The pI of a peptide is determined by examining the ionizable groups when the protonated and deprotonated forms of each ionizable groups are in equilibrium. Consider the peptide Lys-Glu-Trp and answer the following questions:
a. Draw the structure of this peptide when all the ionizable groups are fully protonated.
b. How many ionizable groups does this peptide have? Label the pKa for each of the ionizable groups in the structure above.

The isoelectric point (pI) of a peptide is the pH at which the
peptide does not migrate in an electric field. Since the peptide is
zwitterionic, there are the same number of positive charges as
negative charges on the peptide population. The pI can be estimated
fairly accurately (within 0.1 or 0.2 pH units) from the pK values
of all the proton dissociable groups in the peptide. Using pK
values from the table at the right, estimate the pI value...

The structure of alanine is shown at the right in its fully protonated form. The pK_a for the ionizable groups are 2.3 (alpha-carboxyl group), and 9.7 (alpha-amino group). Calculate the pH at which alanine will have a net charge of 0. pH = Select the true statements about alanine when the pH is equal to its pl. If an electric field is applied, alanine will not move toward either electrode. Since alanine does not have an ionizable R group, the...

On your internship, you visit the Mass Spectrometry Lab. Mass spectrometry can identify short peptide fragments based on their molecular weights. Your fellow intern Jerry has neglected to label his tubes of amyloid beta peptide 42 after digesting them with some proteases that we learned about in Module 6: pepsin, trypsin, and chymotrypsin. Help him figure out what protease is in each tube. Jerry’s supervisor has the fragments listed in the same order as the original peptide primary sequence, which...
