Electrophoresis is the movement of molecules within a matrix (paper, gel) to which an electric field is applied – from a central origin, a molecule with a net positive charge moves toward the negative pole (often called cathode) and a molecule with a net negative charge moves toward the positive pole (often called anode). for the pentapeptide: N – Lys - gly - asp - his - glu - C What is the net charge at pH 3? 2.What is the net charge at pH 11? 3. At pH 3 will the pentapeptide move to the negative pole, positive pole or not move? 4. At pH 11, the same question.

The bacterially produced antibiotic gramicidin A forms channels in cell membranes that allow the free diff usion of Na+ and K+ ions, thereby killing the cell. This peptide consists of a sequence of Dand L-amino acids. The sequence of a segment of fi ve amino acids in gramicidin A is R-Gly-L-Ala-D-Leu-L-Ala-D-Val-R′.
