- Each common amino acid has a specific letter that we use to represent it. For example, Lysine is represented by the letter K. What is that one letter that we use to represent Tryptophan? Only type one letter in the answer blank, and make sure it is capitalized.arrow_forwardThere are four amino acids shown in this problem: two are on this page, and two are on the following page. Only three of these amino acids are the "standard" amino acids shown in the table in the textbook. One of these is very similar to a standard amino acid, but its structure is a little bit different. Identify the three standard amino acids and give their name. Identity the non-standard amino acid. You do not have to give it a name, but you do have to (a) identify the standard amino acid to which it is most similar, and (b) describe as specifically as possible how it iş different.arrow_forwardHelp mearrow_forward
- This image represents the structure of a protein segment with amino acid side chains pointing off the polymer backbone. As we will learn soon, protein structure is formed from, and stablized by, different non-covalent interactions between the various functional groups found as side chains of the amino acids that make up the protein. For each of the five examples 1) - 5) below, identify the bond highlighted in yellow that forms between the two side chain functional groups from the list provided on the right.

- Doxorubicin, shown here, is an important chemotherapy drug used to treat avariety of cancers, including bladder cancer, breast cancer, and certain forms of leukemia. Doxorubicin works by binding to DNA in such a way that a portion of it penetrates the DNA double helix— a process called intercalation. During transcription— the process that forms RNA— portions of the DNA strands are temporarily separated for the base sequence to be read and then are reconnected. With bound doxorubicin, however, the double helix does not reform properly after the strands are separated, which disrupts replication— the process that forms an identical copy of DNA. Which portion of doxorubicin do you think intercalates into the DNA double helix, and why do you think it has little difficulty doing so?arrow_forwardChemistry 500 A Q2) 1 2 1 pick one 2 3 4 5 & All or none per row 1 to 7: (spelling counts) Monosodium glutamate (MSG) Center # electron regions (steric units) #lone electron pairs # bonded electron regions 6 7 3 7 S Legend: sodiumoxygen atom(red); carbon atom(black); nitrogen atom(blue); hydrogen atom(white).
