b) Consider the following experimental results: Total hydrolysis of a nonapeptide gave: Ala,Arg,Glu,Leu,Lys,Met,Phe,Tyr,Val One fragment from CNBr treatment was: Tyr-Leu-Lys One fragment from Chymotrypsin treatment was Arg-Glu-Met-Tyr One fragment from Trypsin treatment was Val-Ala-Phe-Arg i. Deduce, with suitable explanations, the amino acid sequence of the nonapeptide.
