EBK INTRODUCTION TO CHEMISTRY
- In the structures of T—A and C—G base pairs, there are three amino groups specifically labeled as “sp2 hybridized and planar”. What is the primary difference between these structures and that of aniline that lead to their planarity? 1. In contrast to aniline, the amino groups on the DNA bases are necessary to make the heterocyclic rings aromatic. 2. In contrast to aniline, the contributing structures that delocalize the nitrogen lone pairs onto the rings creates partial negative charges on electronegative atoms. 3. In contrast to aniline, the hydrogen bond accepting ability of the lone pairs on the -NH2 groups of the DNA bases is better when these amino groups are sp2 hybridized. 4. Both 2 and 3.arrow_forwardQuestion 22arrow_forwardWhich isomer—(R)-alanine or (S)-alanine—is d-alanine? a. Which isomer—(R)-aspartate or (S)-aspartate—is d-aspartate? b.

It is essential that we know the stereochemistry of these unnatural amino acids. Below are two line structures of two unnatural amino acids.

- Which statement about saccharides is correct? (A). Alpha anomers are more common than beta anoomers. (B). Two monosaccharides can form a disaccharide and oxygen. (C). Polysaccharides with alpha or beta glycosidic linkages have the different properties. (D). Disaccharides can be cyclic or acyclic.arrow_forwardSolve all partsarrow_forwardExplain why methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) is a problem in clinical medicine.arrow_forward
