Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The structure of imine derivative of pyridoxal phosphate with the lysine residue of protein is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The chemical compounds that consist of a double bond between carbon and nitrogen atom (C=N) in their structure are commonly known as imine.

The chemical compounds in which carbon is bonded with the acidic and basic group along with hydrocarbon side chain are known as amino acids. They combine sequentially to generate a protein.

Give the structure of azo dye that would be formed from the given amine and coupling component.
The side chain of cysteine is weakly acidic.  Suppose in a protein, the side chain of a cysteine residue is surrounded by the side chains of several isoleucine residues.  Would this make the side chain of the cysteine residue more acidic or less acidic?  Please explain your answer.
Bradykinin is a linear nonapeptide released by blood plasma globulin in response to a wasp sting. It is a very potent pain-causing agent. Its constituent amino acids are 2R, G, 2F, 3P, S. The sue of 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene and carboxypeptidase shows that both terminal residues are arginine. Partial hydrolysis of bradykinin gives the following di- and tripeptides: FS + PGF +PP + SPF + FR + RP
