Z=atomic number (number of protons)
The number of protons is similar to the number of electrons when the atom doesn´t have charge. 
In this case :
"+1 charge" means that this atom would must have 1 electron more to be neutral, therefore the number of electrons of this element would be 109+1=110.

A=Z+N
A=mass number
Z=110 u
N=159 u

A=110 u + 159 u=269 u

Answer: the mass number (A) would be 269 u

Two different moving peaks are observed during the experiment.  The first peak moved at 0.5-2 mm/day and second peak at 200-400 mm/day. These peaks are observed due to difference in the synthesis and transport rate of the protein. Cytoplasmic protein has slow transport and sorting rate, indicates the first peak. The second peak corresponds to transmembrane protein.
