- Why is glycine the only amino acid commonly observed in peptides inconformations with phi and psi values which are not restricted to the values in the Ramachandran plot below?arrow_forward1. A mixture of proteins (pepsinogen, myoglobin, and cytochrome c) is subjected to anion exchange chromatography at pH 5.0. In what order would the following proteins be eluted from the DEAE cellulose anion exchanger by an increasing salt gradient: cytochrome c (pl, 10.6), pepsinogen (pl, 1.0) and myoglobin (pl, 6.8)arrow_forwardThe amino acid His is triprotic with pK1 (α-COOH) = 1.82, pK2 (α-NH3+) = 9.17, and pK3 (side chain) = 6.00. What is the net charge on His at pH 8?arrow_forward
- Ornithine is an amino acid that is not used in the synthesis of proteins, but is an important intermediate in several metabloic pathways including the urea cycle and the synthesis of polyamines. It has a perfectly ordinary terminal amino group and terminal carboxyl group like any other amino acid (so use the pKas for those groups given on your amino acids handout), and a side chain with a single ionizable side group with a pKa of 10.3. If ornithine is placed in solution at pH 7.0, it has a net charge of +1. What would the net charge on this amino acid be if the pH of the solution was raised to pH 12.0? Please explain your reasoning.arrow_forwardRank the migration rate of the following amino acids in ascending order towards the cathode when separated by electrophoresis in a solution of pH = 7. I. Lysine: pI = 9.87, II. Aspartate: pI = 5. 95, III. Alanine: pI = 6.02arrow_forwardBeginning at pH=pI you titrate 15mL of a 0.2M tetrapeptide Lys-Arg-His-Glu with 30mL of a 0.25M HCl. What is the final pH of the solution? (Relevant pKa values are: 2.2, 4.2, 6.0, 9.6, 10.5, and 12.5). At pH 9.7, would the predominant form of the tetrapeptide bind a cation exchange column, anion exchange column, or neither? In 1 sentence explain your answer.arrow_forward
- Calculate the Ksp for uraninite (reaction 1) and rutherfordine (reaction 2). UO2 + 4 H+ ---U4+ + 2 H2O (reaction 1) UO2CO3 ---UO22+ + CO32- (reaction 2)arrow_forwardQ1)In the pH range 1.82 to 8.99, H2Arg+ is the principal form of arginine. Which is the second most prominent species at pH 6.0? At pH 5.0?Q2) (a) Draw the structure of the predominant form (principal species) of 1,3-dihydroxybenzene at pH 9.00 and at pH 11.00.(b) What is the second most prominent species at each pH?(c) Calculate the percentage in the major form at each pHarrow_forwardConsider the Blosum-62 matrix in Figure 6.9. Replacement of which three amino acids never yields a positive score? What features of these residues might contribute to this observation?arrow_forward
- Hemoglobin A has a pI value of 5.6 whereas the variant hemoglobin M has an aspartate residue in place of the normal valine at position 85 of the alpha chain. What effect will this substitution have on the electrophoretic behavior of the protein at pH 7.0. (explain clearly the reason for your answer)arrow_forwardElectrophoresis of a mixture of lysine, histidine, and cysteine is carried out at pH 7.64. Describe the behavior of each amino acid under these conditions.arrow_forwardWhat are the basic medium, acid medium, and zwitterion formulas of phenylalanine?arrow_forward
