Question 28

Phenylalanine and __________ are nonpolar and have aromatic side chains.

serine

methionine

tryptophan

threonine

tyrosine

A.

Volumetric

B.

Colorimetric

C.

Radioisotope

D.

Hydrometric

E.

None of the above

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

25). B. Colorimetric

If a solute absorbs light at a particular wavelength, the absorbance is directly proportional to the concentration of the substance in solution. Ex: anti-proliferative assay, ATPase activity.

26). C.  Gel filtration

Gel filtration chromatography separates proteins that differ in size. A mixture of proteins is carefully layered on the top of a glass cylinder packed with porous beads. Smaller proteins travel through the column more slowly than larger proteins.

27). D. lysine and arginine

There are three amino acids that have basic side chains at neutral pH. These are arginine (Arg), lysine (Lys), and histidine (His).

28). C. tryptophan
