- Draw the L enantiomer in a Fischer projection for each amino acid; identify the amino acid as neutral, acidic, or basic. Give the three-letter sign [3], and the one-letter symbol [4].arginine a. arginine b. arginine c. a. glutamic acid b. glutamic acid c. glutamic acidtyrosine b. valine c. argininearrow_forward1. Label the ALPHA-Carbon, AMINO Group, CARBOXYL Group, and AMINO Side Chain of the following amino acids:- Proline- Glycine- Aspartic acid- Asparagine- Lysine 2. Write the structure of the following polypeptide chainsa.) Asp-Leu-Serb.) Thr-Trpc.) Gln-Ala-Prod.) Ile-Met-Cys-Gluarrow_forward4. You're working on a structure of a protein and its folding. You think that the interaction between Asp123 and Arg29 is important in determining the structure of the protein. a) What type of amino acid is Asp (acidic, basic, hydrophobic, or polar)? b) What type of amino acid is Arg (acidic, basic, hydrophobic, or polar)? c) What is the strongest interaction that can form between Asp123 and Arg29? You create a mutant Arg29> Lys d) What type of amino acid is Lys (acidic, basic, hydrophobic, or polar)? e) Would you expect this substitution mutation to cause major folding problems? Why or why not? You create mutant Arg29> Glu you discover that this mutant is unable to fold properly, so the protein is nonfunctional. f What type of amino acid is Glu (acidic, basic, hydrophobic, or polar)? g) How does this amino acid substitution cause the protein to fold incorrectly? You find another mutant that also as the same Arg29> Glu mutation. However, this mutant protein įs able to fold normally.…arrow_forward
- Imagine that a mutation has been discovered in the HBA1 gene, where amino acid residue # 1 in the alpha subunit is changed from valine to lysine. The structure of these two amino acids is shown below. How would this mutation affect the mobility of HbA in the gel?a) HbA with this mutation would have the same mobility as normal HbAb) HbA with this mutation would have the same mobility as HbSc) HbA with this mutation would have a faster mobility than normal HbA O d) HbA with this mutation would have a mobility somewhere in between HbS and normal HbAarrow_forwardHOW MANY DIFFERENT PROTEINS CAN BE CONSTRUCTED THAT ARE EXACTLY FOUR AMINO ACIDS LONG? (HINT: THERE ARE 20 POSSIBLE AMINO ACIDS.)arrow_forwardA researcher isolates a new protein and finds that it contains 0.755% serine by weight upon amino acid analysis. The molecular mass of serine is 105 g.mol-¹. What is the minimum molecular mass for the protein assuming only one Ser residue per protein molecule? mmin = The researcher estimates the molecular mass of the protein using gel electrophoresis. From this estimated molecular mass, the researcher concludes the protein contains 3 Ser residues. What is the estimated molecular mass of the protein as shown by gel electrophoresis? g.mol-¹ mest = g.mol-1arrow_forward
