A 15 amino acid unit polypeptide, a billion-dollar industry polypeptide known as Kugakinin, which enhances memory power tremendously for those who take organic chemistry finals. A complete hydrolysis (6M HCl, reflux 24 hours) of kugakinin gave following amino acids: 3Gly, 2Ser, 3Ala, 2Phe, Leu, Arg, Tyr, Val, Pro DNFB test showed Gly and Carboxypeptidase showed Ala. Partial hydrolysis gave following di and tri peptides. Gly.Ala + Ala.Phe + Phe.Gly + Gly.Leu.Arg +Arg.Ser + Ser.Tyr +Tyr.Phe + Phe.Val.Ala + Ala.Gly.Pro + Gly.Pro + Pro.Ser + Ser.Ala Please find the sequence of this wonder drug.
A naturally occurring amino acid such as alanine has a group that is a carboxylic acid and a group that is a protonated amine. a. If the pKa value of a carboxylic acid such as acetic acid is about 5 (see Table 2.1), then why is the pKa value of the carboxylic acid group of alanine so much lower? b. Draw the structure of alanine in a solution at pH = 0. c. Draw the structure of alanine in a solution at physiological pH (pH 7.4). d. Draw the structure of alanine in a solution at pH = 12. e. Is there a pH at which alanine is uncharged (that is, neither group has a charge)? f. At what pH does alanine have no net charge (that is, the amount of negative charge is the same as the amount of positive charge)?
A chemically modified guanidino group is present in cimetidine (Tagamet), a widely prescribed drug for the control of gastric acidity and peptic ulcers. Cimetidine reduces gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the interaction of histamine with gastric H2 receptors. In the development of this drug, a cyano group was added to the substituted guanidino group to alter its basicity. Do you expect this modified guanidino group to be more basic or less basic than the guanidino group of arginine? Explain.
