A student analyzed a mixture of amino acids using thin layer chromatography where the stationary phase is a silica-coated plate. For the mobile phase, he used 50% ethyl acetate in hexane. The mixture contained three (3) amino acids whose structures are shown below. OH Hollo HO OH OH OH NH₂ NH₂ NH₂ Threonine Valine Glutamic acid a. Identify spots A, B, and C in the developed TLC plate below based on the structures of the amino acids above (ie. which spot is threonine, valine, glutamic acid?). Hint: determine how the structures of the given amino acids differ A. BO С. b. Threonine can be phosphorylated using an enzyme called protein kinase. Given the same conditions the student used in his analysis, will the phosphorylated threonine have a higher, smaller, or the same Rf value compared to threonine?

1) a)What is affinity chromatography and what is it used for? b) A drug called Bamlanivimab is used to treat infections with SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19).This drug was developed by isolating antibodies from the serum of a patient who recovered from Covid-19.What is possibly on the stationary phase in a column used to isolate antibodies to SARS-CoV-2? How are the antibodies eluted off the column to isolate them for drug development?
About a decade ago, it was more common to use peptide mass mapping to identify a protein cut from a gel. Peptide mass mapping involves digesting the protein with trypsin and then measuring the peptide masses using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The more superior method of identifying a protein from a gel is to digest the protein with trypsin and then use liquid chromatography to separate the peptides. The separated peptides are then electrosprayed into a tandem mass spectrometer. The MS-MS data is uploaded into a database such as MASCOT for protein identification. Explain why the LC-MS-MS method is superior to the peptide mass mapping method.

Based on the developed chromatogram and your knowledge about TLC, what can you say about compounds 1 and 2? Is TLC the most accurate and reliable chromatographic technique used in analytical chemistry? If yes, why? If not, what is a more accurate and reliable chromatographic technique than TLC?
Use the following chromatogram of standard amino acids: Which of the following statements BEST describe the given chromatogram?
