A peptide was found to have a molecular mass of about 650 and upon hydrolysis
produced Ala, Cys, Lys, Phe, and Val in a 1:1:1:1:1 ratio. The peptide upon treatment
with Sanger's reagent produced DNP-Cys and exposure to carboxypeptidase produced
valine. Chymotrypsin treatment of the peptide produced a dipeptide that contained
sulfur and has a UV absorbance, and a tripeptide. Exposure of the peptide to trypsin
produced a dipeptide and a tripeptide. Deduce the sequence of the peptide.
A. Val-Ala-Lys-Phe-Cys
B. Cys-Lys-Phe-Ala-Val
C. Cys-Ala-Lys-Phe-Val
D. Cys-Phe-Lys-Ala-Val
E. Val-Phe-Lys-Ala-Cys - D
Which amino acid has an R-group pKa closest to physiological pH?
A. lysine
B. histidine
C. glutamate
D. arginine
E. aspartate - B
Which is true regarding the orientation of the R-groups in beta structures?
A. In the parallel beta sheet structures the amino acid R-groups are all on the same
side of the sheet.
B. In the antiparallel beta sheet structure the R-groups on alternate strands are on the
same side of the sheet.
C. In parallel and antiparallel sheets consecutive R-groups on each peptide strand
alternate sides of the sheet.
D. Because of the free rotation around the alpha carbon, the R-groups can seek the
least crowded region and are not restricted to specific side of the sheet.
E. a and b - C
