(a)
Interpretation:
The reason as to why the two protecting groups used for lysine in the synthesis of the peptide
Concept introduction:
Solid-phase peptide synthesis is a technique that is used for peptide synthesis. The peptide is synthesis from C-terminal to N-terminal. It is reverse in biological cells. In this amino protected amino acid is bound covalently on solid phase material with an ester or amide linkage. Then it is deprotected and reacts with another amino protected amino acid. This cycle continues until the desired peptide is not obtained.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of each compound obtained from the coupling and decoupling of resin-bound peptide with their explanation is to be stated.

- What is the Answer for (a.) ?arrow_forwardSubject-chemistryarrow_forwardDetermine the primary structure of an octapeptide from the following data: Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis gives 2 Arg, Leu, Lys, Met, Phe, Ser, and Tyr. Carboxypeptidase A releases Ser. Edman’s reagent releases Leu. Treatment with cyanogen bromide forms two peptides with the following amino acid compositions: 1. Arg, Phe, Ser 2. Arg, Leu, Lys, Met, Tyr Trypsin-catalyzed hydrolysis forms the following two amino acids and two peptides: 1. Arg 2. Ser 3. Arg, Met, Phe 4. Leu, Lys, Tyrarrow_forward
- Draw a structure for a peptide that gives Gly, Ile & Phe on hydrolysis and fails to react with phenyl isothiocyanate. Mass spectrometry gives a molar mass of 317 for this peptide. Draw the predominant structure at pH 7 using the charge tools to adjust formal charges.arrow_forwardG.293.arrow_forward1. Taking the structure of the amino acids into account, give a comparative discussion pK values where histidine=2 and alanine=2.arrow_forward
- help with part (i) and (iii)arrow_forward(ii) The electrophoresis of a sample containing 2-amino-4-methylpentanoic acid. (pKa of a-COOH = 2.2, pKa of a-NH;* = 9.1) was carried out at pH 8.20. (I) Towards which electrode does the amino acid move?arrow_forwardDraw the structure of the peptide ENDQCW. Draw the stereochemistry of the amino acids. Show the ionization state that would be the major form at pH 1. What is the isoelectric point of the peptide?arrow_forward
- 4b) Canavanine is closely related to arginine, and like arginine its side group has a +1 charge when protonated. If you dissolved canavanine in an aqueous solution at pH 10, what would the net charge on a molecule of canavanine be? Please show your work or make it clear how you determined the charge contribution from each ionizable group.arrow_forwardDraw a dipeptide with alanine (R = CH3) at the C-terminus and serine (R = CH2OH) at the N- terminus. The peptide should: %3D %3D show the amino acid residues with correct stereochemistry for naturally occurring amino acids, contain an s-trans-peptide link; indicate any charges as they would be predominantly found at physiological pH (-7).arrow_forward(b) Describe how the charge of some amino groups in a protein might differ at pH 9.0 and pH 5.0. the charge on the amino group will differ at pH 5 and pH 9 which will depend on the pKa of the amino acid. (c) Describe how the charge of some carboxyl groups in a protein might differ at pH 9.0 and pH 5.0. charge on carboxyl group will differ at pH 5 and pH 9 which will depend on the pKa of the amino acid.
