- 22-35 Why is histidine considered a basic amino acid when the pKa of its side chain is 6.0?arrow_forward22-82 (Chemical Connections 22H) How does the fiberscope help to heal bleeding ulcers?arrow_forward2 The enzyme trypsin is synthesized by the body in the form of a long polypeptide chain containing 235 amino acids (trypsinogen), from which a piece must be cut before the trypsin can be active. Why does the body not synthesize trypsin directly?arrow_forward
- 5 Which of the following is a correct statement describing the induced-fit model of enzyme action? Substrates fit into the active site: (a) because both are exactly the same size and shape. (b) by changing their size and shape to match those of the active site. (c) by changing the size and shape of the active site upon binding.arrow_forward22-28 A tetrapeptide is abbreviated as DPKH. Which amino acid is at the N-terminus, and which is at the C-terminus?arrow_forwardWhat accounts for antibody diversity?arrow_forward
- A random-sequence polyribonucleotide produced by polynucleotide phosphorylase, with CDP and ADP in a 5:1 molar ratio stimulated the incorporation of proline, histidine, threonine, glutamine, asparagine, and lysine in a cell-free translation system in the following proportions: 100, 23.4, 20, 3.3, 3.3, and 1.0, respectively. What does this experiment reveal about the nucleotide composition of coding triplets for these six amino acids?arrow_forwardCalculate isoelectric point (PI) of the peptide GSTSRASPRM. pKa N-terminus = 9.3; pKa R = 12.5; pKa T = 13; pKa S = 13; pKa C-terminus = 4.3.arrow_forwardGiven the chart of pKa’s below, calculate the isoelectric point for tyrosinearrow_forward
