A suppressor gene that allows the insertion of an amino acid into the growing polypeptide chain in response to a nonsense codon. In the absence of such a suppressor, premature chain termination occurs. They represent mutations in a gene for a minor transfer RNA(suppressor tRNA), or perhaps in a duplicate of a gene for a major tRNA species, so that a new tRNA is made which can translate a nonsense codon. 2, record 2, English, - nonsense%20suppressor

The last step in translation, i.e. the release of the completed polypeptide from the polyribosome and disengagement of ribosomes from mRNA. It is directed by specific terminator codons (UAA, UAG and UGA) in mRNA which are recognized by special release factors. When translocation places one of the terminator codons in the ribosomal A site, the ribosome does not bind an aminoacyl tRNA-elongation factor-GTP complex. Instead it binds a release factor which activates peptidyl transferase, which then hydrolyzes the bond joining the polypeptide to tRNA in the ribosomal P site. 2, record 3, English, - polypeptide%20chain%20termination

Dernière étape de la biosynthèse des protéines. Elle succède à l'initiation et à l'élongation. Il existe sur le mRNA 3 codons différents chargés de signaler cette terminaison UAA, UAG, et UGA. Trois protéines spécifiques appelées facteurs de libération permettent la libération du polypeptidyl-tRNA du ribosome. Ils se lient au ribosome et provoquent un déplacement du polypeptidyl-tRNA du site A sur le site P. La liaison ester entre la chaîne polypeptidique et le dernier tRNA est ensuite hydrolysée, vraisemblablement par la peptidyl transférase, dont l'action catalytique semble modifiée par la fixation des facteurs de libération. 2, record 3, French, - terminaison

Cystine, the oxidized form of cysteine, plays a special role in protein structure since its disulfide group serves as a covalent cross-link between two polypeptide chains or between two points in a single chain. Disulfide cross-links can be cleaved by the action of reducing agents, e. g., mercaptoethanol, which yields two molecules of cysteine from cystine. Cystine can also be oxidized by such agents as performic acid, to yield two molecules of cysteic acid. 11, record 6, English, - cystine

Il y a 3 aminoacides soufrés, la méthionine, la cystéine et la cystine; mais les deux derniers sont très facilement interconvertibles par oxydation-réduction et on peut considérer qu'ils n'en forment qu'un. La méthionine est - pour le rat comme pour l'homme - un aminoacide indispensable, alors qu'il n'est pas indispensable de fournir la cystéine. Cependant, lorsqu'on donne de la cystéine, les besoins en méthionine diminuent, ce qui suggère qu'une partie de la méthionine est utilisée à former la cystéine; ceci devait être confirmé par les études faites à l'aide d'isotopes radioactifs. 6, record 6, French, - cystine

Today, the relative ease of gene sequencing is leading to an explosion in the derivation of protein primary structure by direct gene translation. This information is being stored in DNA databanks. The current problem with the design of enzymes is that we are still unable to predict reliably the three-dimensional structure adopted by a known primary structure (amino acid sequence) ...

A general principle of stabilization of enzymes is that of providing multipoint binding of the catalyst molecule to the support. This binding serves to make the conformation of the molecule more rigid but without necessarily altering the conformation, and hence more stable against unfolding and, ultimately, inactivation.... If it is accepted that polypeptide chain unfolding is a key process in enzyme inactivation, then it is likely that multipoint attachment of an enzyme molecule to a rigid matrix will increase the resistance to unfolding, and thereby help to preserve the active conformation of the enzyme. 3, record 12, English, - multipoint%20attachment

Hydrogen bonds... play a major part in holding together different regions of polypeptide chain in a folded protein molecule, and they are crucially important for many of the binding interactions observed on protein surfaces. Once they are outside the cytoplasm, secreted or cell-surface proteins often form additional covalent intrachain bonds. For example, the formation of disulfide bonds(also called S-S bridges) between neighboring cysteine-SH groups in a folded polypeptide chain frequently serves to stabilize the three-dimensional structure of extracellular proteins, although they are not required for the specific folding of the molecule. 3, record 17, English, - polypeptide%20chain

Optimal application of protein engineering technology will require understanding how the amino acid sequence of a polypeptide chain specifies its spatial conformation. It is now clear that polypeptide chain folding and subunit assembly proceeds through sequential pathways involving defined intermediates. The critical amino acid instructions directing these pathways appear to be dispersed through the sequence... Very similar patterns of chain folding and domain structure can arise from different amino acid sequences that show little or no homology.

Two amino acids may be joined by condensation between the carboxylic acid group of one molecule and the amino group of the other molecule, with the splitting out of a molecule of water.... The bond formed between the carbonyl group(-CO-) and the imino group(-NH-) is called a peptide bond. A dipeptide is a compound formed by the union of two amino acids through one peptide bond, such as alanyl-serine shown above. A tripeptide is formed from three amino acids joined by two peptide bonds, while a tetrapeptide is formed from four amino acids, etc. When many amino acids are linked into a chain by peptide bonds, the structure is called a polypeptide.

The amino acid side-chains extending outward from a polypeptide chain structure may be either hydrophilic or hydrophobic. The most hydrophilic, or water loving, are those with net ionic charges. Nonpolar side-chains tend to cluster together in the interior of protein molecules to avoid exposure to water. The force causing this comes only from the propensity of the surrounding water to resist being forced into ordered structures by the presence of nonpolar groups. The so-called hydrophobic bond is actually an association created by spurned water. 3, record 20, English, - side%2Dchain

Oligomeric enzymes are usually dissociated into subunits by treatment with denaturing agents such as guanidine hydrochloride. The forces involved in the association of the subunits are thus of the weak, non-covalent type which are involved in stabilizing the folded structure of a polypeptide chain i. e. hydrogen bonds, electrostatic forces, van der Waals forces, and hydrophobic forces. 3, record 21, English, - oligomeric%20enzyme

Many investigators in the late sixties questioned the very existence of uneven numbered oligomers. However, by now we know of well-defined cases for trimeric enzymes.... Pentameric enzymes are rare, whereas no heptamer has so far been found. It is therefore justifiable to say that even-numbered oligomers are much more common than those having an uneven number of protomers, but the latter also exist....

Les deux états sont en équilibre. En l'absence de substrat, la plus grande partie des molécules de l'enzyme prennent l'état T. Puisque le substrat se lie de préférence à l'état R, l'addition du substrat déplace l'équilibre vers cet état R. De cette façon, la liaison des premières molécules du substrat favorise la liaison de celles qui suivent, étant donné que plus de molécules enzymatiques prennent l'état R. 2, record 21, French, - enzyme%20oligom%C3%A8re

Folding a polypeptide chain to a compact globular form will necessitate some way to change the direction of the polypeptide chain, as might, for example, be required to connect adjacent ends of the polypeptide chains in an antiparallel [beta]-sheet. A commonly observed and particularly efficient way to do this is by formation of a tight loop in which a residue's carbonyl group forms a hydrogen bond with the amide NH group of the residue three positions further along the polypeptide chain. The resulting so-called [beta]-bend reverses the direction of the polypeptide chain. 1, record 22, English, - beta%2Dbend

From an evolutionary viewpoint, it is probable that gene fusion did occur in most cases rather than that originally continuous polypeptide chains have separated. In some oligomeric enzymes the allosteric site may have appeared as a result of gene duplication, e. g. in glutamate dehydrogenase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, whereas in others by acquisition of a foreign structural gene, e. g. the NAD-binding domain in glycogen phosphorylase.

When mixed with water the substance referred to as gluten comprises two protein fractions : glutenins which are high molecular weight proteins, 150-1000 kdaltons and gliadins which are smaller molecular weight proteins, 25-100 kdaltons. Both protein fractions are rich in the amino acids glutamine and proline but relatively poor in the more basic amino acids. The better wheat cultivars for bread flour are those which have high amounts of the high molecular weight glutenins. Both intra and inter polypeptide chain disulphide bridges in glutenin appear to be important for the viscoelastic properties of bread dough. The loaf volume is inversely related to the proportion of acid soluble glutenin and directly related to the insoluble glutenin content of the flour. 2, record 32, English, - soluble%20glutenin

Many proteins are oligomeric and contain more than one polypeptide chain. By a variation of... electrophoresis called SDS-gel electrophoresis, an oligomeric protein can be dissociated into its subunits and the molecular weight of the subunits determined. The method also can be used to determine the molecular weight of single-chain proteins... The proteins themselves are not in a simple aqueous solution but in one that includes a powerful, negatively charged detergent, sodium dodecyl sulfate, or SDS. Because this detergent binds to hydrophobic regions of the protein molecules, causing them to unfold into extended polypeptide chains, the individual protein molecules are freed from their associations with other proteins or lipid molecules and rendered freely soluble in the detergent solution.... The resulting unfolded polypeptide chains consequently have relatively large numbers of SDS molecules bound to them.... As a result, the SDS-denatured protein molecules acquire net negative charges that are approximately proportional to their molecular weights and will migrate in an imposed electric field at rates also approximately proportional to their molecular weights.(From LEBIP, 1975, p. 180; ACELL, 1983, p. 174; ZUBIO, 1983, pp. 59, 60) 2, record 43, English, - SDS%2Dgel%20electrophoresis

L'électrophorèse en présence de SDS sert très souvent à déterminer le poids moléculaire des protéines. (...) Quand on ajoute un détergent, le dodécyl sulfate de sodium (SDS), au milieu électrophorétique, les protéines sont séparées surtout selon leur poids moléculaire. Ceci est dû au fait que le SDS se lie aux protéines et leur confère un grand nombre de charges négatives venant du sulfate. De cette façon, la plupart des charges viendront du SDS, ce qui minimise les effets des différences de charge entre les protéines individuelles (ces différences de charge affecteraient la mobilité électrophorétique) et toutes les protéines se déplacent selon leur dimension. Les plus grosses protéines se déplacent moins rapidement que les plus petites parce qu'elles rencontrent plus de résistance quand elles traversent les pores moléculaires dans le gel de polyacrylamide utilisé pour l'électrophorèse.

Après traitement de la ribonucléase par le mercapto-2 éthanol et l'urée (rupture des ponts disulfure et des liaisons faibles), la protéine perd sa conformation native et son activité enzymatique. Après élimination des réactifs par dialyse, on constate par maintien à l'air (réoxydation des thiols en ponts disulfure) la réapparition de l'activité enzymatique. La protéine a donc retrouvé d'elle-même sa conformation native active. Cette expérience est confirmée par la synthèse chimique de la ribonucléase : cette synthèse ne porte que sur la structure primaire, et l'on obtient une protéine d'activité enzymatique identique à celle de l'enzyme native du pancréas.
