Question
Chapter 3.8, Problem DQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The correct stereochemical descriptor for the given amino acids has to be given.
Concept Introduction:
Priority rules:
- Priorities based on
atomic number
- When priority cannot be assigned on the basis of the atoms bonded directly to the chiral center
- Atoms participating in a double or triple bond are considered to be bonded to an equivalent number of phantom atoms.
For example,
- Priority assignment is made at the first point of difference between groups (should not be based on the larger group).

According to the paper, F486 is a phenylalanine residue (i.e., an amino acid that is part of a chain that forms a protein) on SARS-CoV-2. It has an important interaction with ACE2 (best seen in Fig. 1(C) and Fig. 2(A)). Looking at this phenylalanine and the green residues surrounding it, which statement best describes the interaction that could be occurring?
a) It forms a hydrogen bond with Y83.
b) It forms a dipole-dipole interaction with M82.
c) It forms London dispersion forces with surrounding residues.
d) It encounters repulsions from surrounding residues.
