What effect does the size of an amino acid on the retention factor?

Biology
2 answers:
Anarel [89]3 years ago

According to proteomic data analysis, the N-terminus residues highly influence the retention of amino acids due to their role in ion-pairing. Every amino acid has a retention coefficient factor depending on the N-terminus residues it contains. Therefore, the longer the amino acid the higher the likelihood of it having high N-terminus residues and consequent high retention co-efficient.

<span>The retention factor is a value used by chemists performing thin-layer chromatography which indicates the distance a particular compound traveled across a stationary phase in contrast to the solvent. While the size of an amino acid is not the only factor involved, generally, the larger the amino acid, the slower it will travel, ultimately leading to a smaller retention factor.</span>

How can a material at a certain temperature have all of its molecules at the same energy?
pychu [463]

Answer:

The average kinetic energy of the molecules is proportional to absolute temperature. At any given temperature, the molecules of all gases have the same average kinetic energy.

Explanation:

When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. As atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases. The motion and spacing of the particles determines the state of matter of the substance. Solids, liquids and gases all expand when heat is added.

A particular immune system cell produces thousands of antibodies per second for release into the body. What type of organelle wo
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The rough endoplasmic reticulum

Explanation:

The rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle that has the main function of producing proteins for the cell.

Antibodies are a type of protein, so they are made by the ER.

Since the immune cell can rapidly produce antibodies, it must have a significant amount of rough ER to make the proteins.
