Chapter 29, Problem 29.47P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The steps that show that resolution process of alanine are to be stated.

Concept introduction: The chemical compounds in which carbon atom is bonded to amine and carboxyl group along with hydrocarbon side chain are known as amino acids. Amino acids rotate plane polarized light toward left and right due to presence of stereogenic center.

(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. (d) Given your answers to parts (b) and (c), what kind of intramolecular interactions in beta-galactosidase are most likely to be affected by a change in pH from 9.0 to 5.0? (e) Could the interactions you mention in part (d) affect the catalytic activity of beta-galactosidase?
the pKa values for phenylalanine are 1.83 (carboxyl group) and 9.13 (amino group). Use the Henderson-hasselbach equation to determine the ratio of the acidic and basic forms of each of the ionizing groups of phenylalanine at neutral pH. Based on this, draw the predominant structure of phenylalanine at neutral pH.
Answer the following questions on the basis of the free energies of formation at 25°C shown in the table at the top of the next page: (a) Does the peptide bond between alanine and glycine form spontaneously under standard conditions?
