At pH = 7.0 the degree of %3D protonation of histidine side chain (pKa = 6.5) will be. %3D

A cytosolic protein has an important alpha amino group. The pKa of this group is approximately 8 when exposed to water outside of a protein. 1. What would happen to the pKa if this group was instead buried in the hydrophobic interior of the protein? Explain. 2. Let’s say in the hydrophobic interior of the protein, the group forms an ionic bond with a carboxylate group of the side chain of a charged Asparagine residue. How would the pKa of this alpha amino group compare with the pKa of the alpha amino group in the hydrophobic interior of the protein without a nearby Asparagine residue to form this ionic bond? Explain.

a. Suppose that you have the peptide Ala-Gly-Tyr-His-Leu and you treat it with FDNB and then 6M HCl. Draw the structures of all the products that you will have in solution (assume all reactions to go to completion).

The last residue of the protein (tail) is Tryptophan, and the first residue (head) is labeled with IAEDANS acceptor. Estimate the length of the protein (head to tail) if the efficiency of RET measures at 0.01 Please show step by step and how to get the 34.014 number

In a pUC19 digest for 1 ug of pUC19 (DNA conc. 282ng/ul) using 10X Cutsmart buffer, pure water and BamHI enzyme in a total volume of 40 ul, how much of each solution is added to the total volume?

Suppose you have a solution of a protein, which contains a specific Tyr residue that has an actual (measured) pKa of 8.8. The protein binds a ligand by several noncovalent interactions, one of which is a hydrogen bond in which the Tyr phenolic hydroxyl group must serve as a hydrogen bond donor. Calculate the percentage of the protein molecules in which that tyrosyl residue's phenolic hydroxyl group could serve as a hydrogen bond donor at pH 8.5

What would the net charge be of a polypeptide with the sequence M-D-R-N-Q-K-R-W at pH 8? hint ionizable groups include N-terminus (pKa = 9.0), D (pKa = 3.9), R (pKa = 12.5), K (pКa %3D 10.5) O +2 O-1 O +1
