Concept explainers
a)
To determine:
Whether isoleucine is polar or non polar, in case of polar, nature of R group as acidic, basic or neutral should be determined. Whether the amino acid is hydrophilic or hydrophobic must be determined.
Isoleucine is nonpolar amino acid.
It’s hydrophobic in nature.
b)
