Question
Chapter 29, Problem 29.14AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The characteristics needed for a substance to be soluble in body fluids have to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Body fluids: About
Intracellular fluid: The fluid inside the cells.
Extracellular fluid: The fluids outside the cells and it include mainly plasma and interstitial fluid.
In-order for a substance to be soluble in water, it must be an ion, a small polar molecule or a large molecule having polar hydrophilic groups on its surface.

To map the active site of beta-lactamase, the enzyme was hydrolyzed with trypsin to yield a hexapeptide (P1) with the following amino acids. Glu, Lys, Leu, Phe, Met, and Ser.
a) Using the experimental results described below deduce the primary sequence of the active site hexapeptide.
Treatment of P1 with phenyl isothiocyanate yielded a PTH derivative of phenylalanine and a peptide (P2). Treatment of P1 with cyanogenbromide gave an acidic tetrapeptide (P3) and a dipeptide (P4).Treatment of P2 with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, followed by complete hydrolysis, yields N-2,4-dinitrophenyl-Glu. P1, P2, and P3 contain the active site serine.

Why doesn't D in this hexapeptide not participate in the hydrolysis of the beta-lactam ring even though S, K, and D are involved in the catalyst?
