Textbook Question
Chapter 8, Problem 8.6CC
You are studying the energetics of transport of the amino acid aspartic acid, whose side chain can exist in the nonionized neutral state (—COOH) or the ionized, negatively charged state (—COO–). To calculate the ΔG of transport into a cell, why would you need to know the ionization state of the side chain?
