(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The mechanism for the reaction of the N terminus of the peptide with 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene.

Interpretation: The mechanism for the reaction of the N terminus of the peptide with 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene is to be determined.

Concept introduction: The process in which a proper series of amino acids is maintained in the  peptide chain is known as edmann degradation. this process includes the labelling of terminal amino residue  followed by the cleavage of this terminal amino residue from the peptide chain. the peptide bonds between other amino acids do not get disturb during this process.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The reason that the Edman degradation is usually preferred over the Sanger method.
