### Protein Fragmentation by Trypsin**Question:**Cut the following protein with the Serine Proteolytic enzyme *Trypsin*. How many peptide fragments are present after the protein is treated with *Trypsin*?**Given Sequence:**Ala-Leu-Arg-Gly-Met-Val-Arg-Lys-Ala**Options:**- O 2- O 9- O 8- O 4**Explanation:**Trypsin is a serine protease that specifically cleaves peptide chains primarily at the carboxyl side of the amino acids lysine (Lys) and arginine (Arg), except when either is followed by proline.**Analysis of the Given Sequence:**- Sequence: Ala-Leu-Arg-Gly-Met-Val-Arg-Lys-AlaCleavage points:1. After the first "Arg" (Arginine)2. After the second "Arg" (Arginine)3. After the "Lys" (Lysine)This results in the following fragments:1. Ala-Leu-Arg2. Gly-Met-Val-Arg3. Lys4. Ala**Answer: 4 Peptide Fragments**When the given protein sequence is treated with the enzyme Trypsin, a total of four peptide fragments (Ala-Leu-Arg, Gly-Met-Val-Arg, Lys, and Ala) are formed. Therefore, the correct option is:- O 4This example illustrates how cleavage sites in a protein sequence can be identified using specific enzymes, aiding in understanding the structure and function of proteins in biological processes.
