Q 1 :    

"Ramachandran plot" is used to confirm the structure of     [2019]

  • RNA

     

  • proteins

     

  • triacylglycerides

     

  • DNA

     

(2)

 



Q 2 :    

Which of the following is the least likely to be involved in stabilising the three-dimensional folding of most proteins?   [2016]

  • Hydrogen bonds

     

  • Electrostatic interaction

     

  • Hydrophobic interaction

     

  • Ester bonds

     

(4)

Tertiary structure or three dimensional structure of protein is stabilised by several types of bonds-hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, van der Waal's interactions, covalent bonds and hydrophobic bonds.

 



Q 3 :    

Given below are two statements:

Statement I: A protein is imagined as a line, the left end represented by first amino acid (C-terminal) and the right end represented by last amino acid (N-terminal)

Statement II: Adult human haemoglobin consists of 4 subunits (two subunits of α type and two subunits of β type.)

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:                                        [2023]

  • Statement I is true but Statement II is false.

     

  • Statement I is false but Statement II is true.

     

  • Both Statement I and Statement II are true.

     

  • Both Statement I and Statement II are false.

     

(2)

A protein is imagined as a line, the left end represents first amino acid (N-terminal amino acid) and right end represents the last amino acid (C-terminal amino acid).
