Biochemistry 1 (CHEM32002)

This document includes detailed notes that explain the basic concepts of protein structure in biochemistry. Subtopics covered in lecture are the focus of this chapter, which includes peptide bond formation, interaction of peptide bonds, hydrogen bonding and the different levels of protein folding. The notes explain the reasoning behind the folding, including thermodynamic stability. There are also very specific foldings and theories covered in the notes.

This document includes handwritten notes that help understand properties of amino acids. It also includes an acronym to help memorize all of the amino acids. It also includes the structures of all 20 amino acids. Information about titration, changes in pKa as well as help understanding isoelectric points. There is also information about how peptide bonds form, a basic understanding of carboxylic and the N-terminal. The notes will also include basic laboratory techniques when working with protein...
