Question
Chapter 18.6, Problem 18.21P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Number of ways four different amino acids can be arranged in a peptide is to be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Many amino acids are linked together through amide bonds to form a biologically large molecule known to be proteins.
Amino
In protein the amide bond can link together with two amino acids to form a peptide bond.
Primary structure of protein is a sequence in which the amino acids linked by peptide bond in a protein.
The number of arrangement for each set of amino acid can be calculated from
