Question
***not graded, just a practice problem I do not understand. Thank you so much!

Transcribed Image Text:### Ionization State of Histidine
Each ionizable group of an amino acid can exist in one of two states, charged or neutral. The electric charge on the functional group is determined by the relationship between its pKa and the pH of the solution. This relationship is described by the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation.
#### (a) Histidine has three ionizable functional groups.
Write the equilibrium equations for its three ionizations and assign the proper pKa for each ionization. Draw the structure of histidine in each ionization state. What is the net charge on the histidine molecule in each ionization state?
#### (b) Draw the structures of the predominant ionization state of histidine at pH 1, 4, 8, and 12.
Note that the ionization state can be approximated by treating each ionizable group independently.
#### (c) What is the net charge of histidine at pH 1, 4, 8, and 12?
For each pH, will histidine migrate toward the anode (+) or cathode (-) when placed in an electric field?

**Graphs or Diagrams Explanation:**
If there were graphs or diagrams accompanying this text, they would typically illustrate the following concepts:
1. **Ionization Equilibrium Equations and pKa Values**:
- This could include a table listing the pKa values for each ionizable group within histidine.
- Example equilibrium equations describing the ionization process might also be presented.
2. **Histidine Structures in Different Ionization States**:
- Diagrams showing the molecular structure of histidine at different states of ionization, indicating the presence or absence of charges on different groups.
3. **Predominant Ionization States at Different pH Levels**:
- Illustrations of histidine's structure at pH levels 1, 4, 8, and 12.
- Each diagram would reflect how the amino acid structure changes with varying pH.
4. **Electrophoretic Migration**:
- A chart or diagram that shows how histidine migrates toward the anode (+) or cathode (-) at different pH levels based on its net charge.
Understanding the ionization state of histidine and its behavior in an electric field at varying pH levels is critical for various applications in biochemistry and molecular biology, particularly for protein structure and function

- In the following sub-questions, use your book and notes to generate an argument for each model of light. Remember, on the first day of class we discussed that argumentation requires: ● a claim (which I've given), • evidence (which you should look up in the form of data or scientific principles) and reasoning that connects the evidence to the claim (which you should generate from your understanding so far).arrow_forwardPart carrow_forwardName: Part I: Calibration of the Plastic Pipette Number of Drops Total Mass (g) Mass of 10 Drops (g) Volume of 10 Drops (mL) 23.3124 10 23.8216 20 24.2999 30 24.8245 1.
