Highly charged single a-helix (SAH) domains are found in a significant fraction (0.2-0.5%) of the human protein database. Consider a 68-residue MT domain of scrofa (pig) myosin-VI that adopts a single alpha helical structure. Estimate the length of an alpha helix that is 60 residues long, given that there are approximately 5.4 angstroms rise per turn of the alpha helix.

hello, can you please help me to solve this question about organic chemistry? Thank you :)
A MALDI-TOF spectrum was obtained for a fragment of the neuropeptide ACTH: Arg-Pro-Val-Lys-Val-Tyr-Pro-Asn-Gly-Ala-Glu-Asp-Glu-Ser-Ala-Glu-Ala-Phe-Pro-Leu-Glu-Phe It's monoisotopic mass [M] = 2462.198 These cations have the following monoisotopic masses: H* = 1.00 Nat = 22.99 K* = 39.10 Calculate the [M+H]* peak for ACTH, round your value to the nearest whole number.
The isoelectric point (pl) can best be calculated by: Averaging the sums of all pkas. Averaging the sum of the two pKas closest to physiological pH. Averaging the two pKas "sandwiching" the zwitterionic form. Averaging the two pKas of the alpha-amino and alpha-carboxy groups.
Calculate the percentage ionization (i.e. [base]/[acid]x100) in these amino acid side chains at the pH values specified (show your work for one of these amino acid chains): - Aspartate (pKa=4.1) at pH 5.4 - Arginine (pKa=12.5) at pH 11.8 - Histidine (pKa=6.0) at pH 8.0 - Tyrosine (pKa=10.9) at pH 8.0
Enz-SH + Ag* - Enz-S-Ag + H* The affinity of Ag* for sulfhydryl groups is so great that Ag* can be used to titrate -SH groups quantitatively. To 10.0 mL of a solution containing 3.5 mg/mL of a pure enzyme, an investigator added just enough AGNO, to completely inactivate the enzyme. A total of 0.536 umol AGNO, was required. Calculate the minimum molecular weight (M,) of the enzyme. minimum M, = The determined M, is not exact, but it is a minimum value for the M, of the enzyme. Why does the M, value obtained this way give only the minimum molecular weight? There is only one polypeptide chain. There are no disulfide bonds in the protein. There is only one titratable -SH group per protein molecule. The Ag* would also react with the terminal carboxyl group.
Suh and Savizky studied the thermodynamics of human a - lactalbumin (HLA) unfolding in the absence (apo) or presence of various metal ions (Suh, J. J. and Savizky, R. M., Int. J. Biophys., 2011, 1(1), 1-6). You may assume that the protein starts out in the folded state and becomes denatured when it unfolds. According to the data below, which metal ion results in the greatest enthalpic stabilization of the folded state?

1 Submit Q10. !! Unanswered Q10. An average amino acid is about 110 Da (Daltons). If there are 1273 amino acids in the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, what do you expect the mass of spike to be? How does that compare to the expected mass of about 200 KDa? more than expected by about 90 Da Less than expected by about 90 Da B. more than expected by by about 60 KDa less than expected by about 60 KDa Submit odf 0/11 answered
Please explain in depth. I understand it is a zwitterion but I need an in depth explanation. Thank you
Hoping for solutions since I’m having a hard time with this. Pls skip if unsure or not willing to answer the subitems (these are all connected for one item). Thanks in advanced. Kr‎iel just dis‎covered a new p‎rotein, Kriel‎ase an‎d for it no‎t to unf‎old and lo‎se its fu‎nction, he realiz‎ed that the p‎rotein needs to be consta‎ntly imm‎ersed in a pH = 6.50 solut‎ion. He is the‎refore inte‎rested in pr‎eparing a 50 mL 0.08 M pH = 4.50 buff‎er to con‎tain the protein. He lis‎ted down the pu‎re acid‎s availabl‎e to his dis‎posal, and also looke‎d for their acid dissociation constant (Ka) values. Acid Name Ka1 Ka2 Ka3 Nitrous Acid (HNO2) 4.00 x 10-4 N/A N/A Acetic Acid (CH3COOH) 1.76 x 10-5 N/A N/A Ascorbic Acid (HAsc) 7.90 x 10-5 1.60 x 10-12 N/A Phosphoric Acid (H3PO4) 7.52 x 10-3 6.23 x 10-8 4.28 x 10-13 A.

Could you help me with this? I'm stuck on this question.

Your answer is incorrect. The volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by decomposing tissue and organs were studied in an effort to identify possible human-specific markers (PLOS ONE 2015 10(9): e0137341.). Of 452 VOCs isolated, six were found to be unique to humans, so this may prove to be a useful tool for forensic chemists trying to determine the source of unidentified remains. There are two doublets in the expected ¹H NMR spectrum of the following human-specific VOC. Identify the protons giving rise to each doublet. HOHHHH H3C НН H3C- "DOOS 0 LAK 123 HH 3 Identify the two groups of protons that give rise CH3 6 CH3 8 the doublets in the spectrum.
