- Draw a peptide for cys-asn- pro-gly (Using the same format in picture)Consider the peptide Asp-Lys-Phe-Glu-Asn-Tyr-Gln-Val-Cys. In a single beaker, you treat this peptide with 2 proteases. One protease cleaves at the N-terminus of aromatic R groups and the other cleaves at the C-terminus of polar, non-ionizable R groups. Following the enzymatic digestion, you want to separate your peptide fragments so that you can identify them. You choose to separate the fragments using an anion exchange column. Beginning at pH=6 you apply your peptide fragments to the column and you gradually decrease the pH of the column stopping the separation when the pH of the column equals 4. Omitting chemical structures, write the amino acid sequence of the peptide fragments that are produced from this digest. Write the order that these fragments will elute from the column (if at all). (Relevant pKa values are: 2.1, 3.8, 4.3, 8.3, 9.6, 10.1, and 10.5)What is the pI of this Met-Glu-Arg-Ile-Cys-Ala?
- Draw Glu-His-Trp-Ser-Gly-Leu-Arg-Pro-Gly peptide. What is the net charge of this peptide at pH 3, 8 and 11? What can you say about pI value of this peptide?Given the peptide Val-Ser-Gln-Lys The lateral chain of one of these amino acids can be modified by N-acetylation. Write the semi‐developed form of the lateral chain of this modified amino acid at pH 7 The lateral chain of one of these amino acids can be modified by phosphorylation. Write the semi‐developed form of the lateral chain of this modified amino acid at pH 7.After the polypeptide shown below was treated with maleic anhydride, it was hydrolyzed by trypsin. (After a polypeptide is treated with maleic anhydride, trypsin will cleave the polypeptide only on the C-side of arginine.) Gly-Ala-Asp-Ala-Leu-Pro-Gly-Ile-Leu-Val-Arg-Asp-Val-Gly-Lys-Val-Glu-Val-Phe-Glu-Ala-Gly-Arg-Ala-Glu-Phe-Lys-Glu-Pro-Arg-Leu-Val-Met-Lys-Val-Glu-Gly-Arg-Pro-Val-Gly-Ala-Gly-Leu-Trp In what order will the fragments be eluted from an anion-exchange column using a buffer of pH = 5?
- Draw the complete structure of the tetrapeptide Val-Cys-Glu-Ser.Amino acids project from each polypeptide backbone in a β-sheet in an alternating fashion (oneabove the plane and the next below the plane – see Fig 3.8B). Consider the following proteinsequence: Leu-Lys-Val-Asp-Ile-Ser-Leu-Arg-Leu-Lys-Ile-Arg-Phe-Glu.a. Is there a pattern to these amino acids? If so, what is it? b. What does this sequence of amino acids mean for the hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity of theresulting β-sheet? c. Can you make a prediction about how the β-sheet will be arranged in higher levels of protein structure? If so, what prediction would you make?Consider the following two peptides: I. N-Pro-Pro - Glu - Glu - Tyr - His - Cys - Ala - Glu - Gln - Lys - Leu - Ser - Ser - Phe-Leu- Thr - C II. N-Pro-Pro - Lys - Arg - Gly - Tyr - His - Gly - Glu - Asp - Glu - Asp - Glu - Ser - Gly-Phe- Tyr-C Give three reasons why_peptide I is more likely to form an alpha helix in aqueous solution at pH 7.0.
