CAS BI 203 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Alpha Helix, Alpha And Beta Carbon, Amide
Document Summary
This will be the first of two lectures on protein structure. 793 been introduced to proteins as one of the four fundamental biopolymers. 794 about them in a little bit more detail. 795 [00:00:13. 65] specifically, we"ll talk about how proteins are made up of amino acids. We"ll talk about the peptide bond which joins amino acids into. We"ll talk about forces which govern the shape of folded proteins. 798 specifically about some misconceptions about hydrogen bonding that helps determine protein. 800 [00:00:39. 82] before we get into that, i"d like to point these two pictures out to you. 801 discussed in a previous lecture about how cells are made up of 70% of water, 30% biomolecules. 802 this bottom picture, in particular, is drawn to scale with the proper concentrations. 803 [00:00:58. 40] and when you think of 70% water, you might not think about as crowded an.
