Question
Chapter 9, Problem 31CQ
Summary Introduction
To explain: The reason why excessive macropinocytosis would lead to cell death.
Concept introduction: Macropinocytosis is a regulated form of endocytosis. It mediates the non-selective uptake of solute molecules, nutrients and antigens. In the macrophages and the dendritic cells, macropinocytosis is a chief pathway for the capture of antigens. Also, it is relevant to tumor metastasis and cell migration.

Two tetrapeptides were isolated from a possum's sweat glands. These peptides were sequenced using Edman degradation and the following 2 sequences were obtained:
Gly-Asp-Ala-Leu
Gly-Asp-Asp-Leu
What is the structure of the PTH derivative produced during the last round of amino acid sequencing?
What is the primary sequence of this undecapeptide? Also, if x-ray crystallography shows a highly stable hairpin turn within the polypeptide, what about the primary sequence explains this structural feature?
