Security in Computing, Fifth Edition, offers complete, timely coverage of all aspects of computer security, including users, software, devices, operating systems, networks, and data. Reflecting rapidly evolving attacks, countermeasures, and computing environments, this new edition introduces best practices for authenticating users, preventing malicious code execution, using encryption, protecting privacy, implementing firewalls, detecting intrusions, and more.

More than two hundred end-of-chapter exercises help the student to solidify lessons learned in each chapter. Combining breadth, depth, and exceptional clarity, this comprehensive guide builds carefully from simple to complex topics, so you always understand all you need to know before you move forward.

Then you will switch to defense, selecting the best available solutions and countermeasures. In extreme cases the H can be lost as a free proton. O forms two covalent bonds and has two lone pairs of electrons. It is an electronegative element and when bound to hydrogen it will cause H to be partially positively charged. O is highly reactive due to its high electronegativity.

N forms up to three covalent bonds and has a single lone pair of electrons. It is an electronegative element and will create a partial positive charge on a hydrogen bonded to it. C forms four covalent bonds. With four single bonds, tetrahedral geometry is predominant.

With one double bond, carbon shows trigonal planar geometry, with an additional pair of electrons participating in a pi bond. Nucleic acids are formed from nucleotides that are composed of phosphate, sugar and nitrogenous base components. Nucleosides lack phosphate. Polysaccharides are made of carbohydrates or sugar molecules. Lipids are a class of mostly nonpolar, mostly hydrocarbon molecules. Macromolecular structures Macromolecular structures are composed of complexes of macromolecules i.

The ribosome, made up of protein and ribonucleic acid, is a prime example. Organelles Organelles are subcellular compartments defined by lipid bilayer membranes. Cell types There are two fundamental cell types: eukaryotic, having organelles and a defined nuclear region, and prokaryotic, lacking organelles and a membrane-enclosed region of genetic material. The archaea and bacteria comprise the prokaryotes.

The number of amino acid residues, average molecular mass and monoisotopic mass are all given on the line preceding the list of tryptic fragments. Human insulin receptor substrate-1 has amino acid residues, has a theoretical isoelectric point pI of 8. The sequence of the tryptic peptide with mass ExPASy is a very useful database devoted to proteins.

To get an idea of the kinds of information stored there activate the link to P located three lines above the table listing the tryptic fragments.

Proteases such as trypsin and chymotrypsin cleave proteins at different sites, but both use the same reaction mechanism. Answer: Peptide bonds are generally quite resistant to hydrolysis. Catalysis, however, might require attack on the carbonyl carbon by a negatively-charged group. For water to be the attacking group, it must be activated to a hydroxide. This would require an environment on the protein in which a water molecule binds and subsequently loses a proton to become activated.

For catalysis to be initiated by an amino acid side chain on the protein likely candidates would include serine, threonine and tyrosine. Aspartic acid, glutamic acid and cysteine can be more readily deprotonated but their charge density is low.

Table 5. Some of these mutations affect subunit interactions between the subunits. Where might you expect the amino acid substitutions to be in these mutants? Answer: Subunit interactions leading to a stable quaternary structure occur between groups on interacting surfaces of the subunits. Often these groups are hydrophobic. So, amino acid mutations on the surfaces of the subunits leading to removal of hydrophobic amino acids might be good candidates for quaternary structure mutants.

Hemoglobin S is a mutation from glutamic acid to valine, which represents a change from a negatively- charged amino acid to a hydrophobic amino acid. The presence of glutamic acid on the surface of hemoglobin is expected to block polymerization due to charge repulsion. In hemoglobin S, however, the valine allows for hydrophobic inaction leading to polymerization. Questions for Self Study 1. Fill in the blanks.

Proteins are linear chains of held together by covalent bonds. Although these bonds are typically drawn as C-N single bonds, they in fact have partial double-bond characteristics because of delocalization of. The result of this delocalization is to constrain four atoms in a single plane termed the plane.

The four atoms are , , , and. Thus, linear chains of amino acids can be considered as a string of carbons joined together by amide or peptide planes. Nucleotides and Nucleic Acids To judge whether it is possible to uniquely target a particular gene with a RNA of this size, consider the following calculation: What is the expected frequency of occurrence of a specific nt sequence?

Using the logic in problem 15, one can calculate the minimum length of a unique DNA sequence expected to occur by chance just once in the human genome.

That is, what is the length of a double-stranded DNA whose expected frequency of occurrence is once in the haploid human genome? Design a sequencing strategy for nucleic acids Snake venom phosphodiesterase is an a-specific exonuclease Figure Design a protocol based on snake venom phosphodiesterase that would allow you to determine the base sequence of an oligonucleotide.

Hint: Adapt the strategy for protein sequencing by Edman degradation, as described on pages and Answer: One approach might be to simply partially digest the oligonucleotide for varying lengths of time and then analyze the products by mass spectrometry, specifically MALDI-TOF Matrix assisted laser desorption ionization —time of flight.

Complete digestion will only produce individual nucleotides but partial digestion will produce a collection of nucleotides with ragged ends and whose molecular weights differ by loss of a particular nucleotide.

In Edman degradation controlled cleavage of an immobilized peptide releases one amino acid at a time and something similar could be tried with a nucleic acid and an exonuclease, but it could be tricky.

The molecular weights given above need to be corrected for loss of water upon phosphodiester bond formation since what gets incorporated into a DNA is a nucleoside monophosphate residue. So, one needs to correct the molecular weights given above by subtracting 18 from each. Variations in [product], [S], and [cofactors] have immediate consequences for enzyme activity. The same is true for allosteric regulation. Further, these controls last as long as the signals are present.

Genetic controls, such as induction and repression leading to an increase or decrease in enzyme synthesis, are fast, although not immediate, and can be long lasting.

Clearly, degradation is long-lasting. However, a delicate balance between synthesis and degradation can lead to a very responsive system of control. Covalent modification may lead to rapid and long lasting changes in enzyme activity. Balancing the activity of modifying enzymes against enzymes that can reverse these modifications creates a sensitive system of enzyme control.

Finally, zymogens and isozymes are examples of enzyme control mechanisms that can be extremely long lasting. This histidine, known as the distal histidine because it is on the opposite side of the oxygen-binding site where the so-called proximal histidine is located see following question , is one of the iron coordinates in both myoglobin and hemoglobin. In hemoglobin, movement of the distal histidine in a single subunit of Hb can influence the accessibility of the oxygen-binding site in the other subunits.

The proximal histidine is located close enough to the heme iron so as to prevent carbon monoxide from binding to hemoglobin with optimum geometry. By forming a protein:heme complex, the apparent solubility of heme is greatly increased.

Thus, higher concentrations can be maintained without the problem of limited solubility, especially in the presence of oxygen. Because the heme is partially buried in a hydrophobic pocket, it is protected from oxidation. Oxidation produces met-Hb which does not transport oxygen.
