- Define homologous series?arrow_forwardA chemist wanted to test his hypothesis that the disulfide bridges that form in many proteins do so after the minimum energy conformation of the protein has been achieved. He treated a sample of an enzyme that contained four disulfide bridges with 2-mercaptoethanol and then added urea to denature the enzyme. He slowly removed these reagents so that the enzyme could re-fold and re-form the disulfide bridges. The enzyme he recovered had 80% of its original activity. What would be the percent activity in the recovered enzyme if disulfide bridge formation were entirely random rather than determined by the tertiary structure? Does this experiment support his hypothesis?arrow_forwardTo the following statement, answer true or false and explain your answer. Q)All chiral molecules are optically active when pure.arrow_forward
- In the chiral carbon 4, how do i know the hydrogen is dash or wedge, why is the answer 4R instead of 4S?arrow_forwardTo the following statement, answer true or false and explain your answer. Q)All mixtures of chiral molecules are optically activearrow_forwardDetermine the chiral centres.arrow_forward
- PCl5 is known but PI5 is not known Why?arrow_forwardWhat amino acid is found at this position: 148 of 4ALD? Explain why this position in your protein is important and outline the effects the mutation will have on the 3D structure and the function of your protein ( 4ALD).arrow_forwardAspartame is a non-calorie sweetener. Aspartame is not a sugar and is, instead, a dipeptide. Which amino acids is aspartame synthesized from? Based on the molecular structure shown below, identify possible AH, B, and Y structures making aspartame a sweetener.arrow_forward
