- 80mL of a 0.3M solution of hexapeptide Leu-His-Cys-Glu-Asn-Arg is adjusted to pH=pl. The solution is then titrated with 0.2M HCI to a final pH of 2.1.

Relevant pka values are: 2.1, 4.3, 6.0, 8.3, 9.8, and 12.5.A sample (660 mg) of a (homo)oligomeric protein of molecular weight of 132,000 Da was treated with an excess of 2,4-dinitro-fluorobenzene until the reaction was complete.

The mixture contains Protein A (pl=6.0), B (pl35.0), C (pl=7.5), D (pl =1), and E (pl=4.0). The protein mixture is prepared in a buffer solution pH =5. When the protein mixture is loaded onto the column, and the column is washed with a buffer solution pH 5, which protein(s) will be captured by DEAE-sepharose in the column? O Protein B because it is predominantly in net negative charge form. O Proteins D and E because they have predominately net negative charge in pH 5 solution O Proteins A, C, D and E because they have charges O Proteins A and C because both both predominantly have net positive charges O Proteins Band E because both predominantly have net positive chargesThe amino acid arginine ionizes according to the following scheme: (a) Calculate the isoelectric point of arginine.

Explain your answerWhich of the following situations would produce a Hill plot with nH < 1.0? Explain your reasoning in each case.(a) The protein has multiple subunits, each with a single ligand-binding site. Binding of ligand to one site decreases the binding affinity of other sites for the ligand.(b) The protein is a single polypeptide with two ligand-binding sites, each having a different affinity for the ligand.(c) The protein is a single polypeptide with a single ligand-binding site. As purified, the protein preparation is heterogeneous, containing some protein molecules that are partially denatured and thus have a lower binding affinity for the ligand.
