The molecular weight of a protein extracted from Salmon sperm is 10 000 amu. Analysis of the protein gave the following masses of amino acids: Ile 1.28g, Ala 0.89g, Val 3.68g, Gly 3.01g, Ser 7.29g, Pro 6.90g,Arg 86.40g. What is the molecular formula of the protein?
Complete hydrolysis of a 100.00-g sample of a peptide gave the following amounts of individual amino acids (molarmasses, in g/mol, appear in parentheses):3.00 g of glycine (75.07) ;0.90 g of alanine (89.10);3.70 g of valine (117.15);6.90 g of proline (115.13);7.30 g of serine (105.10);86.00 g of arginine (174.21);(a) Why does the total mass of amino acids exceed the mass of peptide? (b) What are the relative numbers of amino acids in the peptide? (c) What is the minimum molar mass of the peptide?
Determine the molecular formula and calculate the molar mass (in g/mol) of histidine, the essential amino acid. The formula should be
