Question
Give typing answer with explanation and conclusion
On paper draw a dipeptide, clearly showing the peptide bond joining the two amino acids together. If the two amino acids are valine and threonine, predict the overall charge of the dipeptide at pH 7. Do not forget to consider the amino (N-terminal) and carboxy (C-terminal) of the dipeptide, as well as the R groups.

- You will now build a 15 amino acid peptide using another paper or wire backbone as you did above. You will pick 15 amino acids, matching the criteria below, and put them onto your backbone about 3 inches apart. This will be the primary structure of your novel protein. Select 15 amino acids that meet the following criteria 6 hydrophobic R groups 2 acidic R groups 2 basic R groups 2 cysteine R groups 3 hydrophilic R groups Place the R groups in any order you choose on your paper or wire backbone as you did above. Start at the N-terminus and place each R group about 3 inches apart until all 15 are attached to the mini toolbar. You have just built the primary structure of your protein. Question 1: Record the sequence of amino acids in your protein, starting with the N-terminus. The N-terminus is the end of the polypeptide that has a free nitrogen group. The C-terminus, or carboxyl end, will have a free carboxyl group.
