You have purified Protein 'X' and you want to know its concentration. As we learned, you can calculate concentrations by simply measuring UV280 absorbance of protein solutions. Using a UV spectrophotometer, you measured an absorbance of 0.6. Given that Protein X has an absorptivity (or extinction coefficient) of 0.2 mL•mg-cm at 280 nm, what is the concentration of purified protein solution (assume the light path is 1 cm)? -1 O A. 3 g/mL B. 3 mg/mL OC.0.2mg/mL OD.0.2 g/mL OE. 0.6 g/mL
1.0.1 mL of a protein solution of concentration of 11 mg/mL was diluted to a total volume of 4.0 mL with water (i.e. 0.1 mL of the solution was added to 3.9 mL of water). 2 mL of this solution was then mixed with 18 mL of water. What is the concentration of the diluted protein solution? Space to show your workings:
A tetrameric protein dissociates into dimers when the detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is added to a solution of the protein. But the dimers are termed SDS-resistant because they do not further dissociate into monomers in the presence of the detergent. What intermolecular forces might be acting at the dimer-dimer interface? Are the intermolecular forces acting at the monomer-monomer interface different? Explain.
The amino acid glycine is often used as an ingredient in buffers for biochemistry experiments. The amino group of glycine has a pKa of 9.6. Glycine exists in either a protonated form (-NH3+) or a free base (-NH₂). a) In what pH range can glycine be used as an effective buffer? b) In a 0.1M solution of glycine at pH 9.0, what fraction has its amino group in the protonated form? c) When 99% of the glycine is in the protonated from, what is the numerical relation between the pH of the solution and the pKa of the amino group?
A peptide was analyzed with the following results. What is the primary structure of the peptide? State what each experimental result reveals about the structure and indicate your logic. a) Amino acid analysis: R, C (2 equivalents), G, I, H, M, Y, Vb) After one round of Edman degradation, a mixture of glycine and isoleucine were detected. c) Treatment with beta-mercaptoethanol yielded two peptides, a 4-mer and a 5-mer.
