- When a protein is denatured using heat Select one: a. its C-terminal will change. b. its tertiary structure will change. c. its amino acid sequence will change. d. its amino acid composition will change.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements are true about stacking and separating gels? a. The holes is the separating gel are much smaller than the ones in the stacking gel. b. The stacking gel is at a pH of 6.9, while separating gel is at a pH of 8.9 c. The higher pH in separating gel causes the glycine buffer to accelerate more and thus leaving behind the proteins to stack at the interface. d. The smaller holes in separating gel slows down the mobility of the proteins at the interface.arrow_forwardA protein was purified to homogeneity. Determination of the mass by gel filtration chromatography yields 60 kd. Chromatography in the presence of the denaturing agent, 6 M urea, yields a 30 kd species. When the chromatography is repeated in the presence of 6 M urea and DTT, a single molecular species of 15 kd results. Describe what these experiments tell you about the structure of the proteins.arrow_forward
- This is a visible spectra between 390-590 nm obtained during the protein separation process of haemoglobin and cytochrome c using CM Sephadex chromatography. I'd like the results shown on the image interpreted. Look for characteristic peaks or patterns that correspond to the absorption properties of these proteins in the visible range.arrow_forwardThere are 4 classes of biochemical families (Carbohydrates, Proteins, Lipids, and Nucleic Acids). Identify the biochemical family that is described by the statements below. 1. The monomer of this biochemical family is called an amino acid. 2. DNA is an example of this biochemical family. 3. Glucose and sucrose are an example of this biochemical family. 4. Vitamin A, steroids, waxes, and phospholipids are all examples of this biochemical family. 5. This diverse biochemical family is known for being nonpolar and insoluble in water. 6. This biochemical family is the genetic material in an organism and is made up of a phosphate, sugar, and base monomer. 7. The monomer of this biochemical family contains an amine and a carboxylic acid functional group. Two monomers are linked together through condensation polymerization of these two functional groups.arrow_forwardYou have a soluble protein that is highly flexible and is only 23 kDa in size. What is the most suitable technique (X-ray crystallography, NMR, cryo-EM) for structure determination of this protein? Explain your reasoning.arrow_forward
