Exam 2 Review Flashcards
1
Q
The isoelectric point
A
-The ph value in which the amino acid is least water soluble
-The ph value in which the amino acid has formal charges but an overall charge of
2
Q
Mutarotation
A
-Fishcher projection to haloformula
-An equilibrium process between hemi-acital and carbonyl forms of a sugar
-Describes the process for transitioning between D and L sugar
3
Q
Proton NMR Signals (splitting)
A
-One can generally use the n+1 rule to predict this concept
-Typically with adjacent carbons but not always
4
Q
hydrophobic pockets
A
-pi-stacking
-hydrocarbon chains
-nothing with a charge because that wants to interact with water
5
Q
Acidic catalysis
A
basic (+ charge) amino acid means acidic catalysis
6
Q
Wohl degradation
A
losses one carbon
