Important Questions on Biomolecules






How many of the given compounds will give a positive Biuret test____?
Glycine, Glycylalanine, Tripeptide, Biuret





In alanylglycylleucylalanylvaline the number of peptide linkages is:



Monomeric subunits of proteins can sometimes assemble into higher order assemblies. Two such related human proteins and assemble into hexamers by sequential assembly of their subunits. However, while assembles into a hexameric ring. assembles into a linear hexameric arrangement as shown in the figure. Only hexameric assemblies of the proteins are functional.
The equilibrium constants for association , and of subunits at each step until pentamers are assembled, both for and , are the same . However, the equilibrium association constant of the final step of assembly into a hexamer is drastically different, for and for . Based on this information, choose the statement(s) that is(are) likely to be true.



Following tetrapeptide can be represented as
( are one letter codes for amino acids)
