A piece of lead with a mass of 14.9 grams at a temperature of 92.5 degrees Celsius is dropped into an insulated container of wat
er. The mass of the water is 165 g and its temperature before adding the lead is 20.00 degrees Celsius. After adding the lead to the water, the water temperature rises to 20.20 degrees Celsius. What is the specific heat of the lead?

Answer:
a. Gly-Lys + Leu-Ala-Cys-Arg + Ala-Phe
b. Glu-Ala-Phe + Gly-Ala-Tyr
Explanation:
In this case, we have to remember which peptidic bonds can break each protease:
-) <u>Trypsin</u>
It breaks selectively the peptidic bond in the carbonyl group of lysine or arginine.
-) <u>Chymotrypsin</u>
It breaks selectively the peptidic bond in the carbonyl group of phenylalanine, tryptophan, or tyrosine.
With this in mind in "peptide a", the peptidic bonds that would be broken are the ones in the <u>"Lis"</u> and <u>"Arg"</u> (See figure 1).
In "peptide b", the peptidic bond that would be broken is the one in the <u>"Phe"</u> (See figure 2). The second amino acid that can be broken is <u>tyrosine</u>, but this amino acid is placed in the <u>C terminal spot</u>, therefore will not be involved in the <u>hydrolysis</u>.
