Question
Draw the most common ionization form of Aspartic Acid at pH 2.90. a. Based on your drawing, what kind of noncovalent side chain interactions could aspartic acid participate in (with other amino acids) at pH 2.90? Hydrogen bonds b. Use the Henderson Hasselbach equation to calculate the ratio of base/acid for aspartic acid's side chain at pH 2.90. Does this ratio make sense? Refer back to your drawing and explain your answer.
