The table shows the structures of four amino acids found in proteins in the human body. Complete the table by indicating the type of tertiary interaction each side-chain is most likely to have when its amino acid is present in a protein chain. amino acid structure type of interaction alanine H2NCH(CH3)CO2H cysteine H2NCH(CH2SH)CO2H lysine H2NCH((CH2)4NH2)CO2H serine H2NCH(CH2OH)CO2H Metal ions play an important role in the biochemistry of the human body. For each of the following metal ions, outline one of the places in the body it can be found and its main role there. iron potassium zinc For Examiner’s Use Many chemical reactions at a cellular level require energy in order to take place. This energy is largely provided by the breakdown of one particular compound. Write an equation showing the breakdown of this compound. What type of chemical reaction is this? Cystic fi brosis is a genetic disease caused by a mutation in the DNA sequence resulting in the production of a faulty version of an important protein which acts as an ion pump in the cell membrane. This pump controls the fl ow of ions into and out of cells. People with the faulty protein show two major symptoms. ● water is retained in cells in the lungs resulting in the formation of a thick, sticky mucous outside the cells; ● their sweat is very salty. Based on the information given for people with cystic fi brosis, suggest which ions are involved in the ion fl ow, suggest and explain what type of bonding might result in thick or sticky mucous.

For Examiner’s Use NMR and X-ray crystallography are two important analytical techniques which can be used to study the structure and function of molecules. Nuclear magnetic resonance, NMR, arises because protons possess spin which generates a small magnetic moment. When an external magnetic fi eld is applied the protons can align with or against the external fi eld. If they are given a small amount of energy in the radio frequency range each can be ‘promoted’ so that their magnetic moment opposes the external fi eld. Two factors can infl uence the energy required for this promotion. What are they? A compound, J, has the formula C4H10O. The NMR spectrum of J is shown. δ / ppm Indicate the groups responsible for each peak and hence deduce the structure of J. peak at 1.26 δ peak at 2.0 δ structure of J For Examiner’s Use There are three other isomers of J containing the same functional group as J. Draw the structures of two of these three isomers and indicate how many different chemical shifts each would show in its NMR spectrum. isomer 1 isomer 2 number of groups of peaks number of groups of peaks X-ray crystallography can be useful in gathering information about the structure of large organic molecules, such as nucleic acids. Which element will show up most strongly in the X-ray crystallography of a nucleic acid? Explain your answer. X-ray crystallography will not detect hydrogen atoms. Explain why this is so.

For Examiner’s Use The developments in nanotechnology and drug delivery over the past 20 years have been wide-ranging. One of the most widespread developments for delivering a range of pharmaceutical products has been the use of liposomes. These are artifi cially created spheres made from phospholipids which have an ionic phosphate ‘head’ and two hydrocarbon ‘tails’. A C B phospholipid liposome Liposomes have also been used to carry pharmaceuticals such as vitamins and moisturisers used in cosmetic anti-ageing creams. Otherwise these pharmaceuticals may be oxidised or dehydrated if exposed to air. State in which area of the liposome, A, B or C, each of the following types of molecule would be carried. a hydrophilic moisturiser a fat-soluble vitamin For one of the areas, A, B or C, suggest why this would not be an appropriate place to carry either molecule. When liposomes are used to carry drugs, their main purpose is to prevent the drug molecules from being broken down on passage through the digestive system. Name a functional group present in drug molecules that might be broken down by acid in the stomach. For Examiner’s Use Name the type of reaction that would cause such a breakdown. The drug Sirolimus is used to suppress possible rejection by the body after kidney transplants. N O O O O O O O O H3C H3C H3C H3C H3C O H3C CH3 CH3 CH3 CH3 O H H H H HO OH OH Sirolimus Circle two bonds, each in a different functional group that could be broken down in the digestive system. Sirolimus is not very soluble in water, greatly reducing its effectiveness when given by mouth or by injection. To increase its effectiveness when taken by mouth nano-sized crystals of the drug combined with poly(ethylene glycol) or PEG (shown below) are produced. HO — (CH2 — CH2 — O)n — H Suggest what is meant by the term nano-sized. Suggest where on the molecule of PEG the drug would be attached. Why would bonding the drug to a PEG molecule improve its solubility in water?
