Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The structure of tripeptide tryosylleucylisoleucine has to be specified using three-letter symbol for the amino acids.
Concept introduction: A compound possessing three amino acids joined together by two peptide bonds is known as tripeptide. The amino acids present in the tripeptide are linked via peptide linkages.
(b)
Interpretation: The number of peptide bonds in the tripeptide tryosylleucylisoleucine has to be predicted.
Concept introduction: A compound possessing three amino acids joined together by two peptide bonds is known as tripeptide. The amino acids present in the tripeptide are linked via peptide linkages.
(c)
Interpretation: In the tripeptide tryosylleucylisoleucine, the amino acid residue which has the largest R group has to be predicted.
