A scientist is conducting a Sanger's sequencing experiment to determine the number of polypeptides present in an oligomeric prot

ein. The molecular weight of the protein is 18000 g/mol . After the reaction of 520 mg of the protein with 1‑fluoro‑2,4‑dinitrobenzene, the peptide bonds were hydrolyzed with an acid. As a result, the scientist obtained 39 mg of 2,4‑dinitrophenyl serine. What is the number of the polypeptide chains present in the oligomer?

Answer:

Depends on molecule.

Explanation:

The number of the polypeptide chains present in the oligomer depends on the molecule. Some molecules have more polypeptide chains whereas some of them have less polypeptide chains. For example, Hemoglobin is a oligomer that consists of four Polypeptide Chains, two of these Polypeptide Chains are α-globin molecules, each comprise of 141 amino acids, and the other two are (β, γ, δ, or ε) globins, each consist of 146 amino acids.

Propose a mechanism for the following reaction.
raketka [301]
First, recognize that this is an elimination reaction in which hydroxide must leave and a double bond must form in its place. It is likely an E2 reaction. Here is an efficient mechanism:
1) Pre-reaction: Protonate the -OH to make it a good leaving group, water. H2SO4 or any strong H+ donor works. The water is positively charged but still connected to the compound.
2) E2: Use a sterically hindered base, such as tert-butoxide (tButO-) to abstract the hydrogen from the secondary carbon. [You want a sterically hindered base because a strong, non-sterically hindered base could also abstract a hydrogen from one of the two methyl groups on the tertiary carbon, and that leads to unwanted products, which is not efficient]. As the proton of hydrogen is abstracted, water leaves at the same time, creating an intermediate tertiary carbocation, and the 2 electrons in the C-H bond immediately are used to make a double bond towards the partial positive charge.
In the products we see the major product and water, as expected. Even though you have an intermediate, remember that an E2 mechanism technically happens in one step after -OH protonation.

I need help like extremely bad
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

First start with the ones we know

Explanation:

1. small - gene

2.chromosome - chromosomes contain genes so they must be bigger

3.dna- is all the chromosomes (genetic material)

A couple of homologous chromosomes, or homologs, are a set of one maternal and one paternal chromosome that pair up with each other inside a cell

a pair - so must be bigger than one chromosome

1. small - gene

2.chromosome - chromosomes contain genes so they must be bigger

3. homologus pair

4.dna- is all the chromosomes (genetic material)

now 5.

A gene consists of enough DNA to code for one protein, and a genome is simply the sum total of an organism's DNA. DNA is long and skinny, capable of contorting like a circus performer when it winds into chromosomes.

1. small - gene

2.chromosome - chromosomes contain genes so they must be bigger

3. homologus pair

4.dna- is all the chromosomes (genetic material)

5. genome - all the DNA

Compounds A and B react to form compounds C and D according to the equation: aA + bB → cC + dD. Under which conditions will the
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer: A. The reaction takes place in one step.

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

Molecularity of the reaction is defined as the number of atoms, ions or molecules that must colloid with one another simultaneously so as to result into a chemical reaction.

Order of the reaction is defined as the sum of the concentration of terms on which the rate of the reaction actually depends. It is the sum of the exponents of the molar concentration in the rate law expression.

Elementary reactions are defined as the reactions for which the order of the reaction is same as its molecularity and order with respect to each reactant is equal to its stoichiometric coefficient as represented in the balanced chemical reaction.

aA=bB\rightarrow cC+dD

Rate=k[A]^a[B]^b

k= rate constant

a= order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B
