Imagine a transmembrane protein made of 7 alpha helices. This protein functions as a pore that allows Cl- ions to pass through the membrane. Each alpha helix has hydrophobic amino acids on one surface and hydrophilic amino acids on the opposite surface. Describe how these helices are likely arranged in the membrane.

The pH of the secretions in the human stomach is unique in its extreme acidity (pH~2, upon food consumption typically). Pepsin, an amidase, is the main enzyme produced in the stomach and it begins the general digestion of proteins by hydrolyzing amide (peptide) linkage between amino acids. A) What would happen to most other enzymes and proteins at a pH so low? B) What types of amino acid interactions are most affected by such a low pH? C) Which level...
