(a)
To determine: The slowest migrating polypeptide among the three given polypeptides in an ion-exchange chromatography having resin beads coated with positively charged groups.
Introduction:
In ion-exchange chromatography, polar molecules or ions are separated on the basis of their affinity to ion exchanger. Proteins, amino acids, and small
(b)
To determine: The slowest migrating polypeptide among the three given polypeptides in an ion-exchange chromatography having resin beads coated with negatively charged groups.
Introduction:
In ion-exchange chromatography, polar molecules or ions are separated on the basis of their affinity to ion exchanger. Proteins, amino acids, and small nucleotides can be seprated with the help of ion exchange chromatography. Ion exchange chromatography is of two types; cation-exchange chromatography and anion-exchange chromatography. Cation-exchange chromatography is used for the separation of positively charged molecules.
(c)
To determine: The slowest migrating polypeptide among the three given polypeptides in a size-exclusion chromatography column designed to separate small peptides.
Introduction:
Size-exclusion chromatography is also termed as molecular sieve chromatography. In this procedure, the molecules are separated according to their size and molecular weight. Size-exclusion chromatography is basically used for macromolecules such as proteins.
(d)
To determine: The peptide that contains ATP-binding motif shown in the given sequence logo.
Introduction:
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a complex organic compound that cell produces during the process of

- Which features of the curves in Figure 30-2 indicates that the enzyme is not consumed in the overall reaction? ES is lower in energy that E + S and EP is lower in energy than E + P. What does this tell you about the stability of ES versus E + S and EP versus E + P.arrow_forwardLooking at the figure 30-5 what intermolecular forces are present between the substrate and the enzyme and the substrate and cofactors.arrow_forwardprovide short answers to the followings Urgent!arrow_forward
- Pyruvate is accepted into the TCA cycle by a “feeder” reaction using the pyruvatedehydrogenase complex, resulting in acetyl-CoA and CO2. Provide a full mechanismfor this reaction utilizing the TPP cofactor. Include the roles of all cofactors.arrow_forwardB- Vitamins are converted readily into important metabolic cofactors. Deficiency inany one of them has serious side effects. a. The disease beriberi results from a vitamin B 1 (Thiamine) deficiency and ischaracterized by cardiac and neurological symptoms. One key diagnostic forthis disease is an increased level of pyruvate and α-ketoglutarate in thebloodstream. How does this vitamin deficiency lead to increased serumlevels of these factors? b. What would you expect the effect on the TCA intermediates for a patientsuffering from vitamin B 5 deficiency? c. What would you expect the effect on the TCA intermediates for a patientsuffering from vitamin B 2 /B 3 deficiency?arrow_forwardDraw the Krebs Cycle and show the entry points for the amino acids Alanine,Glutamic Acid, Asparagine, and Valine into the Krebs Cycle - (Draw the Mechanism).
