Question
Chapter 27, Problem 27.21AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The primary purpose of telomeres has to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Telomeres: They are the compound structure seen in the end of the chromosome.
Telomeres of human consist of long repetitive series of
Telomeres are covers present at the end which protect the chromosome ends from damaging it accidently. It also prevents the ends of DNA from fusing together with DNA of another chromosome.

Two tetrapeptides were isolated from a possum's sweat glands. These peptides were sequenced using Edman degradation and the following 2 sequences were obtained:
Gly-Asp-Ala-Leu
Gly-Asp-Asp-Leu
Can you please help show the titration curve for both of these peptides and calculate the PI?
