PROTEIN STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION Learning Objectives The list of learning objectives below are what you s hould be able to do or know to prepare for problem solving. Level 1 and 2 (Knowledge and Comprehension) 1.1 Draw the chemical structure of single amino acid and indicate the following features that are common to all amino acids: functional groups, side chains, and ionic forms. 1.2 Draw a dipeptide, tripeptide and identify the bonds (especially peptide bonds) and indicate the N- and C-terminal residues in peptides. 1.3 Classify each of the amino acid side chains on the carbon as basic, acidic, or as polar and charged, polar and uncharged, hydrophobic, or special. 1.4 Define and distinguish between the primary, secondary, tertiary protein structure. What forces hold together the secondary and tertiary structures? 1.5 Contrast the hydrogen bonding patterns that give rise to alpha helices with those that produce beta sheets. 1.5 Distinguish be
