Question
Chapter 2, Problem 3P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The given amino acids should be matched to the appropriate given side chain type.
Concept introduction:
Amino acids are so named because they all are weak acids. All amino acids have at least two dissociable hydrogens, (diprotic), and some have three dissociable hydrogens and are triprotic.

- . Separating Glycated Hb From Normal Hb (Integrates with Chapters 5and 6.) Human hemoglobin can react with sugars in the blood(usually glucose) to form covalent adducts. The a-amino groups ofN-terminal valine in the Hb b-subunits react with the C-1 (aldehyde)carbons of monosaccharides to form aldimine adducts, whichrearrange to form very stable ketoamine products. Quantitation ofthis “glycated hemoglobin” is important clinically, especially fordiabetic individuals.

- Peptides. 1. Draw the peptide Ala-Glu-Gly-Lys, as it would occur at physiological pH = 7.4. The R groups of Ala and Gly are not acidic or basic, therefore do not have a pka and the charge on these R groups is therefore independent of pH. Glu is acidic and Lys is basic, therefore the charge on these amino acids is pH dependent. The pKas are shown below. pKa N-term = 9.0 C-term = 3.5 Glu4.1 Lys = 10.5 2.

- Draw the structure. Saccharide X occurs in the roots of several species of plants. Deduce the structure of saccharide x from the following data: 1. Acidic hydrolysis of 1 mol of stachyose yields 2 mol of D-galactose, 1 mol of D-glucose, and 1 mol of D-fructose. 2. Stachyose is a nonreducing sugar. 3. Treating stachyose with an a-galactosidase produces a mixture containing D-galactose, sucrose, and a nonreducing trisaccharide called raffinose. 4. Acidic hydrolysis of raffinose gives D-glucose, D-fructose, and D-galactose. Treating raffinose with an a-galactosidase yields D-galactose and sucrose. Treating raffinose with invertase (an enzyme that hydrolyzes sucrose) yields fructose and melibiose 5. Methylation of saccharide x followed by hydrolysis yields 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-methyl-D-galactose, 2,3,4-tri-0-methyl-D-galactose, 2,3,4-tri-O-methyl-D-glucose, and 1,3,4,6-tetra-O-methyl-D-fructose.arrow_forwardPlease help me with this question.
