Question
Chapter 4, Problem 21CQ
Summary Introduction
To explain: Whether a polypeptide of Poly (Tyr) will be more soluble or less soluble than free Tyr.
Concept introduction: Tyrosine is a hydrophobic amino acid that is barely soluble in water. Solubility will increase if polar groups like carboxyl group and amino group are free to interact with water or other molecules.
