- Mixtures of amino acids can be analyzed by first separating the mixture into its components through ion‑exchange chromatography. Amino acids placed on a cation‑exchange resin containing sulfonate (−SO−3)(−SO3−) groups flow down the column at different rates because of two factors that influence their movement: (1) ionic attraction between the sulfonate residues on the column and positively charged functional groups on the amino acids, and (2) aggregation of nonpolar amino acid side chains with the hydrophobic backbone of the polystyrene resin. Note that the ionic attraction is more important than hydrophobicity for this column media. For each pair of amino acids, identify which will be eluted first from a cation‑exchange column using a pH 7.0pH 7.0 buffer.arrow_forwardThe amino acid glycine is often used as the main ingredient of a bufferin biochemical experiments.

The total mass of beads in the column is 8.47 kg. On average, each bead weighs 0.0023 g and has an average of 18.4 * 10° positively charged amine groups that can adsorba negatively charged protein that passes through the column. A solution containing 2.07 mg/L of a protein is maintained at pH 6.3 and is passed through the ion exchange column at 0.215 L/min. The protein has a molecular weight of 154,000. The pk, of the amino groups on DEAE cellulose is 7.1, and the pl of the protein is 5.6. 2. A. How long can the column be operated before reaching 80% capacity (i.e., 80% of the amino groups on DEAE are bound to the protein through an ionic bond)? You may assume that one protein attaches to one + charge on the beads (although it's possible that proteins attach to more than one + charge). B.
