b. Val-Irp-lle-Ser

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

To locate The amino acid sequence of peprides isolated from rapeseed that may have limaer blond pressure is as follows. Draw the structure of each peptide and write the abbreviations in one letter.
(Part a)

(Part b)

Step 1: Introduction (Part a)

Amino acids contain an amine$\left(-{\mathrm{NH}}_2\right)$  and carboxylic acid $(-\mathrm{COOH})$ functional group. Both the functional groups are covalently bonded to the a-carbon. Amino acids are the building blocks for all proteins. When two amino acids react, an amide bond is formed between the amine group of one amino acid and the carboxylic group of the other amino acid, which joins the two amino acids. Proteins are macromolecules composed of repeating subunits known as amino acids, which determine protein shape and function.

Step 2: Given data (Part a)

To locate the amino acid The Arg-lle-Iyr sequence of peprides isolated from rapeseed that may have limaer blond pressure is as follows. Draw the structure of each peptide and write the abbreviations in one letter.

Step 3:Explanation(part a)

Step 4: Given data (Part b)

To locate The amino acid sequence Val-Irp-lle- The ser of peprides isolated from rapeseed that may have limaer blond pressure is as follows. Draw the structure of each peptide and write the abbreviations in one letter.

Step 5: Explanation (Part b)
