The amino acid arginine ionizes according to the following scheme: (a) Calculate the isoelectric point of arginine. You can neglect contributions from form I. Why? (b) Calculate the average charge on arginine when pH = 9.20. (c) Is the value of average charge you calculated in part b reasonable, given the pI you calculated in part a? Explain your answer
After staining an SDS-PAGE gel with Coomassie Blue G-250, the protein bands are visualized by de-staining the gel in a Coomassie Blue G-250 de-staining solution. This solution is made up of 10% acetic acid, 50% methanol, and 40% distilled water. How much of each of these components do you need to prepare 5 liters of Coomassie Blue G-250 de-staining solution?
1) Indicate the total charge of the peptide at pH 7.0, 9.0, and 11.0 2) Determine the isoelectric point (pI) for this peptide. Show the relevant pKa’s and your calculation. 3) What is the fraction of the peptide that has the N-terminal amino group deprotonated at pH 9.
Suppose you have a solution of a protein, which contains a specific Tyr residue that has an actual (measured) pKa of 8.8. The protein binds a ligand by several noncovalent interactions, one of which is a hydrogen bond in which the Tyr phenolic hydroxyl group must serve as a hydrogen bond donor. Calculate the percentage of the protein molecules in which that tyrosyl residue's phenolic hydroxyl group could serve as a hydrogen bond donor at pH 8.5

Consider an amino acid (A) with no ionizable side chains, and call the three species involved in the acid/base equilibria H2A+, HA, and A- (see scheme below). Assume that pKa(1) = 2.0 and that pKa(2) = 9.0. Suppose that the total concentration of the amino acid is 1.0 mM.
