(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The charge category of lysine.

Introduction: Lysine can be defined as an amino acid that is essential for the biosynthesis process of proteins. Lysine also has many other applications in the field of medicine.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The property of lysine that enables it to interact with the DNA.

Introduction: The DNA or the deoxyribonucleic acid is composed of nucleotides, and it comprises genetic information that is essential for development, and reproduction of organisms.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The effect of acetylation on lysine interaction with the DNA and gene expression activation.

Introduction: The process of acetylation is a chemical reaction. The addition of an acetyl group into a compound is defined as the process of acetylation. The reverse of this reaction is deacetylation.
