Chapter 27, Problem 27.46AP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The isoelectric point of lysozyme is to be identified.

Concept introduction:

The isoelectric point is the point where the pH of the amino acid is neutral. At the isoelectric point, zwitter ion is formed when the carboxyl group donates a proton to the amino group.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
(b) Using alanine as an example, draw possible conformations of alanine in a peptide chain and identify which conformer is favoured. (c) Discuss how considering 'allylic strain' [see pages 33-39 of handout 1] can explain the favoured conformation in part b above, and how this is relevant to the B-sheet conformation in peptides/proteins.
h) Specify the absolute (R/S) configuration of the amino group in structure IV. (i) If the substituents in structures I, IV and V were identical (all OH or all NH2), which structure would result in a meso compound?  (j) If each hydroxy group for structures I, II and VI were replaced with another amino group, which compound would be made optically inactive?
indicate the RIGHT alternative: (a) The Zwitterion form of an amino acid exists only at a point pH value. (b) In a peptide bond there is free rotation at the C-N bond. (c) In a polypeptide, the terminal carboxyl group may be present in its amide form. (d) At a pH greater than pI, an amino acid tends to move towards the cathode in an electrophoresis. (e) At any pH below pI, the predominant form of an amino acid is negatively charged.
