Question
Chapter 2, Problem 27P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The reason why the definite groups in the folded proteins have about more than 500 pKavalues should be determined.
Concept introduction:
A peptide bond exists between the two amino acids. During the formation of a peptide bond, a molecule of water is released. The carboxyl group of one amino acid gets linked with the amino group of the other amino acid. Polypeptides and proteins are the chains formed by the amino acids.

Purification of a protein of unknown structure has been achieved. The natural protein has a molecular weight of 240,000, according to size-exclusion chromatography. Using a concentration of 6 M guanidine hydrochloride in the chromatography, a single peak can be identified as the molecular weight (MW) 60,000 of a protein. B-mercaptoethanol (BME) and guanidine hydrochloride (GHC) are used in tandem to produce proteins with mass masses of 34,000 and 26,000, respectively. The structure of this protein can be inferred from these facts.
Predict the number of bands and apparent mol. wt. of the following proteins on SDS gels.
1. A trimeric protein containing three chains, each with a molecular weight of 60,000 Da (60 kDa).
Why different amino acids have different Rf values? If you separate a mixture of amino acids consist of glutamic acid, histidine, glycine, tryptophan and isoleucine with paper chromatography using NH3: Benzene (10:90) as a mobile phase what do you expect the Rf values of the amino acids will be?
