DNA Glycosylase Exercise
- I can identify the DNA molecule and the glycosylate. The DNA is located in a groove right next to a sulfur atom.
- Cysteine at position 241 and the sulfur is on the side-chain.
- 105:Threonine, 106:Leucine, 107:Alanine, 108:Glutamine, 109:Leucine, 110:Tyrosine, 111:Histidine, 112:Histidine. 113:Tryptophan, 114: Glycine, 115:Serine, 116:Valine, 117:Apartic Acid
- Helices, sheets and coils are all present in glycosylate with helices being purple/pink, sheets being yellow, and coils being blue.
- amino acids 105-117 make an alpha helix! A picture of this can be found here Media:Picture_for_question_4b_Russo.png
