A. How far have you gotten in the notes entitled
Protein?
You might provide the last section you read or the last study question you addressed (e.g. SQ12).
Consider how comfortable you are with the following topics (as defined by the notes Protein):
B. What amino acids are and how they differ from one another
C. How amino acids are joined to form proteins
D. How the sequence of amino acids of a protein contribute to its ultimate three-dimensional shape
E. The distinction between primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures of proteins
F. How the entire three-dimensional structure participates in forming the critical active site of chymotrypsin
G. Two ways in which hydrophobic amino acids can direct a protein to sit in a membrane
H. How a greater ability to predict protein function from its primary structure would change the world we live in
I. What all of this has to do with bioinformatics
J. Study questions 1 through 7.
With this in mind, how could class time best be spent to meet your needs?
As always, refer to specific matters and relate your current understanding and efforts you've made to address your discomfort.
Do you have any other questions concerning the material in the notes?
