3. Gliadin peptides can be classified as "toxic" or "immunogenic" depending on how they induce intestinal damage. The 13-residue toxic peptide was found in a type of alpha-gliadin with the sequence: PGQQQPFPPQQPY Convert this amino acid sequence into three-letter code. For example, NYC becomes Arg-Tyr-Cys
