The following is an excerpt from a recent scientific publication:“Partial atomic charges are essential for an accurate description of non‑covalent interactions between drug ligands and the MOR… relative to fentanyl, the presence of the fluorine atom in the compound NFEPP alters the partial atomic charges… fentanyl has an overall larger positive charge of the amine system, which could allow stronger H‑bonding to MOR.” According to the excerpt, how does fentanyl’s protonated amine group aid receptor binding?

Which amino acid side chain is the typical nucleophile in the catalytic triad of chymotrypsin?

Which of the following amino acids has the lowest side chain pKa?

Which compound contains an aldehyde functional group?

Which type of molecules typically act as nucleophiles in biological systems?

Which of the following functional groups is present in acetone?

The following is an excerpt from a recent scientific publication:“The secondary structure contains regions of amino acid chains that are stabilized by hydrogen bonds from the polypeptide backbone. These hydrogen bonds create alpha-helix and beta-pleated sheets… interactions of side chains… determine tertiary structure. The quaternary structure also influences the protein’s 3‑dimensional shape and is formed through side‑chain interactions between two or more polypeptides.” Which statement is correct regarding structural hierarchy?
