Q

Instead of Asparagine and glutamine having amide groups, we now have carboxylate groups which makes them acids. Good to go

Q

They are catalyzed by trypsin and chymotrypsin. Trypsin cleaves the carboxyl end of arginine and chymotrypsin cleaves the carboxyl end of tyrosine, tryptophan, and phenylalanine.

A
