Abosrbance (A 280) You are interested in isolating an enzyme Ribonuclease. Inside cells ribonuclease self-associates and can exist as dimers or trimers. The active form of the enzyme is monomeric with molecular weight of ~ 14Kda. In order to isolate ribonuclease, you use size exclusion chromatography column and obtain three peaks. Indicate which peak (starting from left to right) corresponds to Monomer (M), Dimer (D) and Trimer (T) forms of ribonuclease. PEAK I: PEAK II: PEAK III: Time м Fractions

- Approximate molecular weight for an unknown protein from gel-filtration experiment is 130 kDa. Thirty six mg of this pure protein was treated with excess of fluorodinitrobenzene. After the reaction and complete acid hydrolysis the mixture was found to contain 356 µg of dinitrobenzene derivative of methionine (free acid) and no other amino acid-dinitrobenzene derivatives. Is this protein consisting of single polypeptide chain or multiple subunits? If it consists of multiple subunits, then how many? From these data, can you calculate the molecular weight of the protein more precisely?GT 3 A. Write the structure of the pentapeptide GLDSC. B. What is the complete name of this pentapeptide? Show a tertiary structure of ACGGC after a disulfide bond forms. A sample of an unknown peptide was divided into two aliquots.
