Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The Fischer projections of all 2-ketopentose need to be drawn along with their descriptions as D-2-ketopentoses, L-2-ketopentoses and enantiomers.

Concept Introduction: A convention used to represent a 3-D stereoformula in 2-D representation is said to be Fischer projections. In this projection, the vertical lines represent bonds below the plane of the paper and horizontal lines represents bonds above the plane of the paper.

For a D-sugar, the -OH group attached to the bottom chiral carbon is present at the right-hand side whereas for L-sugar it is present at left-hand side.

4. Refer to the data below to answer the following questions: The octapeptide saralasin is a specific antagonist of angiotensin II. A derivative of saralasin is used therapeutically as an antihypertensive. Amino acid analysis of saralasin show the presence of the following amino acids: Ala, Arg, His, Pro, Sar, Tyr, Val, Val A.Sar is the abbreviation for sarcosine, N-methyl aminoethanoic acid. Draw the structure of sarcosine. B. N-Terminal analysis by the Edman method shows saralasin contains sarcosine at the N-terminus. Partial hydrolysis of saralasin with dilute hydrochloric acid yields the following fragments: Tyr-Val-His Sar-Arg-Val His-Pro-Ala Val-Tyr-Val Arg-Val-Tyr What is the structure of saralasin?
What is the structure of the DNA backbone?
