What peptides are expected to be produced when a-melanotropin
(Problem 2) is cleaved by (a) trypsin, (b) cyanogen bromide, and
(c) thermolysin?
Somatostatin is a tetradecapeptide of the hypothalamus that inhibits the release of pituitary growth hormone. Its amino acid sequence has been determined by a combination of Edman degradations and enzymic hydrolysis experiments. On the basis of the following data, deduce the primary structure of somatostatin: 1. Edman degradation gave PTH-Ala. 2. Selective hydrolysis gave peptides having the following indicated sequences: Phe-Trp Thr-Ser-Cys Lys-Thr-Phe Thr-Phe-Thr-Ser-Cys Asn-Phe-Phe-Trp-Lys Ala-Gly-Cys-Lys-Asn-Phe 3. Somatostatin has a disulfide bridge.
Given the following peptideSEPIMAPVEYPK(a) Estimate the net charge at pH 7 and at pH 12. Assume the pKa valuesgiven in Table (b) How many peptides would result if this peptide were treated with(1) cyanogen bromide, (2) trypsin, or (3) chymotrypsin?(c) Suggest a method for separating the peptides produced by chymotrypsintreatment.
