now realized that some regular features exist which can be described and in some cases rationalized.
– They are usually at the surface of the molecule and therefore have polar charged or hydrophilic polar side groups. Gly is another favorite. Surprisingly, one can predict loop regions with more certainty than any other "structure". The carbonyl oxygen and amide proton hydrogen bond with the solvent.

Protein Structure Loops
• Making Connections between α Helices – Alpha helices are often connected
to each other by loop regions as seen in Mb.
– The carbonyl and amide groups in the loops make hydrogen bonds with the solvent rather than internally.
– Loop regions are often the sites of mutations, insertions, and deletions, since it seems you can perturb the loop and not affect the core structure. Myoglobin again, see loops

Putting it together: What kinds of amino acid side groups would you expect to find on the surface of a protein like fibrinogen?
