Question
Chapter 24, Problem 22P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The amino acid sequence of bradykinin is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
A protein or peptide sequence is formed as a result of the peptide linkage between the amino acids. Further, different chemicals or enzyme may be used in order to decode the sequence of the amino acids, as the chemicals and the enzymes are only able to cleave the peptide sequenced at specific locations.

If the pH of a solution of Arginine is equal to a half of the 3 pka values of all of its functional groups, what will be the charge on the majority of the Arg molecules in that solution? Please explain. Am i supposedd to add up the three pka values and then divide it in half to find the pH? Thanks
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
Draw a structural formula for the form of amino acid most prevalent at pH 1.0.
(a) Arginine

- A chemically modified guanidino group is present in cimetidine (Tagamet), a widely prescribed drug for the control of gastric acidity and peptic ulcers. Cimetidine reduces gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the interaction of histamine with gastric H2 receptors. In the development of this drug, a cyano group was added to the substituted guanidino group to alter its basicity. Do you expect this modified guanidino group to be more basic or less basic than the guanidino group of arginine?
