Compare the two peptides shown below, which can be ordered from chemical supply companies: Time left 0:58:26 H₂N NH OH O b. O c. NH. CH3 Which statement is correct about these peptides? OH Peptide A Peptide B O a. Peptide A can only be in an alpha helix and cannot form a beta-strand; Peptide B can be in alpha helix or beta strand Peptide B will have a higher absorbance at 280nm because it is shorter in length Peptide A will have a higher absorbance at 280nm because it has more aromatic amino acids O d. Both peptide A and peptide B lack any acidic amino acids

Agamemnon just got his first octapeptide to sequence. Identify the correct sequence from the data gathered below. He first did a complete acid hydrolysis and identified the amino acids using HPLC. He found he had a lle, Ala, Ser, Asp, Asn, Phe, His, and an Arg. He submitted the octapeptide to conditions of Edman degradation and got the structure below. H. но He used carboxypeptidase and generated a His and a heptapeptide. He used chymotrypsin and generated a5-amino acid sequence and a 3-amino acid sequence. He used trypsin and generated a 2-amino acid sequence and a 6-amino acid sequence. Partial hydrolysis of the nonapeptide yielded the fragments RIS, NAH, and SF among others.
About a decade ago, it was more common to use peptide mass mapping to identify a protein cut from a gel. Peptide mass mapping involves digesting the protein with trypsin and then measuring the peptide masses using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The more superior method of identifying a protein from a gel is to digest the protein with trypsin and then use liquid chromatography to separate the peptides. The separated peptides are then electrosprayed into a tandem mass spectrometer. The MS-MS data is uploaded into a database such as MASCOT for protein identification. Explain why the LC-MS-MS method is superior to the peptide mass mapping method.
This structure indicated a peptide bond between alanine and threonine. Using a pen, draw a “trans” and a “cis” peptide bond with the peptide bond lying in the plane of the paper. Draw a second view of each peptide bonds now looking down/along the peptide bond (i.e. one atom of the peptide bond will be in front and will obscure the second one behind it). Using a circular arrow, demonstrate how the torsion angle can be directly “read” from the picture. You can do this with an accuracy of ~10°. Provide an explanatory caption.

One of the most advanced methods for determining a protein sequence is tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Select from the list of statements below all that applies to MS/MS. Group of answer choices CID is one way of performing tandem MS experiments The experiment start by chopping the protein into smaller peptide fragments using an enzyme These peptide fragments are later introduced into the mass spectrometer to determine their molecular weight Peptide fragments are selected for further fragmentation by collision with an inert gas There are only 4 types of ions which can result from MS/MS fragmentation: a, b, x, and y ions The a and b ions are the ones with the original C terminus, whereas the x and y ions are the ones with the original N-terminus All of the above
